Here’s more electric sedan news! While Detroit Electric is still preparing for its first E-Persona to roll off Proton production lines in Q1 or Q2 2010 (though prototypes already exist and we’ve tried them out), Tesla let its first buyer Steve Jurvetson have a ride in a pre-production Tesla Model S that actually looks pretty good and ready to go, from the outside at least. Check out the video after the jump recorded by Mr Jurvetson – that huge touch screen in the interior is definitely very impressive looking to anyone who gets into the car. Jurvetson also already owns a Tesla Roadster. Lucky guy!
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
i'm 1st! Wow….guess what the price, am i able to buy it?
hahaha! i’ll still prefer exotics like enzo than this. electric car will be the last resort when i got no more money 2 pump petrol. lolz!
looks really futuristic.. really like those concept cars at motorshows that never move.
First !!
this is the car of the future and the future of the car!
only thing we'll miss is the sound from the exhaust / engine. but i suppose if you grow up with an electric car, you'll never know what u've missed with a petrol engine.
maybe for the next 20-30 years, internal combustion engine will be a history.. our grandchild will amaze when they sow our 1990 proton saga..huhu

the funny thing is, electric cars have been around since the the early 1900's. which is where the original detroit electric started their business in 1908 or something. but today, we view it as the future..
also of interest, if you look back at pauls archives.. theres a story on how lotus plans to put "sounds" to electric cars, coz the europeans are worried they will become pedestrian hazards in future.
USD49,990 the basic model. From taiwan info i doubt for this car said for 7 seater. Means 5 adult + 2 children seat. any idea?
Bah, hardly anything about the performance of the car from the video.
I expected something far more geeky for someone who finishes his BSEE in 2.5 yrs. At the very least, turn the damn music off and let us hear how silent it is.
instant torque..like the Detroit said…must be fun to drive..

grow up man. seriously.
is it wise when driving EV car but the panel all need electricity to operate… herm..

i think in the future children would only known how many KHz can generate how many Bhp/torque as equal to a fast car lol….not c.c anymore.
damn this is so cool , i wish i could drive 1 now
or Mac version ……..hehehe. can see the future is so electric now
Ooh…Ooh!! I like the center control panel, like a monitor, very futuristic! I love it!
damn that screen is HUGE! and touchscreen! NICE!
dont know if you guys heard the car when it was driving out, you can kinda hear the car gaining speed or something, like before a rocket is about to launch.
WHORRRRRRRRRR-YEEEEEEEEEEEEE~~~~~~~
something like that.
hope a little bump wont crack the screen
The minority-report-screen-thing is cool but am I able to go for another 20 km if I remove the touch screen?
Do we have anyone study on the topic about high capacity batteries disaster? Someone gotta know how to handle two or more EV crumpled into one large pile of battery waste.
