Although it's been in production for over ten years, the Tesla Model S is still going strong as one of the only true American luxury cars. While they may not be to everyone's taste, people can't deny that the Model S is one of the most successful electric cars and in the Bay Area, is as ubiquitous as a Honda Accord.

A ~5,300lb (2,400 kg) full-sized all-electric crossover SUV with falcon-wing styled rear doors. The same doors that halted delivery of the vehicle by 4-6 months and forced engineers to develope new ultra-sonic sensors that could see through aluminum. The P90D version goes 0-60 mph (0-100 kph) in 3.2 supercar crushing seconds and takes it to the 1/4 mile (400 meters) in 11.6 seconds, faster than any production SUV built in history. This is done using its 762 combined horsepower dual-electric motors.

The time a Tesla owner spends each day educating others on their car's features or on EV's in general. Tesla time can be spent with friends/family but is most often taken by random curious people who spot the car on the street.

An actor in English language television portraying a historical figure from Europe who doesn’t even bother to try an accent.
As in: Several episodes of The Murdoch Mysteries (Canadian tv series) tv series where the actor playing Nikola Tesla doesn’t have even a hint of an Eastern European accent. A ladle of irony that the character is played by an actor named Dmitry Chepovetsky!
