    Next Tesla Roadster Not To Be Seen Until 2015

    February 14, 2012

    Tesla’s first car, the Roadster had to bow out last year due to Lotus choosing to end production of its own Elise and Exige sports cars, which the Roadster was based on. Since then, Tesla has promised a sequel to the Roadster, but it might be a long wait.

    Inside Line spoke with Tesla Chairman and CEO Elon Musk about the next Roadster. Musk said he's decided to hold up on a replacement roadster for now. The reason isn’t technical, but business. Musk said the company is going to put their focus on launching the "Gen 3" electric car, a smaller, less-expensive EV for the mass market. Musk says he hopes to have the “Gen 3” out sometime in 2015.

    • I’m sure most is garbage but I’m sure Michelin, Continental, and Maxxis all make a tire in that size.  I bought Continentals for my mountain bike a couple years ago and freakin love them. Some are made in China and some are made in Germany.

    • Part of me is just bone weary of human stupidity. Not you, others. China can make crap or excellent stuff, everything is built to a price point. But having to find 26 x 1 1/2 tires for an older bike my wife rides. Most of what is available is as you say cheap Chinese crap. sometimes I just want to buy something and have it work Patrick Henry may have just only begun fighting, Trump has only just begun destroying the American auto industry. Money talks, BS walks. Ottawa will indeed be a state capitol in the US at the rate we are going. Has become? Has always been.
    • Destruction of the U.S. by Idiot47 is now truly affecting the auto industry as Kia has released their latest Press Release and now Canada but not the U.S. will get the Kia EV5 SUV and production will be in Korea as due to the Morons in Georgia, Kia / Hyundai / Genesis are quietly stopping production of all new EV models.

    • Very interesting the U.S. Governments investment in Canadian mineral companies. Trump's Takeover Of Canadian Rare Earths Miners Raises Major Concerns Canadian companies seem happy to have the U.S. government buy up their stock; seems the auto industry will have access to North American rare earth minerals replacing China 100%. I can so see this happening as pissing off Canadians could easily make the government say NO to U.S. ownership of these companies. The Trump administration is investing in Canadian critical mineral companies. But Ottawa can stop it | CBC News
