Tesla's 2008 Roadster's are all reserved

Tesla's Roadster is the first zero emission vehicle in production
Ze'ev Drori, President and CEO of Tesla Motors, recently announced the start of regular production of the companies Roadster.

Drori explained in a blog post, "Since my previous communication we have obtained all the required regulatory approvals for the sale of the Roadster in the US and delivered the first production Tesla Roadster. We also set at that time a date of March 17th 2008 for the start of regular production of the Roadster. I am pleased to report to you that we have met this commitment and have begun regular production."

What's fascinating is as Tesla manufacturing ramps up, they are taking orders for the 2009 model year. All of the 2008 Roadsters have been reserved. Great news for Tesla, even better news for the electric car industry as a whole. No other company has come this far, actually delivering vehicles to customers. Yes, Tesla has had some hiccups, but they've succeeded in jumping through the hoops and are now prepared to continue that success into the next model year.
