According to Tesla Motors, is expected to produce annually up to 20 thousand such vehicles, though not on the mass price: the love of clean technologies will cost big bucks, from 50 thousand dollars.

For this price is expected to sell a basic version that is capable, without charge up to 260 km, but the more "advanced" options and can handle the 370 and even 480 miles, that is nothing less than a conventional car rides on a single tank.
