Tesla Motor's Electric Cars

Tesla Motors is an electric car manufacturing company. Headed by Elon Musk, this company wants to create cars which runs on pure form of energy and don't pollute the environment. Tesla Motors started in 2003, by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning, who wished to create a company to make electric cars. They were funded and encouraged by Elon Musk, who later became the chairman of the company. The company has been producing plenty of electric cars and revolutionizing the world of cars. It has many small batteries instead of one large one hence minimizing power loss and also having emergency power. But this car company also have controversies such as blasts and uneconomical buying of SolarCity.

Considering the pros and cons of the company profile and its cars, I give it 4 on five.
