Taken from the site:
QuotePlug your Tesla Roadster into the at-home unit, and you?ll be fully charged in three hours. Packed away in the trunk is an optional mobile-charging kit that proves very useful while away from home.

If I had a garage or driveway and it was around 15k then Id buy it too.

I think theyd have to develop a system where you have a really good solar panel, that is an optional extra thats on the body some where and charges the battery while going along the road.

Found out a few things I didnt know. A Lotus designer had a major hand in designing it, and heres the cookie, apparently its going to be built at the Lotus factory :shock: They also poached several Lotus engineers and execs - Lotus made them sign a no-poaching deal otherwise theyd refuse to manufacturer the car! :lol: Its a shame itll only be sold in the US :( Imagine these with Lotus badges on them.... For Ã,£50,000 I reckon theyd sell bucket loads of em!

TBH, if I had Ã,£50k and this car was available, Id have a very tough time choosing between this and an Audi RS4.
