Tesla Motors, Inc. (Tesla) and Toyota Motor Corporation (TMC) today announced that they intend to cooperate on the development of electric vehicles, parts, and production system and engineering support
The most exciting concept shown at the 2009 Frankfurt auto show is an electric sports car, the Audi e-tron. Borrowing body lines from the Audi R8, it can't help but look good. And boasting specs like 3,319 pound-feet of torque, it can't help but make gearheads drool.
Still, less acceleration, lower top speed and not yet in production, I think Tesla can sleep easy for another while!
The plan at Tesla Motors has always been to go beyond its first vehicle, the $100,000 electric Roadster, to make more-affordable electric cars--a plan that had come to depend on the startup receiving a hefty loan from the government. Today, the Department of Energy announced that it has approved that loan--in the amount of $465 million. The money could allow Tesla to bring its Model S electric sedan to market, as planned, by 2011.
Auto critic Lawrence Ulrich tells us to "get ready to pull the plug" on Tesla motors. Mr. Ulrich says that transmission glitches and the delayed roll out of its model "S" roadster is proof that the demise of Tesla is around the corner.... On the contrary, the revenge of the electric car is around right around the corner!
Tesla Motors and San Jose announced Wednesday that the city has been tapped as the future home for the electric-car maker's factory and new headquarters.
Both will be located on about 90 acres of land adjacent to the water-treatment plant off Zanker Road near Highway 237 in North San Jose.
