Tesla CEO Elon Musk shared a post claiming that the Tesla Roadster will have the ability to fly. Although Musk did not share any details to support this claim, this statement attracted the attention of industry observers. Musk has made similar claims before, and sometimes these claims did not come true. Still, it seems certain that the new Tesla Roadster will be very fast.
It’s been seven years since the Tesla Roadster was first unveiled at Tesla’s Semi and Roadster event, and the vehicle’s debut is still awaited. The Roadster was planned as the successor to the first Roadster that Tesla launched in 2008 and was based on the Elise platform. This vehicle symbolized Tesla’s entry into the electric vehicle market. When it was first introduced, it was stated that the Roadster could accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 1.9 seconds. This speed was impressive at the time, but today there are many Tesla and Lucid vehicles with this performance. Additionally, some supercars in the Roadster category can achieve this performance in 1.7 seconds.
In 2021, Elon Musk claimed that the Tesla Roadster could accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 1.1 seconds, and that this performance would be achieved with the SpaceX option package, which includes ten small rocket boosters that will be placed around the vehicle. This feature was first announced in 2018, and this was the first time Musk claimed that the Roadster could fly.
If it goes according to plans, the Roadster is expected to be launched later this year and go into production in 2025. The starting price of the Roadster was initially set at $200,000, but current pricing information has not yet been announced by Tesla.
While more information is awaited about Elon Musk’s flying car claim, the performance features and release date of the Tesla Roadster are being followed with great curiosity.
