It’s still in the design phase, but we do know that SSC has at least one 500-HP electric motor designed, and they’re considering sticking two of them in one car to create an insane, 1,000-HP beast that doesn’t emit a thing. Even more interesting is the drive train, which SSC claims uses a power source that allows for extended time between charges.

Tesla has opened its second store in Menlo Park, Calif., replicating the high-touch sales environment of its first store in Los Angeles. Showrooms in New York, Chicago, Miami, and Seattle are planned as well.
The Roaster will have a range of 220 miles per charge and the mileage equivalent of 135 mpg. It can go from standing still to 60 mph in less than 4 seconds.
The company is also planning to make an all-electric sedan priced at about $60,000.
