Tesla is offering an electric car that can travel up to 315 miles on a single charge, and go from 0 to 60 mph in 2.5 seconds, according to an article in The Wall Street Journal.  Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk has said it will be the “fastest care in the world.”  The car is the Model S sedan, and Tesla will also offer a heavier SUV using the same technology that won’t be able to go as far.  The SUV can reach 60 mph in 2.9 seconds. The longer range is expected to reduce fears about the range limit, which is related to the scarcity of charging ports and the time it takes to fully charge the batteries. “The P100D sedan will cost $134,500 and the SUV will cost $135,500.”  “Tesla’s lowest priced electric car starts at about $66,000.  Tesla intends to build a car within the price range for everyone, and is looking to sell a cheaper model in 2017.
