I must say I wonder about the Tesla maths. Elon Musk is obviously a "visionary" e.g. wanting to do Noha's ark to Mars and other projects, and a super car on electric is an interesting project maybe for investors. But, my understanding is 2020 before profitability, huge capital expenditure, significant market exclusion based on price, plus product manufacturing, distribution and storage footprint issues from centralised processing still there.
Personality, and in a shorter timeframe, I'm interested where the compressed air vehicle manufacture is heading. Cheap, excellent performance when matched to application, distributed manufacture, revolutionary design from the bottom up.
Has anyone else been looking at it yet. Oh, and TATA, Veolia, KLM, and a major oil company apparently are into the products.
