00:00:05

Roadster a Lotus Elise with a bunch of

00:00:08

double a batteries in it

00:00:10

don't be ridiculous they're not Double

00:00:12

A's they're 18 650s and besides doesn't

00:00:15

matter what you've read on the internet

00:00:16

this isn't just an electric Lotus Elise

00:00:19

in fact the Tesla Roadster shares one

00:00:22

tenth as many parts with the Elise as

00:00:25

you share jeans with Elon Musk and all

00:00:29

of you with one possible exception are

00:00:31

not Elon Musk because if you were Elon

00:00:34

Musk you'd know that this thing could

00:00:36

have been worth 35 million dollars

00:00:42

explanation well if the person who paid

00:00:45

a hundred thousand dollars for a Tesla

00:00:47

Roadster had instead bought a hundred

00:00:49

thousand dollars worth of Tesla stock it

00:00:52

would have been worth over 35 million

00:00:54

dollars when the car turned 11 years old

00:00:56

so this wasn't just not an electric

00:00:59

Lotus Elise it was also the world's

00:01:01

worst investment in

00:01:03

simultaneously the seed Capital to

00:01:06

create the most valuable automaker in

00:01:08

the history of the world and it did that

00:01:11

by tricking the coolest people in the

00:01:13

world car enthusiasts into believing

00:01:16

that an electric car wasn't a slow

00:01:18

miserable joke

00:01:19

because For the First time ever a car

00:01:22

that was electric wasn't

00:01:23

a slow miserable joke

00:01:25

[Music]

