This coming weekend, Tomasz Gać, Jakub Stechly, and I are going to attempt to break the world record for miles driven in an electric car on a single charge.

A few years ago, we had the good fortune of meeting Steve Sasman, the “proprietor” of the Tesla Hotel. According to Steve, “One of the many benefits of the highly versatile Tesla Model S sports car is the plentiful amount of room for one or two people to sleep in the back with the seats folded down.
