Oh, that's really simple. Tesla costs $110K, Nissan Leaf costs about $30K. So figure the Tesla chassis costs say $20K more to build than the Leaf's does, and you've got an extra $60K worth of batteries in the Tesla.

The tesla roadster goes something like 300 miles, but its kind of a special case cause it practicality for everyday use isn't all that great.

It would've handled most of my everyday use just fine, before I got stuck with a second dog. (One of those "can you just keep him for a week or two, otherwise he'll have to (sob) go to the pound" deals. That was back in April.)
