For those not aware, Tesla will also be offering an electric sedan. Internally the vehicle is known as the "Model S." Unlike the current all-electric sports car, this sedan will be a plug-in hybrid-electric vehicle. Tesla is hoping to get this into production in 2010, with prices in the $60K range.

Nothing new here, but there are serious doubts whether Tesla will maintain a timetable with the Model S.

So Tesla will sell 10, sorry, hundreds of prototype, sorry, production models to wealthy people for $80K, sorry, $60K in 2012, sorry, 2010.
Color me unexcited. But it makes for a good press release. Too bad I can't drive a press release.

The toyota nut states that, electric vehicles are way more efficient than hydrogen fuelled fuel-cell vehicles. So this step may not only help lessen fuel consumption but also give more job opportunities to Californians.
