I was surprised in the beginning when he reached in and popped the boot with a button. Not something you normally see in a convertible. (thought they never did that because of theft) Eh but why would anyone driving a $110K toy have anything valuable in the boot?
Also looks like the lamest part of the Elise carried over too- the key. Would of expected something really cool on the Tesla. I wonder if the Lotus trim shop would do custom seats for it? (and get rid of the pinched up leather around the headrests)

Very neat car. It would be awesome to see the technology produced on a mass scale at an affordable level to the common person. It's great for the celebrities that will own them to show that they are "green" but I wonder if there is one person out there with one in their fleet of cars that doesn't have a Range Rover that they drive around stinking up the earth more than they take out their toy car?

I disagree. I think the range is good an quite practical. Sure you'd need something with an engine for road trips, but that range would serve 95+% of people very well for 99% of the time. It takes the average driver a week or more to put that many miles on. I could easily use it, and would just need another car once every couple months for the road trips I take. But I don't think anyone that had $75K to put down on a Tesla and then the remainder when they eventually get their car (production is at what 10% max of what was originally expected?) that they don't have a few luxobarges and SUV's at the house to road trip around in.