00:01:37

love or hate electric vehicles love or

00:01:40

hate Elon Musk the Tesla Roadster was an

00:01:43

incredibly well thought out ruse

00:01:45

engineered to trick the world's coolest

00:01:47

people car enthusiasts into allowing the

00:01:50

idea of change and this whole story

00:01:52

starts in Michigan with a motorcycle

00:01:54

engine kit car built at home by a Ford

00:01:58

engineer

00:02:00

this was the Pion Tech sport Tech in

00:02:03

1989 its creator Dave Pion Tech made the

00:02:06

first one in his garage it took him 2

00:02:10

000 hours and cost him fifteen thousand

00:02:12

dollars and used a welded steel tube

00:02:15

frame to mount a 1300 CC Suzuki twin cam

00:02:19

16 valve four-cylinder with a 5-speed

00:02:22

manual 150 horsepower plus nitrous and

00:02:25

just 1234 pounds to move it hit 60 miles

00:02:29

an hour in just four and a half seconds

00:02:32

exactly as quick as the world beating

00:02:35

giant slaying Corvette ZR1 which hadn't

00:02:39

yet even entered production pintek

00:02:41

ultimately wound up building six sport

00:02:43

techs one of which was purchased by a

00:02:45

Young Southern California company called

00:02:47

AC propulsion AC propulsion's mission

00:02:50

was to advance the art of the electric

00:02:52

car in other words to convince people

00:02:54

that electric cars warrant slow

00:02:56

miserable piles with barely enough

00:02:58

range to complete a marathon with which

00:03:00

is exactly what they were

00:03:03

AC propulsion was co-founded by one of

00:03:06

the engineers who had worked on the GM

00:03:08

impact the incredible show car that

00:03:10

eventually became the ev1

00:03:14

AC's own first car was called the t0

00:03:17

named for the mathematical symbol T Sub

00:03:19

Zero or the beginning the t0 was a Pion

00:03:23

Tech sport Tech converted to run on

00:03:25

electricity and it used 28 Optima Yellow

00:03:29

top lead acid batteries

00:03:32

this thing look this was January of 1997

00:03:36

and the only other electric car you

00:03:38

could buy you couldn't buy it you could

00:03:40

lease it but it was that very GM ev1

00:03:43

which had gone on sale just a month

00:03:44

earlier and it too ran on lead acid

00:03:48

batteries and for perspective on just

00:03:51

how revolutionary the ev1 was GM also

00:03:55

leased another electric car a Chevy S10

00:03:57

pickup converted to front-wheel drive

00:03:59

with an EPA range of 33 miles

00:04:04

walking distance that's why the GM ev1

00:04:08

was so revolutionary it could do 79

00:04:11

miles on a charge and the t0 could do

00:04:14

90. that was a hell of an achievement

00:04:16

this was his absolutely high tech as EVS

00:04:20

came

00:04:21

the t0 was also as fast as they came it

00:04:24

hit 60 in 4.1 seconds this is important

00:04:28

it was quicker than the 10 000 RPM

00:04:32

screaming nitrous injected Pion Tech AC

00:04:35

propulsion put 63 000 miles on the t0

00:04:38

and in the process got noticed by a

00:04:41

bunch of nerds

00:04:43

no not Elon not yet okay bear with me

00:04:47

because this sounds like a neighborhood

00:04:48

sitcom AC propulsions president had a

00:04:52

neighbor who drove an electric Toyota

00:04:54

RAV4 this was another one of those 1997

00:04:57

appearances of Elise only electric

00:04:58

vehicle anyway the RAV4 driving neighbor

00:05:01

worked with a nerd named Martin Everhart

00:05:04

who was a computer and electrical

00:05:06

engineer who had made some money and

00:05:08

wanted to drive a sports car but didn't

00:05:10

like the idea of destroying the planet

00:05:11

remember his name Martin Everhart

00:05:14

because he's a key player

00:05:17

anyway RAV4 dude introduces Eberhart to

00:05:21

the AC propulsion guy so he could test

00:05:23

drive a t-0 and Everhart wanted one but

00:05:27

Everhart wanted it to be even better so

00:05:29

he used his big brain to help AC

00:05:31

propulsion convert the t0 to run on

00:05:34

lithium ion batteries which are two

00:05:36

rungs up the ladder from those old lead

00:05:39

acid batteries

00:05:41

the next step up and the hottest craze

00:05:44

in Battery tech at the time was nickel

00:05:46

metal hydride the RAV4 used those custom

00:05:49

lithium ion batteries were by comparison

00:05:52

way more expensive so much so that they

00:05:55

weren't even a consideration for use in

00:05:57

cars except this was the Big Bang the

00:06:01

moment at which suddenly the electric

00:06:02

car became feasible instead of expensive

00:06:06

custom Prismatic batteries Eberhard came

00:06:08

up with the idea of using mass-produced

00:06:10

inexpensive off-the-shelf commodity

00:06:13

small format cylindrical batteries like

00:06:16

the kind you'd find in your laptop

00:06:19

[Music]

00:06:20

18650s to be precise 18 millimeters wide

00:06:24

65.0 millimeters long a bit bigger than

00:06:27

a double A put a bunch of these cells

00:06:30

into a liquid cooled enclosure and blemo

00:06:33

you have a big reliable inexpensive car

00:06:37

battery

00:06:38

the t0 used 6 000 of those 18650s and

00:06:43

still wound up weighing 500 pounds less

00:06:45

than the old version with the 28 yellow

00:06:47

tops in it and it got even quicker 0-60

00:06:50

was now unheard of 3.7 seconds but the

00:06:54

real sea change was in range which went

00:06:57

from 90 miles

00:06:58

to 300.

