Couldn't resist sorry! Actually looks very interesting.
They didn't say what the power source (type of battery/fuel cell)was. As a £50,000 2 seater they are a bit out of reach of most folks but a useful forward looking concept and sporty with it.:bannana: In the fuel starved future I think most cars will have to go down the ultra-light route with carbon fibre/composite bodies rather than the heavy steel pressings of today. Since most power/fuel is used during acceleration the less mass involved the better. There are safety implications of course which would largely disappear if all passenger cars were considerably lighter. How you deal with heavy goods vehicles sharing the same roads is another matter however.
I heard that some cars are built holding a container that stores a highly flammable liquid used for fuel, when part used this sloshes around with oxygen in there too! How did H&S pass that?grober said:just looked at the tesla site and it appears they use lithium ion batteries.-just as long as they don't go on fire
