Well obviously I didn’t realize that it was ELECTRIC fuel economy. In that case I’m not going to be impressed with less than a 500 mile range on a full charge, and less than 2 minutes to charge the battery.

Oh come on - 5 minute full-charge is fair!

The EPA says the Tesla Roadster has a range of 244 miles - I think Tesla itself says 245. But under aggressive driving the actual range from a full charge to completely dead can be dramatically lower.

As to how long it can take to charge, it probably depends on the source of the charge. I think the quick answer is overnight.
