Amy Counter and Jeffrey Waterhouse Period 3 Situation 2 An alternative fueled car that is perfect for a stylish company car. The Tesla Roadster
Quick Facts • For your alternative fuel car I’d definitely recommend the completely electric Tesla Roadster. This car is truly green because it doesn’t emit any carbon dioxide, with an easy charge in as little as 3.5 hours. The price is $100,000, and you make a great living as a CEO. Think of the environment; this cost is minimal compared to the detriments of carbon dioxide and other harmful gases in our atmosphere. • Top speed reached on the Tesla Roadster is 125 mph. • Torque- 380 Nm at 0 - 5,500 rpm • Motor- 248 hp (185kW) 3-phase electric with 14,000 rev limit and regenerative braking
The Interior • Premium seats with executive interior leather • A wide range of 13 exterior color choices (including racing green and electric blue) that can be metallic, with 10 complimenting interior colors.
Safety • ABS brake system • Traction control and tire pressure monitors • Integrated head restraints and side impact door beams • Vehicle threat deterrent and immobilizer system • Security PIN number to start, just like a secret agent!

Toyota Prius For Mr. Z’s car with great gas mileage I’d definitely recommend the Toyota Prius. How can you go wrong with 48 MPG City, and 45 MPG Highway? Cost to Drive 25 Miles $1.11 Fuel to Drive 25 Miles 0.54 gal Cost of a Fill-up $21.96 Miles on a Tank 493 miles Tank Size 11.9 gal
Safety • Driver's and passenger's side front and front side airbags, as well as full-length head curtain airbags and a driver's knee airbag. • Stability and traction control • The front seats feature anti-whiplash active headrests
Interior “The passenger cabin of the 2010 Toyota Prius offers more space in every dimension than previous editions of the car. Its seats, reviewers say, are significantly more comfortable for 2010 as well. The excellent fit and finish Toyota is known for is present in this car, as well.” -US News Ranking and Reviews
" Automotive journalists often struggle to describe how one interior feels more upscale than another, or how one type of plastic can feel cheap and another won't - these things just are. With the Prius, Toyota made a number of good choices on both materials and eye-pleasing color combinations.“ -Cars.com
