In recent news from Tesla, Elon Musk announced that you will be able to drop $1000 as an RSVP for a new Tesla Model 3 by the end of March, and the beginning of April online.
Reports suggest that the Tesla Model 3 will have a base price of about $35,000 USD – but adding options will almost certainly see this sticker explode.
More details coming soon.
Model 3 reservations ($1000 down) will be accepted in Tesla stores on March 31 and online April 1

The 2016 BMW 7 Series has a luxurious interior and a 444 horsepower V8 up front in case you opt for the 750i xDrive. The 2017 Alpina B7 xDrive has an even more luxurious interior and a 600 horsepower engine. So, it’s better.
Available at your very selected BMW dealers from September, the B7 xDrive is exactly what you expect from Alpina: more of everything in an elegant package.
All-in-all, it doesn’t look like a bad SuperBowl weekend for Mrs. Hova. Beyonce dropped somewhere near $10,000 per night for this mack-daddy Airbnb rental.
Located in Los Altos Hills near the Levi’s Stadium, the “contemporary masterpiece” — as the Airbnb description calls it — features five bedroom suites and eight baths, a game room with a full bar, fitness center, infinity pool, spa, and outdoor fire pit. Designed by Noel Cross Architects, the home boasts net-zero energy use, as well as containing a rooftop garden, a fruit orchard and live chickens for fresh eggs on the premise.
France is joining the Netherlands and Korea in the solar road club. The French government plans 620 miles of energy-generating pavement, which will be able to provide power for up to 8% of the country’s population.
Construction will take place over the next five years, using Wattway panels from Colas. These quarter-inch thick panels are glued straight onto the roadway, and act much like regular road—they’re strong enough for trucks, and drivers won’t easily skid when they brake while driving on them. The panels, says the manufacturer, require about 215-square-feet of surface area to generate enough electricity to power a home. That means about 0.6 miles of paved road should be enough to supply a town of 5,000 people.
Roads seem to be the perfect spot for solar power. Roads already ugly, so it’s hard to make them look worse; they’re usually not covered, so they get plenty of light; and roads are the very definition of infrastructure, so there’s no problem hooking them up to the electric grid. Provided the panels can hold up to heavy traffic, it should be an interesting experiment.

Inspired by the practice of meditation and the concept of Zen, the Nike Roshe Run epitomizes simplicity. It has no embellishments, just basic shoe necessities brought to life with every detail. Almost every part of the shoe reflects an aspect of a tranquil Zen garden: a modified Waffle outsole made to look like stepping stones, an insole that mirrors a raked rock garden, and slightly different midsole side lengths—a juxtaposition of seriousness and playfulness.
