The Future of Car Completely Electric

The specs for Tesla Motor's new car are in: an all-electric, four-door, five-seat sedan that gets in excess of 240 miles per charge and accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in under six seconds. It will be built in what the company is calling the "greenest auto manufacturing plant in the world" on the outskirts of San Jose, Calif., the self-proclaimed world headquarters of clean technology. In other words, the car of the future is on its way here. Based on its mule, Tesla executives assert that its final product will perform with all the agility and smoothness of BMW and Mercedes' luxury sedans, but, instead of chugging gas, it will run an electric charge.
