Tesla Motors: The Future Of Automotive...And How I Hope To Be A Part Of It

Truthfully, I've been a Tesla Motors fan since 2013. But as far as electric cars, that idea would've made sense, to me, as a kid.

You may recall, if you've followed me long enough online, that I got to ride in a Model S. That was via an invite, by Mitch Melassanos from the LA Fashion magazine. That was, for me, a glimpse into the future. But it also made me realize that Tesla is still in need of one more marketing angle: sports cars.

For example, a special edition of the Model 3, with a running gear out of a P90D Model S, would be the Tesla equivalent of a Mercedes sedan with an AMG conversion. Go back to muscle cars: Chevy COPO built 427 Camaros and Chevelles, Mopar does performance accessories for Dodge and Chrysler. The "Special Vehicle Team," or SVT, for the Ford Motor Company.

What should make Tesla any different? Within the walls of that company, there should be a department, or division that specializes in race-and-performance. Again, an "AMG" equivalent for the Tesla make. As a vice president or CEO, that would be the next step-up, in my car company, that I would look into investing in.

But another thing as well, and that's on the subject of sustainability. I am physically-challenged, and yeah...it's obvious that I like cars! But facts are facts: our community, like the rest, needs conveniences like voice activation, auto pilot driving and parking. 

That technology would make it possible for the physically-challenged community to drive, but it also happens to be spilling-out to the mainstream. For my community, I need to be able to make Tesla technology available, and besides racing and performance, accessibility is far more important. All of these things, I feel, are the core ideas that I am able to bring to Tesla Motors.
