A few interesting facts about Tesla Motors that you should know

Like any other large company with a global reputation, Tesla Motors has fun facts you might not have known about:

1. Elon Musk is not the creator of Tesla Motors. The idea belongs to Martin Eberhard, a very talented engineer who dreamed of creating an economical car, but did not have the necessary capital to realise the startup. And then Martin offered to invest in the project to Elon, who was just in search of where to invest the money from the sale of PayPal.
2. Tesla Motors' first electric car is a plagiarism. In order not to bother with the concept and design for a long time, they took the carburetted Lotus Elise as a basis and made an electric car out of it, which was named Tesla Roadster. The car turned out to be really good: acceleration to a hundred in 4 seconds, top speed - 210 km/hour, range of 400 km.
3. Tesla Motors is not hiding its developments. This is due to the fact that the concern is interested in the development of electric cars and is not against healthy competition. Interestingly, the functions of the electric car can be expanded at any time by simply updating the system, just like on the iPhone.
