Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

We had a similar situation when Teslas were new here in Europe and a Model X crashed head on into the median on the autobahn at full speed (130km/h or 80mph).
The guy died because he didn't wear any seatbelt and was ejected from the car. The car looked horrendous but he would have survived if he wore a seatbelt.
Doesn't stop the media from printing "Tesla kills driver" for 2 weeks straight.
