Tesla Motors founder Martin Eberhard, who was ousted from the company a month ago, lists the names and titles of 26 Tesla employees he claims have been fired following the installation of new management. The turnover came after the company missed its deadline to ship its first batch of 100 electric sports cars. Tesla’s new management has attributed the delay to problems with the car’s unique tranmission. Asks Eberhard, “Is this really the right time for Tesla to be tightening its belt? Get the transmission working and ship the cars. No show stoppers here!” Tesla’s VP of marketing, Darryl Siry, is a regular commenter at Jalopnik and Valleywag. Darryl, any comment?
