This video is probably as close as we normal humans will ever get to a ride in the first production Tesla along with Elon Musk. He is as fascinating as his car. He was the co-founder of PayPal and the founder of Space Exploration Technologies (SpaceX), of which he is currently the CEO and CTO. SpaceX develops and manufactures space launch vehicles.
Musk owns a Tesla Roadster, serial number 0001, from Tesla Motors, a company in which he is the principal investor and Chairman of the Board. The Roadster is a battery electric sports car with a 220 mile range. It is fast—zero to sixty in less than four seconds fast. If nothing else, it serves as proof that a car can be ecologically clean, as well as cool.
