Ok, Jeremy Clarkson has finally got his hands on a Tesla, here is what he thought of the car.....

The man has some good points. I think i'd prefer the Honda over the Tesla.

"Right! It's on---I think. There's no noise at all."

"Put it into Drive. It has a one-speed gearbox. They tried it with a two-speed, and that kept breaking, so one it is. We're in Drive, and I'm ready."

"GOD ALMIGHTY!"

"It's BIBLICALLY quick!!!"

"The chassis is aluminium."

"The volt-head has overtaken the petrol-head! And yes, yes, I've just heard---it is snowing in hell!"

"Perhaps, then, the best idea is to have two Teslas---so you can use one while the other is charging."

"Shame it doesn't come with a CD of V8 noises, really..."

:lol: :hyst: :clap:

I could watch this guy all day. :clap:

I love his comment at about 3:40 describing the weight distribution of the car compared to himself.

:lol:

"But with that big lump of battery in the middle, it's kind of like me---thin at one end, thinning at the other, and then sort of a big fat bit in the middle."

"Wave goodbye to dialup, and say hello to the... well, the broadband motoring!"

So it turns out that they made up the part about it running out of juice on the track. :bag:
