Ride in Style with Electric Car Tesla - New York Post

There are no washing machines that use a 220V power source, as you stated in your Tesla article. Only dryers and electric stoves use 220 volts.

if we could cut down 60%of emissions just by going electric and that's before we even get to renewable energy sources . imagine the how much more could be cut once we have geo-thermal, wind, wave,tidal, Solar..etc on the table And talk about maintenance there are like 4 moving parts and 0 oil so it's extremely efficient and as time goes by batteries will have more power and will be much smaller. I wont be surprised in 10 years if tesla makes car that can go 600mi and 200mph on a single charge

[MrDJourdain]

intial,investors and R&D so that they can develop and infrastructure for mass market distribution. 2007 Tesla Roadster=100k ,2011 Tesla Model S sedan= 50K, and recently Elon Musk said there is a 3rd model in development that will be in 30-40k but after fed and state tax credits and rebates it will actually cost significantly less. (See the trend?)

P.S. Even if every American traded their cars for a tesla and charged from coal we would still produce only 40% of current emissions

[MrDJourdain]

Yes, Im sure we would all love 25-40,000 lineup, but what we have to understand is that like with every tech that is new, the initial release is always expensive ,anyone remember the iPhone back in 07? It was $600 and it couldn't do 1/4 of what it does now. Remember HDTV's were thousands of dollars and you only saw them on MTV cribs and had to be rich to have one. now you ca find a nice set 500-700 bucks. That's what happens ,it's expensive so that the revenue can go into back to repaying

@nuen8 You wanna explain that??? Bill Gates will NOT buy a sports car - they want a little more from a car thatn looks!!!! COLLEGE STUDENTS???? Like college will not take everything they've got?? ANd you can bitch and moan as long as ou want - tell me what a GREAT car it is - but if I do not have $110,000 (the starting price for the car) then I AM NOT driving it home!!!!!!! It does not matter WHAT you have - if I cannot afford it at $110,000 - when I can buy a GM car for $20,000!!!!!

[Earthlinked]

@nuen8 And if few people buy it - becasue it is so expensive - then what is actually achieved? NOTHING!!!! 500,000 cars are sold every year and 100 are electric - who cares - it means NOTHING!!!!!!!! So stay on you knees to your Mideastern gods and pray they don't get pissed at you - they'll stop the oil flow - and you'll be the one that has to suck harder - than your normal sucking!!!!

[Earthlinked]

Too bad that it is so expensive - there will be few sales!!!! Here's an idea - make a cheap version that REAL PEOPLE can drive!!!!!!!!!

[BluJaguar9x]

@Kdollar84

Umm, they went public at the end of June. NASDAQ:TSLA

[gtafuture]

Hmmm....now we need something that does not run on coal....This vehicle is still not green

[STBNY]

@RBDPRODUCTIONZ2 hahahah made my day.. solar power i guess, hydro charge, gas powered battery chargers, crank charger, lol there will be a way.

[SteveXnycperformance]

@Kdollar84 Gm with the Volt will beat Tesla to the market.Tesla does not have enough tooling and factory to compete.remember the CEO of Tesla use to be the CEO of Paypal(bankers).what do banker know about car and companies? invest u money in Obama motor (GM) might be more promising :(.no private company will remain.the socialist one will bail them out by take-over. GM Volt is self charging while all other need to Plug-in.Plus the cheapest Tesla ele car is $50,000.Tesla,riding on a great man name

[SteveXnycperformance]

They are people of "CHANGE". they should change they china underwear, cause they are full of sh!t.

[roaming1978]

@RBDPRODUCTIONZ2 ..Perfect Point!!

[SteveXnycperformance]

YOU STILL NEED ELECTRICITY GENERATED BUY FOSSIL FUEL TO "CHARGE/CHANGE" that electric "chair" Car. If you should get hit buy a 30 to tractor trailer your soul will be in communist china and related nation....LOL.

Don`t forget kid .this is the new "SMART" cars for "DUMB" people.

