If you love neck-snapping torque right off the line, we’ve got your car, and it doesn’t run on premium gas. In fact, it doesn’t run on gas at all, it’s the Tesla Roadster electric car. Besides getting an equivalent of 135 mpg (about a penny per mile), the Tesla Roadster’s 245-hp engine produces 100% torque, 100% of the time for 0-60 mph speed in about 4 seconds. Unlike a gas-powered engine, this roadster’s peak torque begins at zero rpm and stays there beyond 13,000 rpm and up to 130 mph. The cutting-edge battery gets up to 250 miles on a single 3.5-hour charge, and a mobile charging system enables a quick boost on the road. Battery life is expected to exceed 100,000 miles. This classic two-seat roadster comes in 12 colors with a double-insulated soft top and optional hard carbon fiber top. The Tesla Roadster is equipped with all the goodies you’d expect from a “Best Of,” including Bluetooth wireless technology, IPOD/MP3 interface, sport seats with inflatable lumbar support and GPS.
