Five of us toured the Tesla factory in Fremont, CA, and test drove the P85. In the factory, there were lots of robots and other high-tech machinery to admire. The P85 is a HUGE improvement over the original S Model.
The Tesla employees were good-natured about us driving up in our Karmas and they stood around our cars, admiring them and taking pictures.
Tesla also uses the factory as a sales outlet. A customer walked by our Karmas and did a double take. He turned and said, "Am I at the right factory?"
I asked the tour guide about Elon's next major announcement, due out on Thursday. His said that it'll likely involve a battery-swapping program.
I'm a diehard Fisker fan and among the many who don't feel that a BEV will fit into my lifestyle, battery-swapping or not. Having said that, Elon has done a great job convincing a lot of people otherwise.
