March 8, 2011 By Cars UK

Tesla has revealed that the Tesla Model S will start at $49,500 after subsidy, rising to $69,500 for the 300 mile battery model. Think similar numbers in GBP or Euros. We’ve been less than charitable about Tesla’s stated aim to bring the Model S in as a sub $50k car. It seemed – with the […]

January 19, 2011 By Cars UK

Tesla Model S Alpha

Tesla has revealed the Tesla Model S is at the Alpha stage of development – about 80% production-ready – with launch in 2012.

June 3, 2009 By Cars UK

It may not sound many, certainly in terms of volume car manufacturers, but it is quite a milestone for Tesla to have just delivered its 500th Tesla Roadster to a customer in New York. It must be making Elon Musk smile. In truth, much as we’ve criticised the Tesla and its drawbacks, it is a […]
