Almost six years after our first journey in a prototype Tesla Roadster in
Santa Monica, we mashed the accelerator handle on an example of the company's
Model S sedan. How was it? We'll have a fuller account from our brief drive for
you on Monday.
In a few words, however, it felt like an automobile a wonderful thing,
indeed. It's not without its quirks; but in the quick ride we had in a presentation
model followed by a drive in the regular Signature Series car, we were frightened
with the stonktastic torque and the everyday drivability. Despite the car's
heft, the low center of gravity keeps it comparatively toss able.
It's not vaporware. The company's current rotating out one vehicle per
day, ramping up to 80 per day by the end of the year. The invigorated NUMMI
plant is a inspiring thing to behold. The product they've come up with seems
like amazing the target demo will totally buy into. The Tesla faithful likely
won't be dissatisfied. Time and sales figures will tell if it's sufficient to
pull people away from BMW and Audi.
