Tesla Roadster 2.5 Sport 2010 Car Review & Test Drive
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The Tesla Roadster needs no introduction-it is simply known as "the electric supercar."
The car's performance (0-60mph) and pricetag ($158,000) are familiar supercar territory, but the fact that it costs around $4 to 'fill up' puts it all alone for the moment. Right now, there's nothing in its segment or any other that can compare to this car

Are those.. Wonder Woman's boots?
The sheets matching the curtains would be AWESOME!
@lilPhil15 Lotus's don't have power steering either. It would take away from the road feel. Plus, being this light, does it really need it?
How come pop ups don't match what Emme's saying? For example the torques & the price.
what about 0-60 and range ?
why not power steering does it use a lot of electricity to do that.
no wind noise?
I wish I could afford the car and I love the boots. They're Kick *ss and in keeping with the theme of the car's paint job. Nice job tying the whole review into a red, white and blue bow.
How far can it drive on a charge? Oops if I missed that.
@zamuriaz yeah but Porsche & BMW are not making all of their cars as hybrids, you can just choose not to buy a hybrid.
how fast can it go ?
what kind of camera do you guys use?
im gonna miss having exhaust notes in the future
plus its not all american because the body shell is from the lotus elise so its part british
What a shame that no one is responding to this video any more. I saw it in 2011 and thought to myself, meh just another toy car. Boy look at the world now! And whoever bought Tesla shares back then following Emme's review would've now been happily retired.
What sux is that Lotus didn't bring the Europa over here, which features an American engine (the LNF from the Cobalt SS and Solstice GXP)
welcome to dc!!!
That interior looks like it's straight out of a 90s Pontiac in many areas. Does not look like a very inviting cabin, but the car is badass none the less.
@order9066 Did i somehow miss Canada becoming the 51st state?
God i love this car...
I didnt hear how many miles you can expect to get from a full charge.
luv ya.. Emme you r one of my favorite auto reviewer.. Plz keep up the good work.. ^^
@fsfsto 125 Miles an hour. with 0 - 60 in 3.9 for the basic to 3.7 for the sport
Wonder Woman boots
Love the new presenter, great attitude...and hair!
I may be Canadian but that paint job is pretty awesome, and by the way Emmie your outfit was pretty awesome!!
Its the best 2 seater ever the best ride of my life and my friend drove his around the world in 3 months in way that NO ICE sport could do without mechanic pit stops.

It's 2017, you have a choice now of NIO EP9 or Rimac Concept Gen2. Both 1000HP+ Hypercars. You can have that mind blowing experience again on crazier level.
Does this come in manual?

Jack Dawset no transmission, no gears, no shifting ... forward and back are only 2 choices
@herbert0308 The very first early-production Teslas from 2008 did have a two-speed transmission but they wren't reliable and drained the battery quickly. Check out the Wikipedia article for more info.
3:41 what the helld you nail on the road a birdsnest?? lol
... Wouldnt a Lotus Elise (which is basically this car...) burn little gas and cost 1/3 of a price
@order9066 Canada is a foreign country...
HELL NAW!!!
128k for a QUALITY American car.
I just heard that Tesla is going to discontinue this car in a couple of months.
u'll have to drive the tesla for at least 10 years to cancel the emmisions made to mine the materials for the battery and to manufacture them. plus charging the batteries might not even come from a green source at all. im not for electric cars as a future for automobiles but its a foot in the right direction, nice review
...I mean like KABAM!! instant, right... That was awesome! Great review Emme...
i love your wonder woman boots C:
It's really a nice concept, but since it's only a RWD, it's not practical for driving in the snow.
@terminator689 thanks bud.
your boots estan padrisimas i love its!!! holla!!!!
It's not all american since it's chassis is based on the Lotus Elise.
@Bravo21 Top Gear didn't test it so much as they wrote an episode where it "breaks down" twice. A month or two back Tesla filed a lawsuit against the BBC for their false portrayal of the car. I'm not saying that this is the best car out there, but I will stand by Tesla in saying that their car was not given a fair chance.
@ 1:50 47 people got the "KABAAM" In the face
That car is cool... for a girl!! and its pretty well fitted... on a fair!! you can never give up on a high rev v8!

