Dunno about it's charging rate. According to
http://www.popularmechanics.com/auto...s/4215681.html it uses a 56kwh li-ion battery. (Their numbers are a little stale there. They're quoting fuel prices of $2.55/gallon
Their numbers round out to $0.022 per mile, which doubles the numbers above. I'd still like to know where Tesla got their $0.01 figure from - what "incentives" are they talking about?
