Tesla's next new car will be called the Model III

Tesla hasn't quite delivered its followup to the Model S yet, but at least we have a name for its first electric vehicle pointed at the mainstream. In an interview with AutoExpress , CEO Elon Musk revealed it will be called the Model III, after Ford put the kibosh on calling it the Model E.