00:07:02

oh ladies and gentlemen we have liftoff

00:07:04

especially since

00:07:07

6800 lithium 18650s cost less than even

00:07:11

those fancy nickel metal hydride

00:07:13

batteries in the RAV4 and they contained

00:07:16

twice the energy

00:07:18

Everhart took that t0 back up to

00:07:20

Northern California and drove it for

00:07:22

three months as his daily all the while

00:07:24

trying to convince the AC propulsion

00:07:26

guys to put the thing into regular

00:07:28

production and they said no they were

00:07:31

working on an electric conversion of the

00:07:33

Scion XP called the e-box that would be

00:07:36

the way to save the planet they thought

00:07:38

an electric commuter car has far more

00:07:40

earth-saving potential than a low volume

00:07:43

sports car right

00:07:45

wrong

00:07:47

well have you ever seen an e-box right

00:07:50

even though Tom Hanks bought one thing

00:07:52

is the Nerds really needed something

00:07:54

sexy to convince the world that EVS

00:07:57

could work so Everhart came up with the

00:08:00

name and Incorporated Tesla Inc the

00:08:02

company's guiding principles were to

00:08:04

make EVS that weren't compromised in

00:08:07

fact they should be even better than

00:08:08

their internal combustion counterparts

00:08:10

and they had to appeal to even the most

00:08:12

die-hard car enthusiasts like you ended

00:08:16

me and now you can finally enter Elon Musk

00:08:20

with his McLaren F1 flush with cash from

00:08:22

his sale of PayPal Elon also test drove

00:08:26

a t-0 and he also wanted to buy one and

00:08:30

he also tried to convince AC propulsion

00:08:32

to commercialize it

00:08:34

and once again they just pointed towards

00:08:36

their e-box but they did one thing very

00:08:38

right they introduced Elon Musk to

00:08:41

Martin Everhart this was where the

00:08:43

rubber really hit the road though

00:08:45

eberhardt had already been talking to

00:08:48

Lotus about building a lightweight

00:08:50

chassis

00:08:51

after all Lotus had the patent on bonded

00:08:54

and extruded aluminum chassis design the

00:08:56

little Elise was a great place to start

00:08:59

but it didn't end with the Elise don't

00:09:01

forget Lotus was as much an engineering

00:09:04

consultancy as it was a car maker and

00:09:06

its little black book of clients

00:09:08

included everybody which gave Tesla

00:09:11

access to suppliers who would have

00:09:13

otherwise never taken their call

00:09:16

bonjour thank you for calling Michelin

00:09:18

Tires

00:09:19

you what what is an Elon Musk that

00:09:24

smells it sounds disgusting you should

00:09:26

take care of it with Lysol

00:09:28

[Music]

00:09:30

so Tesla worked together with lotus to

00:09:33

make enormous substantive changes to the

00:09:35

elise's chassis though some of the

00:09:37

engineering and Manufacturing

00:09:38

fundamentals stuck around the details

00:09:41

didn't in the end not all that much

00:09:44

Elise remains in the Roadster its side

00:09:47

Sills are 1.6 inches lower so humans can

00:09:50

actually get in and out and it has a

00:09:52

wheelbase two inches longer than the

00:09:54

elisas both for a better ride and more

00:09:56

space for the battery

00:09:57

the glass wiper mirrors steering column

00:10:00

front suspension wishbones rollover

00:10:02

structure and soft top are pretty much

00:10:05

it they may look a lot alike especially

00:10:07

from the waist up but the Lotus Elise

00:10:10

and Tesla Roadster share only seven

00:10:12

percent of their parts

00:10:13

to put it in perspective any two humans

00:10:16

share 99.6 percent of their DNA we like

00:10:20

to think of ourselves as individual

00:10:21

snowflakes

00:10:23

The Styling was done by Barney Hatt at

00:10:26

Lotus the entire body was carbon fiber

00:10:29

even the bonded front crash structure

00:10:32

was made of carbon unlike the Elise and

00:10:34

its cumbersome fiberglass clam shells

00:10:36

the Roadster had removable bumpers and

00:10:39

fenders the chassis was built on the

00:10:41

same line as the Elise and then was put

00:10:44

in a plane and air freighted to Menlo

00:10:46

Park California where it became a

00:10:49

completed Tesla the missing piece was of

00:10:52

course the powertrain starting with

00:10:56

6831 of those little laptop batteries a

00:10:59

thousand pounds worth they were put into

00:11:01

an enclosure that was bolted in becoming

00:11:03

a structural member and making this

00:11:05

thing's chassis stronger than that of

00:11:07

the Elise all of those electrons flowed

00:11:10

to a 248 horsepower motor through a

00:11:12

Power Electronics module licensed from

00:11:15

you guessed it AC propulsion

00:11:18

not that one this one is a later car and

00:11:20

it's different

00:11:22

in order to get a top speed approaching

00:11:25

130 miles an hour and have incredibly

00:11:27

quick acceleration the Roadster needed a

00:11:30

two-speed transmission it was supplied

00:11:32

by extract and would let the car get to

00:11:34

60 miles an hour in around 4 seconds in

00:11:37

first gear and then shift into second

00:11:40

and explode immediately the problem was

00:11:44

the transmission didn't have a clutch

00:11:46

the concept was to accomplish the shift

00:11:48

using motor control but the motor speed

00:11:51

took too long to come down and so

00:11:53

absorbing the rotational inertia of a 13

00:11:57

000 RPM electric motor was just Way

00:12:00

Beyond the physical capabilities of the

00:12:01

transmission

00:12:02

alas

00:12:04

kaboom

00:12:06

so Tesla then switched to another two

00:12:08

speed this one made by Ricardo which had

00:12:10

two clutches it would also get the

00:12:13

Roadster to 60 in first gear and then

00:12:15

attempt to bang off a shift within 0.3

00:12:18

seconds emphasis on the word bang

00:12:20

because what would actually happen is

00:12:22

the second gear clutch would explode

00:12:24

sending shrapnel through the gear set

00:12:25

and

00:12:26

boom

00:12:28

race to get a working two-speed was on

00:12:31

and it wound up being won by Electronics

00:12:34

a new igbt or insulated gate bipolar

00:12:37

transistor allowed sufficient current

00:12:39

flow to hit both Tesla's 0-60 goal and

00:12:43

its top speed Target without using

00:12:46

multiple gears the transmission became a

00:12:48

simple single speed made by Borg Warner

00:12:51

which just proves the old saying third

00:12:53

is a charm

00:12:55

crisis averted right no because the big

00:12:58

problem was the EPA test procedure had

00:13:01

been returning a range of 182 miles far

00:13:04

fewer than the 250 mile range that Tesla

00:13:07

had been promising all of the people who

00:13:09

plunked down a hundred thousand dollars

00:13:11

on a still to be produced Roadster

00:13:14

[Music]

