Tesla delays Roadster 2 reveal event to October 15 due to weather
Tesla has postponed its second-generation Roadster reveal from October 1 to October 15 in Waco, Texas, citing severe weather forecasts.
Company cites weather concerns for delay
The company stated it tracked conditions closely with local meteorologists before making the decision. Tesla noted that the event must be held outdoors because of planned cold gas thruster integration.
Previous delays and April plans
This postponement follows many previous delays to the project timeline. Elon Musk had previously considered holding the reveal on April Fools day to allow for deniability if further issues arose.
Original concept debut history
Tesla first displayed its second-generation Roadster concept in 2017 alongside the Semi truck. The new vehicle is designed from the ground up unlike the original model based on a Lotus Elise.
