Drive the Model S (or maybe just the Tesla Roadster) in Gran Turismo 5
Yes, we know this isn't a Tesla. Watch the video after the jump.
Speaking to the video game freaks at IGN, video game designer Kazunori Yamauchi revealed that either the Tesla Roadster or the Model S will be available to drive in the upcoming Gran Turismo 5. We already knew that "the latest model" from Tesla would be in the game to drive and maybe smash all to hell, and the Model S would be a fun new option. Yamauchi mentions a vehicle called the Roadster S (while the video shows a picture of the Fisker Karma) and Yamauchi confirms it will appear in GT5. He also says he wants to get behind the wheel of the car IRL. No kidding. Watch the video after the jump.
Until GT5 releases in March, virtual Roadsters can be driven in Project Gotham Racing 4. Thanks to Patrick M. for the tip!

The car they show in the video, when he says Tesla Roadster S, is the Fisker Karma!!! Nice work

...not sure what happened to the second part of my comment, but:
By Roadster S, he probably meant the Roadster Sport, not Tesla's upcoming sedan, the Model S. At least that's what I'm assuming...

Good catch... It is most certainly the Fisker Karma that they show when he said Roadster S.

I have a PlayStation 3; might have to get this game if it has Tesla vehicles in it.

Not Tesla Vehicles....only one Tesla Vehicle. It will not feature the Model S only the Roadster. Maybe he is mistaken and simply calling the Roadster Sport the Roadster S. The wrong picture however (Fisker Karma) is inexcusable.

As if somehow I needed another excuse to buy GT5. Should it ever actually come to release.

The Tesla Roadster makes also an appearance in the latest 'Need for Speed Nitro' for the Wii.
