The price is not yet clear, but Tesla claims it will cost less than a traditional roof when you factor in the savings from the solar energy created.
Throw in a $5,500 Tesla Powerwall 2 (also announced today) to store all that electricity your new roof is creating while you’re at it. Or grab two of them:
So what’s your favorite style? Think Tesla is on to something big here?
