Tesla confirms $60,000 Model S hybrid sedan
Tesla Motors officially confirmed on Monday that it will be adding a new hybrid sedan to its lineup, known internally as the Model S. In addition to the confirmation, Tesla also announced the new model will be built in California, but failed to name a specific location.
Tesla was originally planning to build its new hybrid sedan in New Mexico, but a recently passed incentive program will keep Tesla production exclusive to California. The program allows for a sales tax exemption on any manufacturing equipment used to produce electric vehicles and also includes grants for training new employees, which will save Tesla millions.

4sec? No way.
They will use the exact same power plant. So ratio by the expected weight increase. Still should be ok though.
