Tesla Rocks
Posted by austin under Personal
I got to check out the new Tesla Motors vehicle which they had on display at the TED conference. Electric candy that makes you go hmmmm. I recently got rid of a toy, but this certainly got me thinking. Potholes in Montreal and a lot of investing in my current startups puts this toy on the wishlist for now, but wouldn’t it be nice

Well just realized I wrote hybrid, but the Tesla is an electric car. My bad.

The Tesla and all other electric super cars are awesome! (check out the X1 at: http://wrightspeed.com/x1.html) When you think about how we use our cars in Canada, our “nice” cars are completely impractical for about 5 months of the year because of the weather conditions. The Tesla would not only be way faster, but cost less to maintain, and be easier on the environment. On top of that, they’re much faster than Porsches, Lambos, or Ferraris for less than half the price. Can’t wait to get these in Canada!

Very cool cars. I’m definitely thinking a Tesla car would be cool.

Yes, the Tesla is way cool! But, it’s NOT a hybrid as the caption to the pic indicates. A hybrid vehicle, by definition, is a vehicle that uses two or more distinct power sources to propel the vehicle. The Tesla has no gasoline/internal combustion engine. It has only one power source - electricity.
