Elon Musk just held the official re-reveal of the production Tesla Roadster, and the claims are beyond wild.
Nine years after the initial concept was unveiled, Tesla brought out a completely redesigned machine with mind-bending performance claims, live stunt demos, and SpaceX-derived cold-gas thrusters. In this video, we break down all the outrageous details from the live event, including:
Insane Acceleration: A claimed 0–60 mph time of 0.81 seconds during the live demo using cold-gas thrusters and ground-effect suction fans.
2 Gs of Downforce: Suction technology allowing the car to stick to ramps—and even stop upside down.
Actual “Flight”: Live demonstrations showing compressed-gas thrusters helping the car launch, jump over vehicles, and land.
Three Wild Trims: From the base Performance to the thruster-backed Thrust, all the way up to the invite-only, single-seat Rocket version built for aerial maneuvers.
The Catch? Redesigned as a two-seater coupe, slated for 2028 production—and a twist ending you won’t want to miss.
