My dad owns a Tesla. I've driven it a few times. It is the greatest car ever made and anyone who disagrees can fight me.
Not even like "it's a great electric car", it's a great car full stop. It has the lowest CG ever because of its all electric drive with four motors by the wheels rather than a raised engine block. You can take corners at stupidly fast speeds without losing traction. It has fucking autopilot for freeway driving, so you can pretty much read the paper while driving (don't do that). It's mouse fart quiet - if you're a passenger not paying attention to the road, at some point you'll just feel the car pulling on you and look up and hey you went 0 to 60 on an on-ramp in 5 seconds without making any noise. If you ever get the chance, ride in one.
The only caveat is that even with a 200 mile range, you really do want a charger at home for this, so if you rent a home or have off street parking or whatever, that's not going to work well. In that case I would get a plug in hybrid or something. The Volt and the new Prius Prime both look like great options. If you aren't made of money and want an all electric car, the Bolt from GM will be out by next year and should have 200 mile range for under 30K.
