Tesla has unveiled its next-gen Roadster, a car that can seemingly fly. CEO Elon Musk showcased it with acrobatic stunts, including driving over other Tesla models and an inverted ramp landing. The car will finally be built in 2028 but the exact price remains a mystery. With 10 SpaceX thrusters, it promises 0-60mph in one second and 300 miles of range. Musk also hinted at a daring canyon jump attempt.
Despite the car’s impressive features and the $250,000 reserve price for the Thrust trim, safety isn’t Tesla’s top priority. Musk said, 'If safety is your number one goal, do not buy the Roadster.' The car’s design is inspired by the SR-71 and F-35, with a more angular look reminiscent of a Lamborghini. It’s the culmination of Tesla and SpaceX engineering, promising to be something out of a movie.
The Roadster project has been delayed multiple times, with Musk initially aiming for delivery years ago. Even with the car’s long development, some high-profile customers like Marques Brownlee and Sam Altman have openly criticized the delays. Tesla still hasn’t named a price for the car, only confirming it will offer three trims: Performance, Thrust and Rocket.
Musk has positioned the Roadster as a true halo car for Tesla, saying it may not significantly boost revenue. However, the vehicle’s unique features and potential for spectacle mean it might just make history, or at least a thrilling ride for those willing to take the risk.
