A cool thing I will add is this:
I never thought I'd ever see one of these. It's a Tesla electric car and apparently there are 30 of them in Alberta. There were four of them on Stephen Avenue today, along with a Porsche, a couple Nissans, and a truck; all electric displayed by the Electric Vehicle Association of Alberta.
The Tesla motor is about the size of a big watermelon and sits behind the rear wheels. The battery was described as a "big skateboard" and is the base of the body. The body is made of aluminum.
Depending on the power of the engine, a Tesla can cost up to $100,000. At one time that is how much a new digital DSLR camera cost. I can wait for Tesla.
