I wonder if a person would be able to get a rolling chassis for one?
I would love to put a slant-6 in one or perhaps a Cummins BT4 in there!

THINK Global, a electric car company that was supposed to create a lot of jobs here in Elkhart, just filed for bankruptcy, again. They never even made it off the ground over here.

This has been part of their strategic plan for some time now.
It's not the demise of Tesla, only the end of there production of the roadster.

Now it will be the Model S that they are making.

Tesla has their hands in many other car manufacturers pockets also.
Lots to come from this little company, I say.

Nate, Teslas are a Lotus Elise bought from Lotus without a powertrain (rolling chassis), then converted by Tesla.

I thought the thread was going to be about the most ingenious electrical engineer/inventor ever. Compared to Tesla, Edison was a moron.

True up to a point.
European models are built at Lotus (I know one of the guys that hauls them).
