It's a Tesla Roadster.. You can hear the electric motor as he pulls away.
It's a totally electric car. They're fantastic. Lotus were contracted by
Telsa to build the chassis, which is related to a Lotus Elise but is mostly
made out of different components. Tesla now have the electric Model S in
production and soon the Model X.

15 Tesla Model S'es and a Roadster climb Mount Washington
A group of us got together on August 3rd, 2013 to climb Mt. Washington in our Tesla vehicles. At the spur of the moment I decided to take a video but didn't have ...
Having seen the whole video now, a few thoughts: Did you guys blow through
the toll at the bottom? I noticed you had a pending firmware update on the
dash. Was it just new, or are you holding off updating for some reason (ie:
reported bugs)? Did the traction control trip at all on the dirt-covered
parts of the climb? Your final energy usage was 1590 Wh/mile? Did you learn
what you wanted to, or was this purely for fun?
LOL it was an arranged event so they let us through and chauffeured us
around. I didn't do the pending update as I don't do those when I'm away
from home just in case. Traction control was perfect, no issues up or down.
Final (just the ascent) was in the 1,500 range I believe, yes. Both up and
down was 450 or so. It was purely for fun, but awesome quiet ascent and
descent... no noisy engine braking etc ...
Most of the Model S were averaging around 1500 to 1600 Wh/mi on the way up.
The Roadster averaged around 1200 with a driver and passenger. Most of the
cars added 20 miles of range on the 8 mile drive down.
Ben, a Tesla made it to the summit of Mt. Haleakala in Hawaii. It is a
10,000' climb. I wish I could find info on the energy usage, but the driver
only posted a photo with no story.
Oops! Close enough :-) Lowest VIN? I'm S246. I ended up leading the second
pack on the way down (we go separated). No taillights to follow. Yikes.
Couldn't see the road :-(
I have a quick question. Can you use your Android or iPhone to produce a
wifi hotspot for this car or is it only their the 3g network you get the
internet signal?
