Jaguar I-Pace concept But lets face it if it looks like that it is an instant winner 8-)

Looks like Jaguar is going to show Tesla how to design an electric crossover, and if the design goes to production then it is one sexy car and it going to be electric, shots fired Tesla you better take notice as your cars are fugly as hell. :mrgreen:

Electric cars looking ugly was introduced by Toyota with the Prius. :lol:

But the Tesla's are not really ugly. Only the small one is.

This Jaguar has a much more appealing design for sure.
If they leave it like that it will be an instant winner. :party:

That big POS they call Model X isn't exactly pretty. Even the Prius is better lookin' than that.

Don't know about that, in my opinion the Tesla Roadster is the best looking car they have done so far.

There is no other "small" Tesla than the Model 3

It is good that the big car corporations wake up now. But Tesla has paved the way.
In my Country they try to get rid of the tax benefits when buying an electrical car. Are they afraid of the Tesla success?
More likely they see that they will lose the revenues from gasoline. Tax in my Country is ridiculous anyway. Illegal even, according to EU rules :roll:

But thanks to the inconsistent laws and rule making, regarding electrical Cars, Musk has not expanded on the Factory he has built over here, but instead bought another one in Germany.
So the short sighted Government shoots themselves in the foot, when it comes to creating new jobs.

Only real big mistake Musk has made so far, is the end of the free charging for new Tesla buyers. That was one of the cherries on the cake.

And in the very near future, they will have to stand up to the other car manufacturers. Lets see how they will deal with the competition. :party:

How come that be? The Tesla Roadster is a small car with almost the same proportions of a Lotus Elise. :|

But whatever, I already got it you were calling the Model 3 ugly and not the Roadster.

The Tesla Roadster was Tesla's first project and in fact based on the Lotus. But the light weight Lotus went fat boy quickly with double the mass, due to the battery packs. :lol:
And despite that, it still had a poor range. A lot has happened since.

The current line up is what i'm talking about.
