Theres some fun here, definite positivity. The first part is an assertion of the good usually considered mutually exclusive- "sexy" and " efficient". This apparent contradiction should only exist in the minds of those truly endeavored to maintain the status quo, and he's playing his part in breaking that barrier.

Remember when efficient homes were considered unnecessarily expensive and burdened by bizarre tech? Same deal with these cars. They need early adopters to believe in them, those who can afford to fund the technology, and display it's advantageousness- or at least simply claim it's coolness. Lastly, it seems like he was pledging allegiance to this sort of new thinking, to combine paradigms rarely thought of.

Are there more informative words or statements he could have chosen? Possibly, rattling out efficiency and power and such. But why would he do that when he could make the more passionate and pragmatic statement concerning how cops pop him just to check it out and he parks at SFO for free. Honestly, those are the sorts of things he may be better qualified to relate, rather than acting as a tech fanboy. It's the approach that made apple inc what it is rather than Microsoft. Of course Jobs (and jason) is nuts for hardware and code... but it's gotta be functional. He speaks to function, not phantom specs, and his customers love it. The specs just describe the tool, though relating the cop and such describes the experience, which is endorsement which can't be objectified or bought.