Real girls don’t give up
why would i take a laundry basket in sport car ? lol ,great review tho =P
No talk about range or charging. Kinda main points you should talk about in a review of an electric car dont ya think?
Nice "Wonderwoman" boots ! :)
look at the torque section funny
Would be the perfect solution if not for the price (more than 80000€), the charging time (from nothing is 3&1/2 hours) or motor life expected (7 years) I guess that the normal people would buy it if the price were on average 30000€, 45 minutes charging-time and at least 5 years warranty, that aim would make them sell much more cars & therefore earn much more money Any advice for that, the car doesn't have to look like a space ship or have the accelerating and speed of a F1, Just a normal car!
To be honest, if you are running to a laundry mat in a roadster you have more money than brains.
Tesla should develop its own model without third party involvement like Lotus in this case. Clearly half of the money goes to Lotus hence it is so expensive.
If you can afford this car, you dont need to carry laundry around!
Not all American chassis from England.
$158,000?!! Why not spend that on a CTS-V and a ZR-1 Vette, and all the gas they'd ever burn? And save a fortune when you don't need to re-feed the battery compartment.
it's too expensive and it has some problems but it's a glimmer of the devastating power that electric drive easily can be. what people don't get is that an electric car better than that can be done profitably for 20.000$ albeit a bit shorter range but more much efficient and as fast. the few producers just haven't taken full advantage of the potential yet. when the first one wakes up, it will be an explosion
wow
Yeah it take $4 to fill it up with electricity - with electrics its the cost per mile to replace the batteries as they wear out that kills you.
I can't wait for Tesla Model X
@marcussoori New? i think your the one new here!lol
WFT, when you walked around the car showing your boots.
The MSRP is almost $130,000!? Fuck that, I will get an Audi R8!
ohh man that exhaust sound sick it must be corsa or borla LMAO
Electric or not I wouldn't pay $150K for that. But Emme, Those jeans and boots just blew the Hottie meter OFF THE CHARTS. In a Sandra Bullock sort of way. You still seem a little crazy but YOU'RE LOOKING GOOD!!!!
Press 8. DE EIGHT DE EIGHT DE EIGHT :D
Lithium Cobalt
All American? except that it's based on the Lotus Elise
oh yea, you'll hear this beast coming from a mile away.
@whatever04811 ok maybe it's just a simple mistake but 150,000-7000=143000 :p
51!
How does a $150,000 electric vehicle not have power steering? lol
@Silverbulletzx3 Part of the issue with our current state of affairs is that fuel efficiency, and zero emissions is considered "Liberal". I don't get it.Unless you work in the oil industry i dont see how you could look at this car as a bad thing. This thing is awesome, and as soon as the price drops another 50k or so i'm getting one. Fork Saudi Arabian oil!!!
Love the liberal spin. of course lookin at her and hearin ya talk. who wouldnt expect it?
@hallassracing549 ah ok, I Can imagine!!! shoot any of the cars you drive can turn heads!, love your videos! even though i cant afford them you and your laundry basket rating make my day :D ! thanks!
@tripleheshy I'm not leftist at all. I'm more of a middle thinker with a right lean. However i believe in common sense. Please explain how fuel effeciency and or cost savings equal liberal. I currently drive a lifted crew-cab silverado. Sold a 6.0liter LS2 corvette to get it. If i could get the same performance of either of those vehicles for pennies on the dollar in fuel i'd be all over it. Anyone who disagrees simply because the "blue" party agrees needs to take a look at self.
Come to Mama Emme, Tesla
i mean like kabem
more people should drive more hybrid and electric cars so i can drive V8
Emme + Tesla = :D
wonderwoman boots
I like her. She's my friend haha :)
$150 grand with stupid $7 k goverment credit is still a $147 K and thats a Porsche or Ferrari money - MUCH more pleasure.
Do people here really not realize that carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas and that it is what is harming the environment? Yes, electric cars do get their energy from power plants. And yes some of those power plants are coal and nuclear. Coal does in fact put more pollutants in the air than burning the same amount of gas. However, a coal power plant is FAR more efficient than an ICE. Also, not all electricity is from coal, so you also have to take that into account. Do research before you hate.
Wow shes really cool, LOL HEll No, HEll Yea!
@santiagoincorp and I thought I was the only one that really hated her, she thinks she's somebody
did you say 2.5? pfft!
cmon 150k just get a 911 turbo or gt3 rs
Lovin' the Wonder Woman boots. You're so hot, Emme lol ;) "Is this car practical? HEYLL NAW! Would I buy this car? HEYLL YEAH!" She's too cool for school, man lol
Why would you review a car that probably 94.2% of the world can't afford? LOL
Lotus platform. Just saying.
i hate this person, but i want to learn more about this car...
Would I buy it?? Hell-to-the-no!! I'll wait for the sedan. ;^)
I would buy audi R8 etron....
This car makes me want to throw up. I like big badass V8s and V12s, gas and stick shifts and loud exhausts. What is so wrong about that? And then the price is batsh!t crazy. BTW, love the Wonder Woman boots.
that woman is hilarious
Emme is seriously hot
Over $100,000 for this shit?! just buy lotus exige for $50,000 less. aint as heavy neither.
@roadflytv Coooooooool. Me like free shirts.
that start up sound was so lame.. because its a pretentious electric car it should dispense a frapachino or something when you turn it over.
Wonder Woman, can u lasso me?
