That would make Tesla the first U.S. auto start-up in many decades to launch volume production, though it would still be a tiny fraction of the approximately 14 million autos expected to be sold annually nationally for the next several years. A thriving start up auto industry would be a great thing for this country. If Tesla can do it, so can others. Tesla hasn't made it yet......but it looks like it has a chance. I would be happy if it alone pulls it off. With electric cars, they can sort of be considered "consumer electronics". Imagine an Apple built car??? You mean an iCar? <g>
