 As the proud owner of a Tesla 100% electric Roadster, I was delighted to hear that the Tesla worldwide community of owners has driven a collective 4 million Electric Miles! That means that Tesla owners have driven approximately 160 times around the earth without a single puff of tailpipe smoke. Simultaneously, we have saved 200,000 gallons of gas, almost 11,000 barrels of oil, and have prevented over 2,000,000 pounds of CO2 emissions -- which is the equivalent of taking almost 60,000 cars off the road for one day. Happy Earth Day! Photo Above: A vermont Tesla owner charges from solar. According to the owner, the panel makes enough juice to go 10,000 miles a year. He uses his Tesla for daily commuting to work, and the day this photo was taken he happened to watch his odometer roll past 7777 miles. Video below: legendary racecar and hydroplane driver, Chip Hanauer, puts a Tesla through its paces at today's Future of Flight Earth Day celebration in Seattle. Impressive footage.