00:13:16

this is where Tesla really

00:13:18

differentiated itself from every

00:13:20

traditional car maker on the planet any

00:13:23

of them would have just kept its mouth

00:13:24

shut covered everything up and wound up

00:13:26

in court Tesla overshared it sent a

00:13:30

letter to all of the order holders

00:13:31

saying hey you know we're not going to

00:13:33

hit 250 miles but we promise we'll at

00:13:36

least hit 200. this though they didn't

00:13:39

even know how they'd get to 200. we all

00:13:42

know Elon Musk has perhaps the worst

00:13:44

over-promiser and under deliverer in the

00:13:47

industry except in those cases where he

00:13:50

under promises and then vastly over

00:13:52

delivers conventional wisdom would solve

00:13:54

both of those problems by telling Elon

00:13:56

to just shut up but that seems like

00:13:59

something he's incapable of doing and it

00:14:02

saved Tesla because when reservation

00:14:04

holders for the Roadster would get

00:14:06

really pissed off that it was months and

00:14:09

months and months behind schedule Elon

00:14:11

opened up and became a human being to

00:14:14

them he called the town hall and he said

00:14:17

to them he admitted that engineering a

00:14:19

car was and I quote like eating icky and

00:14:22

glass and then he continued not just a

00:14:24

little bit of glass like eating a glass

00:14:26

of bologna sandwich

00:14:27

and then he personally promised to pay

00:14:31

back each and every one of those

00:14:32

reservation holders if Tesla couldn't

00:14:34

deliver the Roadster

00:14:35

and when pressed on whether he'd be able

00:14:37

to afford to do it he said fine if I

00:14:39

can't then I'll work for the rest of my

00:14:41

life to pay you back

00:14:43

imagine a Ford executive saying

00:14:46

something like that

00:14:47

foreign

00:14:49

Tesla had a Blog where they shared the

00:14:51

Engineering Process with customers and

00:14:53

they shared the news every time they

00:14:55

invented a way of getting more range a

00:14:57

couple more miles here with rollback

00:14:59

brake caliper seals that pried the pads

00:15:01

off the surface of the rotor a couple

00:15:03

more there with some tire pressure

00:15:05

changes and a few more over here by

00:15:07

geniusly having the computer super cool

00:15:10

the battery when in range mode using

00:15:12

Mains power so the battery wouldn't have

00:15:14

to use its own power to cool itself the

00:15:17

engineering Solutions were genius but

00:15:20

the honesty even more so by involving

00:15:23

customers in the process good and bad

00:15:26

Elon created an army of people who

00:15:29

believed in his company because they

00:15:31

could see that Tesla was genuinely

00:15:33

trying and then of course Tesla over

00:15:36

delivered on all of its promises anyway

00:15:39

the Roadster didn't just barely eke out

00:15:42

200 miles of range it was rated at 244

00:15:45

and it was a revelation Revelation

00:15:48

Revelation Revelation I found this out

00:15:51

in 2009 when I was the first person to

00:15:54

convince Tesla to give a journalist a

00:15:56

multi-day loan of the Roadster I pitched

00:15:58

the story to my editors at Automobile

00:16:00

Magazine as a way to show that this

00:16:02

Silicon Valley show knew nothing

00:16:04

about how to build a car and I would

00:16:07

prove that you'd have to be a to

00:16:09

buy one of these things over a Lotus

00:16:11

Elise which cost half as much

00:16:14

boy was I wrong I loved it and I

00:16:17

remember saying that out loud to myself

00:16:19

within 500 feet of leaving the Tesla

00:16:21

Factory sideways doing a small burnout

00:16:23

across a couple Lanes of traffic

00:16:24

arriving at a red light right next to a

00:16:27

cop who hadn't even noticed me cop

00:16:29

doesn't hear it you didn't do it over

00:16:32

the course of five days I drag raced it

00:16:34

I went grocery shopping in it I put it

00:16:36

on a dino I tore up the back roads I

00:16:39

bought my house in it and during the

00:16:41

concluding photo shoot I learned that

00:16:42

Michael Jackson had died it was a hell

00:16:45

of a week from my notes this story was

00:16:48

supposed to examine whether I could

00:16:50

force myself to live with an EV for a

00:16:53

whole week now I don't want to live

00:16:55

without one

00:16:56

I was the biggest skeptic there is and

00:16:58

yet I'm a complete convert

00:17:01

and an idiot

