Jay Leno (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/jay leno) has a pretty big soft spot for alternative-fuel vehicles. From his steam-powered relics to his beloved Chevrolet Volt (http://www.autoblog.com/chevrolet/volt), the comedian's automotive interests are nothing if not varied. In the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage, Tesla (http://www.autoblog.com/tesla) Chief Designer Franz von Holzhausen stops by the Big Dog Garage to show off his company's new Model S (http://www.autoblog.com/tesla/model s). Jay gets a closer look at the five-door EV's interesting touchscreen controls, expansive moonroof and yes, even the third-row jump seats, before taking to the road. The clip explains why Tesla eschewed the chunky standardized EV charger for a more svelte unit and how the company managed to serve up impressive aerodynamics without sacrificing styling.
Leno takes the time to whir the Model S around the greater Los Angeles (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/los angeles) area before hopping on the freeway for a quick spin. This particular model features the largest battery pack available, which gives the Model S a total range of around 300 miles. Check out the clip below (http://www.motorgen.com/2012/10/29/jay-leno-burns-rubber-in-tesla-model-s/#continued) for a closer look.Continue reading Jay Leno burns rubber in Tesla Model S (http://www.autoblog.com/2012/10/29/jay-leno-burns-rubber-in-tesla-model-s/)
