I saw this yesterday...a game changer indeed. Top speed over 250 mph, with a range of 600 miles is crazy! Did anyone else see the video of this thing accelerating from behind , from a stop? OMG............

Seems to me it makes more sense than things like hydrogen. Where you gonna buy hydrogen? On the flip side, where you buy electricity? I'm pretty sure, anywhere. And Tesla will charge you for free.

I really hope so. Tesla cars are certainly impressive. I can't wait for any significant price drops for these cars.
