Increasing MPGPM²

28 Mar 2010

Walking around Kensington yesterday I observed to a friend that it had rather a high MPG per area – lots of nice cars with low MPG figures – Porsches, Aston Martins, and so on. But it seems at least one person was bucking the trend:

The first Tesla I’ve seen in the UK. Looked quite nice on the inside, and on the outside very similar to a Lotus Elise, except where one would have expected to see an engine there were just huge cooling fans that look like the ones from the back of a PC. But other than that and the logo you’d have been hard pushed to tell the difference.

The major disappointment was that the owner was nowhere to be seen, so we could all queue for a run around the block in it :)

Update: Thomas kindly alerted me to my mistake of saying reducing when I meant increasing originally – doh! Thanks Thomas!
