Wright Speed: Tesla Roadster v Porche - early prototype
Brief Description
A battery powered car that blows away a Ferrari 360 Spider and a
Porsche Carrera GT in drag races, and whose 0-to-60 acceleration time
ranks it among the fastest production autos in the world. In fact,
it's second only to the French-made Bugatti Veyron, a
1,000-horsepower, 16-cylinder beast that hits 60 mph half a second
faster and goes for $1.25 million.
The key difference? The Bugatti gets eight miles per gallon. Wright's
car? It runs off an electric battery.
