Let's go back to 2010. I was still straightening my hair. The iPad had just come out and a little
0:04
known company called Tesla had just gotten halfway through the production of the first car
0:10
the Tesla Roadster, which the original owner has loaned to me today to let you guys know all about
0:15
it. The Tesla Roadster was one of the most monumental electric cars ever made. And with
0:19
a production run of 2,450 and only 1,500 of them make into the U.S., this is a rare sight to see
0:27
on the road. And most Tesla owners probably don't even know it exists. And this car was years ahead
0:32
of the competition with more acceleration, power, and features than anything else. And this was the
0:37
first production EV to feature lithium-ion batteries, which means it could get 244 miles
0:43
of range, two to three times that what the competitors could do. Unless you got the R80
0:48
package, which became available later and gave you over 300 miles of range and up to a 3.7 0-60
0:54
time. So follow me for more videos about this Tesla and more automotive content