SMART HINT: Air, ocean water, and all other kinetic energy are "FOSSIL fuel.Natural clean energy comes from the earth to become part of the ecosystem which involve eco science(Recycle).

[SteveXnycperformance]

General motors not government motor.Build the electric car back in 1980`s call the EV1.all the technology from the GM engineering was sold to Toyota(fix da pedal) and other car company by Union scamp.The union will scrap the import market to regain profits In government Motors.Toyota and Honda + other are feeling the heat from foxcom for in humain labor.GO BUY a CHEVY VOLT.It electric plus it has a gasoline generation for batteries recharge. :(

[SteveXnycperformance]

Who is going to pay for the new "ELECTRIC CAR RE-CHARGE STATION"?. Yes the city will need new building and equipment for ele-re charge. YOU the tax payer will slave for it. WHO will sell the electricity? government bankers. It all part of next year taxation.:(.

[rollerpodger]

@SteveXnycperformance this car gets 240-270 miles off a $6 electrical charge that means an equivalent fossil fuel vehicle would have to get 120+ miles to the gallon; and that's with the current government subsidized fuel prices. There are no such cars available or on the drawing boards that use a conventional or hybrid power plant capable of this. Its not zero point energy but its a start and certainly a hell of allot better that moaning like a bitch and doing nothing

[rollerpodger]

@SteveXnycperformance you should work on learn how to write and express yourself better than a retarded monkey; but then again you work on a car like a retard as well. Have fun being a stupid fuck looks like its worked wonders for you so far

[SteveXnycperformance]

@rollerpodger Here we Don`t work for fat ass american`t (citizen Cain) who support communist, living on welfare. Your president is a retarded money, and you are a SLUG sucking his ass for socialism welfare, and free health care for your Bald head and Over weight sickness. the real world would appear stupid to you, because you are a idealoge (Talk,Talk,Talk) not idealist cause u fat..lol. when are you going to do something for your self and get off public assistance?.

[rollerpodger]

@SteveXnycperformance actually I work as a mechanic for Rolls Royce you illiterate dooshebag; I make more in a week than you do in a year; you know what me thinks you hate this electric car and spit all your ignorant shit because you are one of those types that is too fucking stupid to diagnose a blown fuse, and wouldn't know how to use a multi-meeter if someone payed you a million dollars to try .........fucking clown shoes

[SteveXnycperformance]

@rollerpodger whats different? the hugely over price parts which are a copy of GM pioneering. It not what you make. it how much you save? in your case, you are living above your means "CREDIT", which make you ultra financial slave. after taxes, interest on the cc,+ fees. you are a sucker...LOL. if you are true, your should compete your skills against mine. what do you have? to run one OF my hand build rides?. You are a idealoge(talk sh!t).My first ele car was at the age of 4..LOL.

[rollerpodger]

@SteveXnycperformance I have watched your vids. I wouldn't let you change the spark plug in my snow blower. Oh and everything I own is bought and paid for including all my tools; with every comment you leave you just show more people how brutally stupid you really are. Not very smart for a guy that has his line of work as his channel content and is commenting on a video of the same genre..........were done here have fun thinking your the shit and shoveling your shit Buick's around

[SteveXnycperformance]

@rollerpodger take care of you fat sickness and your losing of hair ,are you losing at the balls too?...lol. Get ready to lose your wealth with obama law. it always nice to see the rich eat in a ditch. I will be there to serving you tax slave...lol.you are slow and weight down like a roll Royce(Roach) to compete with this. later joe..blow me later.

[BluJaguar9x]

@SteveXnycperformance

I think you're a little bit confused about what makes a fuel a "fossil fuel" ... oil and coal are "fossil fuels" because they are the remains of dead plants and animals from millions of years ago. Once you dig it all up, you can't just wait a little while for more to show up.

Wind, sun, rivers, waves, and geothermal are considered renewable because they are generated constantly, and can be harvested, rather than depleted.

P.S. USA grid is only ~50% coal (and dropping)

[toyotas2006]

Cool man

They are testing these engines in Toyota Rav4s and Lexus RX

Expect Toyota to have one ready for sale by 2012
