I was browsing random stuff and documents over at Scribd when I chanced upon an interesting find: an online owner�s manual for the BEV (battery electric vehicle) supercar, the Tesla Roadster. To be specific, it�s an online manual for the 2008 model of the car, produced by California-based Tesla Motors.
Of course, only a single model has been in production since 2008, so I guess it shouldn�t be much of a problem that I failed to find a 2009 or a 2010 edition of the owner�s manual anywhere online.
Who would�ve guessed that the Tesla Roadster was just like a normal sports car? I kid. You�ll find the usual owner�s manual stuff inside the one for the spankin� hot electric vehicle, including intros, basic overviews of components and systems, driving basics and maintenance guidelines. There�s also a thorough section on technical specifications near the end. The whole thing is in there.
Just like your standard online auto repair manuals, here are also sections on how to clean the vehicle, how to replace certain parts, and make sure that your environmentally-friendly and emissions-free ride is always in tip-top shape. Of course, owning a Tesla Roadster, which is a fully electric vehicle that requires no constant oil changes, has no exhaust systems to speak of, and need no spark plug, hose or belt replacments, allows for easier maintenance because there are less systems and components compared to conventional cars.
The Tesla Roadster took the automotive world by storm with its epic performance numbers while running on battery power. As of early December of last year, there had already been 1,400 Roadsters delivered to customers in many countries.
