Now you can feel excitement of rapid, silent acceleration in new Tesla Roadster for only $25 per hour. Getaround, car rental company now offer thrill on electric sport car.

Getaround is a new peer-to-peer car rental start-up that lets people offer their own vehicles for rent, including luxury exotics. Its business model is similar to Google-backed RelayRides, but the company requires members to use Facebook Connect for sign-up and rental. For full details check their Getaround website.

Please note that $25 per hour rate is a special for the month of January. You must be at least 30 years old, rent for a minimum of two hours, and have a clean driving record to rent the electric sports car.

The current promotion is being offered by a Getaround member in San Francisco, but co-founder Jessica Scorpio says the company is working with Tesla to make its electric vehicles available on an ongoing basis. We hope this deal get through, as for sure this is perfect weekend rental.
