The Tesla Roadster may set a new record for distance traveled on a single charge. The car has finished the entire 241-mile-long Rallye Monte Carlo d’Energies Alternatives without draining its battery. The current distance record, a 375-mile run completed by a Solectria Sunrise, is technically longer than the Tesla’s 341-mile achievement. The Tesla’s battery also showed approx. 38 miles of juice left in the battery that is longer than the Solectria’s record. [Reg Hardware]
