This appears to be a great implementation of an idea that's been kicking around a while. I love the detail of engineering that's gone into this and I really hope the numbers stack up to make it viable.
It's the first Tesla product where I've thought to myself "wow, I really want that" and I hope that I'll have a roof like this at some point. However I remain skeptical that the efficiency when taking into account to the manufacturing inputs and compared to a standard roof solar install will make sense.
I do think it's incredibly important to make technologies superficially acceptable to gain mass adoption. That's where I believe this stands above the alternatives, let's hope it pans out.
Disclaimer: I'm super excited about SpaceX (well, space in general), I'm not all that bothered about the Tesla car range, though I hope they release something I like at some point.
