Who will buy an electric car when they are available?

[Stagg]

Ok so half the people on this thread know that I'm really into the whole sustainable living idea, and I for one know that as soon as I can I'm financing an electric car.

recently the Tesla model S was released in America, and I found it to be practical, attractive, actually ahs a decent range, and isn't bad on performance. Have a look:









Apparently the price is going to be anywhere from US $50k to about US $75K depending on how many batteries and which package etc.

I would sure as anything buy one for $50k if they are available in Australia any time soon. Would any one else be sold on the idea of electric cars if they were all practical?
