Tesla promises to reveal the new Roadster almost nine years after the original announcement

SAPO Tek14 September 2026 at 13:21

Tesla confirmed through social media that it will present the second generation of the Roadster on October 1st. This revelation comes almost nine years after the original announcement of this model, which was first presented in 2017.

The company promises hints about the thrusters that were developed in partnership with SpaceX, the aerospace company also founded by Elon Musk. These propulsion systems have been one of the most anticipated and promised features for the new Roadster.

The new Roadster is the second generation of this Tesla electric sports model. The electric vehicle brand has kept consumers in expectation since the initial announcement almost a decade ago, and now finally prepares to show the final product to the public.

Why this matters

This revelation directly interests Portuguese consumers who follow the electric vehicle market and may be considering the purchase of a high-performance sports car. The delay of almost nine years in presenting the model raises questions about Tesla's ability to meet deadlines and may influence the confidence of investors and buyers in the brand.
