The First of their Kind: Tesla Roadster and Model S

[M67v]

Brother and Sister Electric cars. The Model X is the dad.

I really love Tesla and all their cars..the Model S is simply amazing.

- It`s good looking, amazing performance and very futuristic!

Too pad my wallet forces me to stick with my Opel...the irony is with all the fuel I´m burning, I could probably afford a Model S after a while...but sadly I can`t wait, and have to use my car, but I would love to be a proud owner of a Model S or the new Model X some day...

It would feel like Christmas and my Birthday combined :)

Thank you to all Tesla Employees :)

Screw the music we want to hear engine noise! ---oh, wait

i have more fiath in H2 car, it also use electich power, but it makes that electrich out of H2. you can refill it at any time, and it will take the same time as a normal car. and still zero emission. end it also has more rang than electrich. the only down side is ther arent many refuleing station for H2 yet

[Nichen]

Seriously WTF is wrong with people now a days....I mean as soon as there is a video about EVs on youtube the ranting begins. I mean WTF! Why can't they just leave the EV enthusiasts alone! If you ask me then I would say that people who are anti EV are right-wing, anti-human and anti-nature. It's as simple as that.

This is not a luxury car!!!Great tech but crap interior!!!

[randyseck]

@mikennamorato Crap Interior? Seriosuly, what new car has a Crap Interior? WHy dont you give me 60 thousand for my 1990 Coupe Deville, and then bitch about a Crappy Interior for the Money. And trust me, I love the SHIT out of my 21 year old CAR!!!! What new car has a "Crap" Interior LMFAO

[ncouchot]

@randyseck It's subjective, and it's obviously personal preference... but I'd say any Ford or GM vehicle pretty easily qualify as being a "crap" interior in my book. They certainly don't make vehicles to the standards of MB, BMW or Porsche. And to that end, you do get what you pay for... and it's all about how much you care to spend on the finer details. Ford or GM does not provide those details, but then again they don't charge you for them either.

That Model S looks like the rear of a Jaguar XF the side of an Aston Martin Rapide the front of a Citroen DS5 and the headlights of an Audi A6. Mash Up

[rkononenko]

what is the song/tune that's played in the background?

[adrianflyfly]

one oil baron watched this video

[Leu4Life]

@adrianflyfly there`s two of them now :))

[HReality]

Im really looking forward to this.. I did the math and sent an email explaining.. my 16k 2005 car has cost me over 33k in the last 6 years (gas and maint.). Since my commute is 67.3 miles 1 way this would be the ONLY car that could actually REPLACE mine. Visited the site and looking forward to the actual mass release.

[123finedesign]

why the hell does everyone complain about the price?? This is a LUXARY car that is competing with high end cars such as BMW.

After this car, Tesla is planning on making cheaper electric cars that the public can afford like a crossover, van, etc

[Zantetskuen]

@123finedesign I don't believe they are planning to make their crossover much cheaper. Their crossover is still going to be a second generation vehicle (luxurious and expensive), they are planning a smaller, cheaper 3rd generation car for the future but in the meantime they need to start earning quarterly profits.

[morpheusmann]

I want a Black Model S!!

[pjmccartneytv]

Actually, the Tesla Model S can charge up from 0-100% in just 45 minutes. Shouldn't be a problem unless you're driving more than 300 miles everyday. :/

[ClownFight]

@CortexEffect94 Why does the public need something for $30-$40 Thousand? I can afford one and I take delivery in 2013. Poor countries like the USA may not be able to afford the Tesla but richer countries will provide valuable export dollars for American industry. The Nissan leaf is a golf cart. You ARE a stoner and 5% of stoners develop psychotic disorders directly related to long term Marijuana use. And finally, there is no need to have an internal combustion engine in a car.

[ClownFight]

@CortexEffect94 Have you even read the specs for this car or are you too busy pulling on that bong? The Tesla Type S can do 350 miles on a charge. I do about 50 miles a day so a charge will take 45 minutes overnight, like my iPhone. If I want to travel across country I'll take a plane and rent a car at the airport. I might do 350 miles in a single day once a year, then I'll still sleep overnight in a place near a socket. What are you... Amish? How do you charge your cellphone stoner?

[ClownFight]

@CortexEffect94 When you tell someone they don't don't know what they're talking about... sometimes you're gonna get called on it stoner.

Batteries are fine, hemp fuel is ridiculous, so is cooking oil fuel and every other ancient method of burning stuff to push pistons to move cars. It makes no sense to carry little power generators around in each car when a centralized energy generator is connected to every home and business. You shouldn't have bought those shares in that HEMP fuel plant 'eh?

[kimberlyfawn]

Can't wait!

[ClownFight]

@CortexEffect94 Marijuana was colloquially known as Indian Hemp long before the invention of Hippies and it referred specifically to the cannabis plant. Industrial hemp products are made from Cannabis plants selected to produce an abundance of fiber. To satisfy the UN Narcotics Convention, some hemp strains have been developed which contain minimal levels of THC, one of the psychoactive molecules that produces the "high" associated with marijuana.

Back to the bong for you CortexEffect

[mikewil5]

I've been waiting for the Model S! Beautiful~ I really want to get one.

[ThePostal67]

Mine is going to have a trailer with four hundred square feet of Photovoltaics...!

When does the free giveaway start? I am broke!

[csbrudy]

Besides, battery technology is experiencing breakthroughs like never before. I figure we'll batteries that charge up in five minutes within five years...

[ClownFight]

@CortexEffect94 writes; "we need a Hemp Fuel/Electric Hybrid"

Why is it always about HEMP with you guys? Isn't smoking it enough for you?

Batteries are fine, the doubts about lithium batteries come from the oil companies watching their product becoming redundant and trying to spread the fear. Batteries are fine.

[utuberify]

just ......beautiful .

[vlafaille]

Oh ya baby! Gonna get me one of these.

[oates45]

Sounds like it has a weird knock.

[sw35xm]

@CortexEffect94 Well I should've clarified and pointed out I mean why are we still stuck on purely gas driven vehicles. I can't do anything about it but I hope they start soon.

[FormulaWill]

"The first of their kind" is blatantly stolen from Porsche's marketing campaign for the Cayenne from its launch.

[2xlbu4u]

@FormulaWill Except the Cayennes are much less "the first of their kind" than the Model S

[Tritium8]

@FormulaWill well, Porsche lied and tesla is'nt... ICE are anything BUT new .)

[bonds911]

best cars eva



[sw35xm]

Why electric cars aren't the norm.is.beyond me

[davidajmartinez]

Great video and great line: "Does your other car know I'm coming?"

[extremepsychogamer]

@davidajmartinez

more like "does that pedestrian know I'm coming?"

[scorpion251970]

Ok, now a model for the rest of us poor people. A sedan somewhere in-between in size between the two cars

[grungerman]

@scorpion251970 It'll come when they've got the experience and the cashola!
