ev up your engines, Tesla fans, because the highly anticipated Roadster is finally hitting the road in 2025. Six years after its initial reveal, Elon Musk, the visionary behind Tesla and SpaceX, took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to announce that the Roadster will enter production next year, sending shockwaves through the automotive world.
The Roadster, a project that had been delayed as Tesla focused on other endeavors like the CyberTruck, is now back in the spotlight with Musk's latest proclamation. In a post, Musk declared, "Tonight, we radically increased the design goals for the new Tesla Roadster. There will never be another car like this, if you could even call it a car." With this statement, Musk hinted at a collaboration between Tesla and SpaceX, his rocket company, promising a vehicle unlike anything the world has seen before.
According to Musk, the production design is complete, and the official unveiling is slated for the end of this year, with deliveries expected to commence the following year. Musk's ambitious vision for the Roadster has captivated enthusiasts, with the Tesla CEO boldly proclaiming that it has the potential to be the most mind-blowing product demonstration of all time.
But perhaps the most jaw-dropping revelation from Musk's post is the Roadster's performance capability. Musk claimed that the Roadster will accelerate from 0 to 100 km's per hour in under one second, setting a new benchmark for acceleration in the automotive industry. However, Musk downplayed this feat in a subsequent post, suggesting that the sub-one-second acceleration time is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the Roadster's groundbreaking features.
Musk's language hints at a dramatic redesign of the Roadster since its initial unveiling in 2017. Originally promised to cost $200,000 ($305,000 AUD today) with four seats, three electric motors, and all-wheel drive, the Roadster appears to have undergone significant changes to achieve Musk's ambitious vision for the vehicle.
As anticipation builds for the Roadster's official unveiling later this year, Tesla enthusiasts and automotive aficionados alike are eagerly awaiting the opportunity to witness firsthand the technological marvel that Musk and his team have created.
