Tesla Model S car is very sporty

There is a very positive review of the all electric Tesla Model S electric car by Dan Neil of the Wall Street Journal.  They seem to have solved the range problem for car with three models of ranges of 160, 230 and 300 miles.  The acceleration is quick at 0 - 60 mph in 4.4 seconds.

Update Aug 20, 2013 - According to ABC News Tesla scores better than perfect on crash test.

A very nice sports car for slightly under $100,000.  You can go green without compromise.  It is also Motor Trends 2013 car of the year.  The dealerships plan to use Apple like marketing for the car.  The Motley Fool is bullish on the stock price.
