Entrepreneur Elon Musk has three passions: the Internet space exploration and clean energy. The first paid off handsomely for him in 2002 when he sold PayPal to eBay for $1.5 billion in stock. The second is fueled by SpaceX a company that makes space launch vehicles. Musk’s third passion is Tesla Motors which makes the Tesla Roadster an electric sports car that claims to go 244 miles per charge and sells for $101 500 or more. In the first of a two-part interview with Wharton Entrepreneurial Programs and Knowledge at Wharton Musk speaks with management professor John Paul MacDuffie co-director of the International Motor Vehicle Program about electric cars hybrids the Tesla and the mysterious ways of Detroit.
