this means that they should be able to make a practicle one too. You know...one that is meant to go about 80 mph and not so aerodynamic.

I'd rather go 200mph. and 0-60 in under 4 secs is very important in a daily driver.

I was just saying that not everyone wants to sepnd a milliion dolars for that kind of performance and not use any gas. I menat that they should be able to make an affordable one with less styling and performance everyone can buy.

this is just one of many cars in development right now as part of the xprize competition, another one is right here in Cbad CA, where the winner will get a multi million dollar prize to put these cars into production and made affordable. A huge prize for the victor! This company here is in Bev Hills CA. The one in Cbad has a car that is much like the Tesla but from what Ive seen will completely out perform it.

It sounds almost too good to be true; but if it is true, and they build an affordable version, great!
