Overview of Tesla Motors Model S
Model S
Tesla motors was founded in 2003 by Elon musk and Martin Eberhard, they have been building a relationship with customers ever since. their first production car was the Tesla Roadster and now they've made the Model S. Elon Musk took an active role within the Company and invested $7.5 million dollars with his personal funds to start up the company. in January 2010 they received a $465 million loan from the Energy Department and they received a third of that from private investors. the company was named after Nikon Tesla an American electrical engineer physicist and inventor. Tesla produces an effective and efficient alternative to gas driven vehicles. they manufacture and sell Sporty looking, environmentally safe, fully electric powered cars with zero emissions by using automobile power train technology. The charging of the vehicle is simple you can charge the car anywhere there is an outlet. if you leave the car in the garage over night plugged in it will be ready for you in the morning. A fully charged Tesla can go up to 300 miles. Depending on how far you will travel a day the charging time varies. Lets say you drive 30 miles everyday it will take 5 hours to charge your vehicle for those miles on a standard wall outlet. .The Company insists that you install a super powered wall connector before the vehicle is delivered through their partners Solar City. it will only take 30 minutes with a super powered wall connector to charge the Tesla for 30 miles. on average it will only cost about $10 to fully charge a Tesla that will take you 300 miles. Model S has something called battery swap, exchanging your battery for a fully charged battery in less than half the time it takes to refill a gas tank. This offers Model S drivers another, even faster option when recharging. They have there own free charging stations that are located near amenities like roadside diners, cafes, and shopping centers. Road trippers can stop for a quick meal and have their Model S charged when they’re done. Compared to a vehicle like the BMW 535i, Model S will save its owners approximately $8,000 over five years in fuel costs alone.
