Tesla is hard at work taking the knowledge they've gained developing the Model S and applying it to create a ~$30k car, which will be meant for the every man.

Until then, though, I think they deserve some recognition for beating out every car Consumer Reports has tested in their very first attempt at a sedan.

They're 2 iterations away from the "every man" car.

Model S is a 60-90k car. The next level down is likely 30-60k. The next level down is the 15-30k car (think Honda Civic/Accord).

Consumer Reports tested the $89k model.
