Tesla plans to unveil second-generation Roadster on October 1
Tesla announced it will reveal its second-generation Roadster on October 1.

Official launch date confirmed
The electric vehicle company posted a message on X indicating the event will happen on that day. A graphic accompanying the post displayed the numbers 10.01 to mark the specific date. This announcement follows multiple previous delays for the hypercar project since its initial 2017 reveal.
SpaceX thruster technology included
The vehicle will feature optional cold gas thrusters developed by SpaceX. These components are intended to allow the car to fly in some capacity. The design has replaced an earlier version that was reportedly abandoned years ago.
Production timeline remains distant
Elon Musk stated that actual production will not begin for at least twelve months after the reveal. Customers who paid a reservation fee last year have waited nearly a decade for this update. Some early buyers have already canceled their orders due to the long wait.
