Tesla Zooms Into Fashion Island
Tonight, California-based Tesla Motors store opens the doors of a new showroom at Fashion Island from 5 to 9 p.m. The innovative car company, known for its electric supercar, will be unveiling the beta version of Tesla’s premium sedan, Model S, due out mid- 2012.
The Model S seats five adults and two children and offers three battery packs with a 160-, 230- or 300-mile range. Any conventional outlet can charge the car, and there’s a fast charge option that takes just 45 minutes. Since there is not an internal combustion engine or transmission tunnel, the interior of the car has optimal cargo space. There's even a trunk under the hood. High-tech fans will also appreciate the 17-inch touchscreen for radio, web access and navigation.
