First Tesla All-Electric Model S Rolls Off Assembly Line

The first Tesla Model S all-electric car has finally rolled off the production line after four years of planning, creating and test, giving US consumers the first American made all electric commercial vehicle.

When the history of the electric car is written sometime in the distant future, it's likely the name Tesla will stand out for more than just the eccentric inventor; it will stand for the first "real" all electric vehicle. Technically, it's not of course, there are many all electric cars available for sale today, but compared to the Tesla Model S, none of them are true attempts to make an all electric vehicle, truly mainstream. As the Associated Press is reporting, via Time Magazine, the first Model S, the new flagship for the progressive California company, has rolled off the production line and has been delivered to an actual customer. Wired, who got to test drive one of the new cars, calls it impressive, and Car and Driver says it finds the car "very promising.

So, what's so great about this new electric car from Tesla? Well, it's the first new car company to survive its first offering in nearly a generation, for starters. That first effort, as Wired says, was the Roadster and while it was quite popular with the Hollywood set, few others were willing to plunk down the hundred grand necessary to take delivery. The Model S is everything that Roadster was, and more, the AP says. It has all the markings and feel of a luxury car, and sits well within the price range of well heeled buyers that are currently driving around in a Lexus, Cadillac, BMW or Mercedes-Benz; with one major difference of course. This new car runs on pure electricity, all the time. And not only that, it has a range of 160 to 230 miles depending on which battery a customer orders. And with a rebate from the government, the car sits firmly in the same price range as other luxury cars in its class, at roughly $50,000.

Something many car buyers overlook, Wired says, is the eerie feeling of driving without sound, the electric engine in the Model S is so quiet, they report, that the only discernible noise while traveling ninety miles an hour, was the wind against the windshield. That a the slow realization that it never changes gears, so there's none of that waiting for it when a driver accelerates; something that has grown in importance to drivers charging along an onramp while trying not to get sideswiped as they merge onto a freeway. There's also no driveshaft, so the floor is completely flat, allowing more foot room.

In short, as the AP notes, the Tesla Model S, is a game changer, even if the small car company itself doesn't survive, because it's shown what can be done, and now and forever after, drivers will expect as much from the big car makers.
