Agree - Tesla taps the passion of the die hard enthusiasts. The range and performance of the Model S is comparatively exceptional to that of the Volt and Leaf. Model S is sexy and exciting and I WANT to drive it, I don't simply concede to

Sorry for the delay, Vaskel! Had a bit of traveling to do these past few days. I went from Chicago to Atlanta for my Father's wedding - what a to-do, great fun. (TMI? :) ) In our eyes 10mpg is a huge savings. Couple that with efficiency

I think this could have enough uniqueness to stand on its own. You're right that the general shape of coupes or sedans is the same. But the long hood of the Fisker (and this RF coupe) is significant, and could be a brand indicator. The e

Can't believe there are so many car guys here! This is awesome. The first production-ready prototype will be on the ground in late summer, and will be at SEMA in November. Production (meaning individual builds) will begin in the Fall of

Prepare for a long response (my apologies for monopolizing this space) All good points. Let me address each point individually: Engine: Agree that offroaders like power; for the 3,000 – 3,200 lb offroader we are building, the BMW 335d offe

It's not for everyone, that is for certain! Where are you from, vaksel? Since you seem to have solid opinions on the type of vehicle you would like to drive (you mentioned type of vehicle, price, and powertrain) we would love for you to j

Thanks for spreading the word, Ivan. The $10k is for the initial design and some design development based on community desires; this number does not include engineering and development. But all in all, the outcome is vastly lower cost to
