Its all about the trademarks it seems these days. Case in point, Venture Beat via Reuters reports that Tesla has applied for a trademark with the name ‘Model E’, that refers to “automobiles and structural parts therefore.” The application was filed on August 5th and is currently waiting for approval.

This has caused most everyone to go into a frenzy and try to figure out why Tesla wants to trademark 'Model E'. The going theory at the moment is that 'Model E' will be the name of Tesla's next model. The new model will be a competitor to the BMW 3-Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class.

We'll be keeping a close eye on this.

Interesting page take from FORD corporation. Guess they think they are the new auto company of the 21st century which is not far from true.

An entry level electric car is something I would love to see. Although the Model S' are awesome they are too expensive for the average Joe.
