What might have seemed inconceivable just a few years ago Tesla has done, and that is make the electric car hot. The Tesla Model S sets the standard for premium electric performance with its advanced technologies:
- Engine – The Tesla Model S powertrain delivers exhilarating performance, pushing the car from 0 to 60 in 5.4 seconds without a drop of gasoline!
- Design – This car features a 50/50 weight distribution, a low center of gravity, and responsiveness and agility that some liken to some of the best sports cars. No wonder Consumer Reports said that “The Tesla Model S is our top-scoring car.”
- Energy – The Tesla Model S is offered with three lithium-ion battery options: 60 kWh with an estimated range of 230 miles, 85 kWh with an estimated range of 300 miles, and 85kWh Performance with an estimated range of 300 miles but with a faster range of acceleration, more horsepower, and higher top speed.
- Charging – You can charge a Tesla Model S with a 240-volt or 120-volt outlets at a rate of 29 miles per hour. This means you can achieve a 50% charge in only thirty minutes.
The best feature of the Tesla Model S may well be its all-glass panoramic roof, allowing for a convertible-like driving experience, which we favor.
Lainie Liberti is a recovering branding expert, who’s career once focused on creating campaigns for green – eco business, non-profits and conscious business. Dazzling clients with her high-energy designs for over 18 years, Lainie lent her artistic talents to businesses that matter. But that was then.
In 2008, after the economy took a turn, Lainie decided to be the change (instead of a victim) and began the process of “lifestyle redesign,” a joint decision between both her and her 11-year-old son, Miro. They sold or gave away all of of their possessions in 2009 and began a life of travel, service, and exploration. Lainie and her son Miro began their open-ended adventure backpacking through Central and South America. They are slow traveling around the globe allowing inspiration to be their compass. The pair is most interested in exploring different cultures, contributing by serving, and connecting with humanity as ‘global citizens.’
Today Lainie considers herself a digital nomad who is living a location independent life. She and her son write and podcast their experiences from the road at Raising Miro on the Road of Life.
