New Tesla Sedan - 04.11.2009, 07:32 PM

I got this e mail from Tesla they are starting to build an all electric sedan, looks as sporty as a 5 series Bimmer 0-60 in 5.6 secs and can go 300 miles on a charge with thier largest battery....here is a link

I really like this car

I'm still trying to figure that out too...Maybe the 5 adults go in the front and rear seats and you just stuff the kids in the trunk?

I did find out it will be running a liquid cooled electric motor putting out 400 hp, and due to the car being electric it saves a lot of space to make the interior roomier, there is a trunk under the front hood....too bad Tesla didnt recieve a bunch of the bailout money

and there are 2 worthless seats in the back area so it could classify as a SUV

I figured out how 7 people can fit in there. One person drives, one person is I'm the front passenger seat, and 4 wonderful ladies and I sit in the backseat. I'm sure you could ft 7 that way...:LoL:

Also, the two seats in the back aren't useless. I would refer to them as the loveseats and reserve them for the guy and one of the girls that are sitting in the back seat for when they need private time on the 300 mile road trip.

I can do you one better. How do you fit 7 people IN the cab of a regular cab truck?

You got me driving, a girl sitting in my lap sideways, my boy on the right with the same, and stack em 3 high in the center.

I have done some research on the Dodge Circuit EV, it does remind you of a Tesla roadster crossed with some Dodge styling, if the price is resonable I would buy one...some people are calling it a baby Viper

I have checked that out on youtube before. It does look like a little viper. Any idea on the price thought?

Word - the Karma is the most beautiful car in the world right now if you ask me. Not to mention it's technology. I love what Tesla is doing though too - great to see this stuff.
