At the earth day event at Price Park a couple of weeks ago, one of the displays was of electric cars. In the above photo, the silver car is a first generation Tesla car. The blue car beside it is a 2018 Tesla car. Greensboro does not yet have a Tesla dealer. We would have to go to Raleigh or Matthews to purchase one. However, for educational purposes and to generate interest, they brought these cars to show at the earth day event.
Founded in 2003, Tesla specializes in electric cars and the company is committed to helping the world transition to smarter, more sustainable energy sources. The Tesla car is one such solution. However, their highway-capable, electric car, the Roadster (the blue car above, starts at about $100,000. Even if it is not yet in our budgets, it is important to know about them. Soon, we'll be seeing them on the streets of Greensboro, honking at us as we pull in to gas stations.
It is quite a car!

I like the silver one. And I think you can get a Tesla for under $100K now. Still. It's interesting that the event was a Price Park 'cause these cars are very pricey! :)
