When they come out with the $35,000 model, and they begin exporting them they will be hugely successful.
Will gas cars go away? Not for a hell of a long time. By then we will be living in cities with extensive public transit.

Weird deal, there are tons and tons of new apartments and condos going up EVERYWHERE around here, and surprizingly, many of them have no parking---but they do have rooms to store your bike!!! Cars? Why the hell do ya need a car?
Solar panel technology will improve (there is already a new one that is like 20,000 times more sensitive being tested) ---- Germany will not let you builld a new home unless it is solar... So, this could take some of the strain off of the grid someday. Not toally solar dependent, but a big help.
Yeah but you still need vast amounts of OIL to build electric cars, mass transit vehicles and even bicycles
