2 years for the 35k model to come out I believe.
The true business of people should be to go back to
school and think about whatever it was they were
thinking about before somebody came along and told
them they had to earn a living.

...at the lowest the dollar has been in 11 years.
It's good news, a cheaper electric car. Be happy.

Interesting how when people pay that kind of money for a car, it's socially incorrect because so many people are starving, homeless, etc. But if it's a Tesla, then the dollar figure becomes irrelevant.
For me personally, as I've stated before, until performance reaches comparable levels to combustion engines of today - I'm not interested. But then again, once that happens - you'll be paying a pretty penny to charge these cars up - so the savings point will be moot.

Good point.
Here is a picture of Tesla's $35,000 car...

I can't see the batteries lasting that long in the $35k Tesla. A friend has the expensive model and he cant get to the Okanagan without a charge.

I dont know...3.2 seconds from 0-100 on the Ludicrous Speed upgrade is probably faster than most cars let alone SUV's out there.
Though I dont know about this Bio Hazard thing..Positive pressure to keep the bad things out.

Give me some beans and I can do that...I think the Wife would call that a Bio Hazard though!
My Wife asked me if I knew what her favorite flower was?
