ISEA Is Raffling Off a 2016 Tesla Model S

The Illinois Solar Energy Association is dedicated to promoting awareness of solar and other renewable energy programs in the state of Illinois. As part of its fundraising effort for 2016, ISEA is raffling off a 2016 Tesla Model S, the most desirable electric car in the world.

Tickets may be purchased between now and November 30, 2016. Tickets are $100 each or four for $300. No more than 2,500 tickets will be sold, so each ticket has a 1 in 2,5000 chance of winning. The grand prize drawing will be held on December 8, 2016.

The Tesla Model S is rated one of the best cars in the world. This battery operated luxury automobile has no tailpipe emissions, which fits in perfectly with ISEA’s mission to promote a society that runs on clean, renewable electric power. The Model S is one of the safest vehicles in the world and has a 5 star crash rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

Consumer Reports consistently rates the Model S as one of the best automobiles in the world. It also says Tesla owners are more satisfied with the service they get at Tesla service centers than the owners of any other make of car, including luxury brands such as Mercedes Benz, BMW, Audi, and Lexus.

The grand prize winner will receive enough money to purchase a Tesla Model S, which as of June 1 2016, is valued at $71,200. The winner may may use that money to configure the car in the color and with the options he or she desires. Second and third prize winners will receive a battery operated Radio Flyer Model S for kids.

Tickets may be purchased online at the ISEA store. For complete rules and regulations regarding this raffle, please visit the official contest page at the ISEA website. Please note that raffle winners are responsible for all taxes and fees associated with the purchase of the Tesla Model S grand prize.

Another Chance to Win a Brand-new Tesla Model S

Another day, another chance to win one of Elon Musk’s award-winning Model S super sedans. That’s because the Illinois Solar Energy Association (ISEA) is raffling off a brand-new, all-electric Tesla Model S as part of their 2015 auction series. We covered this contest, briefly, last month, and- of the 2,000 total available raffle tickets- there are still a few left, and every purchase increases your chances of winning. Raffle tickets can be purchased on the ISEA online store until December 1, and raffle entry is $100- but four tickets can be had for just $300.

The drawing for the contest will be held publicly on December 10, 2015 at 7PM CST during the ISEA organization’s annual membership meeting, where the winner will be notified with a phone call from the ISEA Board President.

ISEA Tesla Raffle | 2014 Winner

---

As most readers of Gas 2 would probably agree, the Tesla Model S is one of the most desirable cars currently on the US market. This beautiful and fully electric vehicle has received accolades across the world, and was recently named by Car & Driver as “car of the century.” And with its 265-mile range, it has the best electric mileage-per-dollar value when compared with other electric cars on the market. The Tesla Model S also has the highest safety rating in America, yet has lightning-fast acceleration, going from 0 to 60 mph in as little as 2.8 seconds (for the highest-end model). The MSRP for the base model is about $70,000.

But the best part? The winner will get to build their own Tesla Model S! ISEA will provide the raffle winner the funds with which they can build their own, fully customized Tesla. And- since most of the cost of the car is covered- it’ll frees up the winner’s budget to add on some sweet upgrades … like, maybe insanity mode?
