Beyond the Tesla Model S, X, 3 and Y, there's the Tesla Model H, a radical pure electric supercar.
While Tesla's made no mention of the H, automotive designer Cosmin Ispas of IspyDesigns (see more images/details here) had no problem coming up with a rendering of this electric machine.
In addition to the CGI renderings, Ispas posted a lengthy write-up on the Tesla Model H on his design site. We've highlighted a few key points below:
Tesla company is well known for its mission to accelerate the world's transition to sustainable energy and the Model H shows how this purpose is translated in the hypercar segment.
Powertrain
Model H is powered by 6 electric motors, 2 for the front wheels and 4 for the back wheels. The graphene batteries are placed beneath the floor, more to the car’s front for a better weight balance.
Aerodynamics
From an aerodynamic perspective, the concept has a full length floor diffuser that channels the air on the car's floor as it creates a massive amount of downforce. The front vents contain a set of flaps that are hidden inside, allowing the air to flow in different ways.
Design
The Model 3 was a great source of inspiration in terms of body design, having flowing lines that define the shoulders and the sides.
Of course, this is purely a rendering and nothing more. We honestly don't think Tesla will ever venture down the radical supercar path beyond the next-gen Roadster, which is still "some years away." But dreamers such as Ispas will always dream and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.
What do you think?

In our eyes, the render reminds us a lot of the Porsche Mission E design, which heads into production in 2 years time...but nothing wrong with that, as the Porsche is a fairly handsome car in its own right:
