Tesla Releases Pictures of its Model S 4-Door Sports Sedan

by Benjamin Jones on October 24, 2008

Based on all the buzz that Tesla has created, you’d be tempted to think they were the only electric car manufacturer out there. However, they’ve really taken it to a new level today, releasing some pictures of the long talked about 4-door sports car, the Model S.

The Roadster has become the ubiquitous electric sports car, partially because it has built off of the Lotus Elise’s reputation as a superior driving machine. However, this next car will be an all Tesla design, though it has high expectations from Tesla’s own developing reputation (transmission issues aside).

The car should go on sale in 2010 with a starting price tag of $60,000. If that seems a little too rich for your blood (definitely is for me!), compare it to the Roadster at $109,000. However, even if we can’t buy the car, Tesla’s efforts are definitely driving the production and performance of lithium ion batteries for use in electric cars, so we can all be happy.

One more teaser of the rear:
