What do you mean by "economically viable" and "for the American public"? I wouldn't count the Roadster because it was expensive (~$100k) and only produced in limited numbers (~2500 over its lifetime). I'd say that to count as for the American public a car has to be quite a bit more affordable than that, and quite a bit more available.
