Initially scheduled for 2020 and then postponed twice, the Tesla Roadster is expected to be available for sale in 2022. SpaceX and Tesla owner Elon Musk, known for never doing things by halves, does not intend to disappoint. He has released some impressive new details about the future Tesla via Twitter.
Elon Musk has decided to combine his company SpaceX with Tesla to help create the Tesla Roadster.
Indeed, the Roadster will be much faster than originally thought. Initially announced as the fastest production car with a top speed of around 400km/h and a 0-100 acceleration time of 1.9 seconds, Elon Musk revealed that the 0-100 will now be achieved in 1.1 seconds thanks to a SpaceX rocket booster, positioned at the rear of the car:
“With the optional SpaceX rocket booster package. It will be safe, but very intense. Probably not wise for those with health issues, like roller coasters,” he said on Twitter, in response to a user.
Elon Musk also said that the Roadster will have a range of 998 kilometres thanks to an engine in the front and two others that will power all four wheels.
As for its base price, it is expected to start at $200,000 (€172,000) for the standard version, while the Founders Series version, limited to 1,000 units, will cost $250,000 (€215,000). Expect to pay around $50,000 if you want to reserve your model.
Although it is not expected until 2022, if you are curious to see what it looks like, you can already see one on display at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, USA https://brasil-libido.com/!
