Tesla S Electric Sedan Unveiled!

I’m not sure where companies like Tesla and Fisker are getting these great designs from, but keep them coming!

Tesla released their second electric car yesterday in the form of an electric 4 door sedan. Called the Model S Sedan, this beautiful car it built upon the chassis of what some speculate is actually a Mercedes C or E-class (due to the relationship Tesla has with Mercedes and the lack of money to actually design and build their own bespoke chassis). With a super sleek and sexy exterior, large trunk and amazingly simple cockpit, the Tesla Sedan is sure to strike all the right chords with enthusiasts. Whether the larger bodied car can live up to the hype on the environmental side, with sufficient range and power is another story.

Tesla says the car can hit 0-60 in 5.5 seconds and will have a range of around 300 miles. All of this at a price of around $50,000. Though the range is a bit short compared to other hybrid and small engined sedans from Volvo, BMW, Lexus and similar brands that have a $50,000 target price, Tesla is banking on the piece of mind that it gives people and the money it saves them at the pump will more than make up for its shortcomings.

How nice would it be to have an all Tesla garage? I wouldn’t mind two cars that perform like that and look like that!

Panoramic roof and sleek silhouette provide modern looks from the outside and a super place to be on the inside.
