This is great news. Hopefully once they iron out the powertrain and battery engineering (making it more cost effective), they can start manufacturing small inexpensive cars that at least middle america can afford. I really think this is the future for tesla. They could have an entire line of cars, one for every class of citizen.
Tesla Pico - 2 seater smart-car-esque communter car. With 100 mi range and 45 minute recharge time. Price ~$15,000
Tesla Executive - Economy 5 seater sedan, 200 mi range with 1.5 hr recharge time. Basically a cheaper Tesla Model S, without the fancy entertainment system, and a more toned down interior/exterior. Would be comparable to a BMW 3 series in size, a good bit smaller than the Model S. Also would be less powerful and have less pricey wheels, speakers etc. Price ~$35,000
Then of course we have the Model S and Roadster 1/2. These are just my ideas on where they should go from here.
