A more affordable" Tesla is coming soon. But for now and we suspect for a while yet this is the cheapest way into a Tesla. The catch? It"s only a little over 4ft long.It"s a Tesla Model S in miniature. Supposedly developed in collaboration with Tesla itself, the little S is the work of Radio Flyer a longtime builder of tricycles, wagons, scooters and the like. Designed to accommodate three to eight-year olds, the S can lug around 37kg at a maximum speed of 6mph. And because it"s a Tesla kinda we bet it reaches said speed in about a femtosecond. Probably.And like the big Tesla, there are many optional extras. Silver wheels add $15 to the $499 ( 346) base price, a premium" battery for more range adds $50 and an indoor cover another $50.Not cheap, but wouldn"t you have loved one of these when you were a kid?
