| Subject | Rebuttal to ZEV Expert Panel Report |
| Comment | See attached. This document provides a rebuttal to the CARB ZEV Expert Panel’s position on the market potential for lithium-ion full-performance battery electric vehicles (Li-Ion FPBEVs). Tesla Motors feels that the Expert Panel failed to acknowledge the near-term market potential for Li-Ion FPBEVs and the tremendous progress of emerging OEMs in bringing these vehicles to market. Tesla Motors believes that Li-Ion FPBEVs deserve more recognition as a legitimate ZEV technology with rapidly-growing mass-market potential. |
