As far as we remember, watchmaker TAG Heuer has never before been associated with an electric sports car company like Tesla. TAG Heuer has been closely associated with top-notch racing teams in the past but it now understands that even the performance seeking drivers need to ride on green wheels, which is why TAG Heuer has joined hands to build a one-off Tesla roadster. Currently on display at the ongoing 80th Geneva Motor Show, this electric roadster will feature a centre console hosting TAG Heuer’s latest concept watch that is to be separately revealed in a star-studded party at Baselworld 2010. Other Heuer influences in the car will include a TAG Heuer Meridiist mobile phone and a one-fifth second Heuer Limited Edition Stopwatch.

There haven’t been many places where you could find the images of the world’s fastest electric roadster — Tesla Roadster Sport, but thanks to the first dedicated store opening in the East Coast, the pictures are finally out. This will definitely be a car to look out for as not many (indeed none of the cars until date) electric roadsters can clock a 0 to 60 timing of 3.7 seconds, bettering the 3.9 of the previous variant. There is also a slight power boost from hard-wound stator and increased winding density, a set of high-performance tires, with a revised suspension with adjustable dampers and anti-roll bars and minor exterior changes including black hood vents and similar wheels. The enthusiasts could get this one home in June next year for a starting price of $128,500.
