| IPO Or Not, Tesla Won't Survive As Independent, Analysts Say Posted: 30 Jun 2010 12:12 PM PDT  Quick, name the last automaker to go public before yesterday's Tesla Motors IPO. Stumped? It was Ford Motor Company. The year was 1956. Perhaps buyers of Tesla Motors stock [NSDQ:TSLA] were optimistic because they had little context to assess the comapny.

| Land Rover To Unveil Range Rover LRX Crossover Tomorrow Posted: 30 Jun 2010 11:00 AM PDT  Looking back to Land Rover's history with the Defender, the idea of a compact Range Rover shouldn't be shocking.

| Think Unveils EVCup Race-Ready City: Faster, Lighter, Leaner Posted: 30 Jun 2010 06:00 AM PDT  There was a time when 'electric vehicle racing' was nothing more than an oxymoron. While teams of dedicated engineers, speed junkies and volt-heads have lit up drag strips with custom-built EV quarter-mile kings for years, the concept of racing production electric vehicles has yet to take off. But Scandinavian EV company Think is about to change...