00:17:03

the interior was stunning way nicer than

00:17:06

any Lotus Elise especially this late

00:17:08

Roadster with its gorgeous full leather

00:17:10

cabin I even love the noise those

00:17:13

transmission gears made a were and that

00:17:16

was by design it was such a cool noise

00:17:18

that the producers of the 2008 Dark

00:17:20

Knight film put a Tesla Roadster on a

00:17:23

Dyno sampled its sound and used it as

00:17:26

the basis for the soundtrack of Batman's

00:17:28

batpom

00:17:31

everybody loved the Tesla Roadster

00:17:34

except for the accounts it sold for

00:17:36

about a hundred thousand bucks but

00:17:37

Tesla's bill of materials was a hundred

00:17:40

and forty thousand dollars meaning this

00:17:43

wasn't just a bad investment relative to

00:17:45

the hundred thousand dollars of Tesla

00:17:46

stock you could have bought instead of

00:17:48

one of these it was a money loser for

00:17:50

Tesla itself

00:17:53

But ultimately what it did was show car

00:17:55

enthusiasts that electric sports cars

00:17:57

could be faster than combustion sports

00:17:59

cars which opened the door for the model

00:18:01

S which showed car enthusiasts that an

00:18:03

electric luxury sedan could be faster

00:18:05

than a hyper car which then showed the

00:18:08

world that an electric car would be cool

00:18:10

so long as it isn't a golf cart with a

00:18:13

license plate on it like the e-box would

00:18:16

have been look AC propulsion had the

00:18:18

technology but it was Eberhard and Elon

00:18:20

enthusiasts who understood that a shift

00:18:23

to electric vehicles couldn't happen

00:18:25

quickly but the electric vehicles had to

00:18:28

be quick to make them cool and then once

00:18:31

they were cool normal people might want

00:18:33

to drive them if you don't think an

00:18:36

electric sports car is cool

00:18:38

because you haven't driven a Tesla

Description:

This is the story of the Tesla Roadster — and thus, the beginnings of Tesla, which has grown to be the most valuable automaker in history. If you like this content, consider becoming a member of Hagerty Driver's Club! More info here: https://www.hagerty.com/drivers-club/?aff=prt_hdc Tesla's promised new roadster is a very different thing — this Roadster went into production at a time when electric vehicles weren't just in their infancy, they were a joke, disregarded by enthusiasts and regular customers alike. The story begins with the Piontek Sportech, which was a home-built tube-frame sports car created by Ford Engineer Dave Piontek in his garage in Michigan. It used a 1300-cc Suzuki 4-cylinder motorcycle engine (with Nitrous injection) and could hit 60 mph in just 4.5 seconds, weighing only 1234 lb. A California-based startup called AC Propulsion bought one of the Sport-Techs and converted it to run on Optima Yellow-Top lead-acid batteries. They called it the tZero, and a prospective customer, Martin Eberhard, drove it and wanted to buy one — but only if it used Lithium-Ion batteries. Bypassing the expensive Nickel-Metal-Hydride batteries that were leading edge, Eberhard helped AC Propulsion go straight to small-format cylindrical Lithium-Ion batteries, which had vastly more capacity, were much lighter, and were ultimately cheaper. The result was 60 mph in 3.7 seconds, and a newly minted millionaire named Elon Musk wanted one, too. He joined forces with Eberhard, who had created Tesla Inc., and they worked directly with Lotus to extensively modify the Elise to become the Tesla Roadster. In the end, the Elise's fundamentals remained, but the details didn't, and the Roadster emerged its own car. Tesla, at the same time, emerged the most valuable car company in the world. And the Roadster became the proof-of-concept that showed enthusiasts that an electric car could be fast and fun. Next up was the Model S, the first part of the the S3XY product line that has catapulted Lotus to previously unknown valuations. And it all started here. === Subscribe to our YouTube channel for new videos every day! https://www.youtube.com/hagerty?sub_confirmation=1 Visit our website for daily automotive news, cars stories, reviews, and opinion: https://www.hagerty.com/media/ Stay up to date by signing up for our email newsletters here: https://www.hagerty.com/media/newsletter/ Follow us on social media: Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/unsupportedbrowser Instagram | https://www.facebook.com/unsupportedbrowser Twitter | https://twitter.com/Hagerty If you love cars, you belong with us.
