Tesla Car Specs
Tesla Model S Versus Chevy Volt?
I don't know about you, but Tesla's 5 seater has it all over the Volt.
Here's why:
1) It is completely electric with a 300 mile range.
2) The fueling cost breaks down to one cent per mile compared to seven cents per mile for the Volt.
3) Zero emissions because it burns no gasoline.
4) Fewer moving parts, less maintenance because it doesn't have a gasoline engine.
5) Though no performance specs are available, I find it hard to believe that the Volt will best the Tesla's 5.9 sec 0-60 mark.
6) The 5 seat Model S is roomier with more storage space.
To be fair, GM has Tesla beat in the area of having a proven track record of building cars and backing warranties. Also, even though I think the Tesla is superior, if you compare the Volt to the current Hybrids on the market, it is vastly superior and appears to be quite impressive for a big automaker who has been reluctant to pursue electric technology.
What do you think? Volt or Tesla?
Some of the guys seem to be confusing the Tesla Roadster with the Tesla S.
The Roadster is the $110,000 two-seat sports car.
The Model S is a 5-seat sedan that costs $49,900.
That's about $9000 more than the Volt, but you also get more car-- Volt seats only 4 (two bucket seats in the back due to the battery pack down the middle), Model S seats 5 (car-width seat in the back), and less maintenance because it has no internal combustion engine, and 0-60 in 5.9 seconds is pretty darn good for a family sedan.
If I got $50,000 to spend on an Electric Car, I'd take the Model-S over the Volt every time.
