Tesla Roadster: Electric Car Reviews

Model: Tesla Roadster , MK 1 - Years 2008-2012

The Tesla Roadster is an electric car that impresses: first of all, it is one of the first "open-top" electric vehicles; additionally, it features a three-phase asynchronous electric motor that reaches 14,000 RPM, achieving acceleration from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.9 seconds. It is equipped with lithium-ion batteries that allow it to travel nearly 250 miles on a full charge. The vehicle weighs about 2,645 lbs and bears some resemblance to cars like the Lotus Elise; however, its performance is significantly superior. For a complete charge, it takes 3.5 hours from a charging station and can take up to 10 hours with a standard 220-volt home outlet.
