Tesla to unveil long-delayed Roadster on Oct. 1, Musk says
Tesla’s teaser suggests a flying demo with SpaceX cold-gas thrusters as the long-delayed sports car remains years behind schedule.
- On Saturday, Tesla announced an October 1 reveal for the Tesla Roadster, posting a "Go for launch" teaser image showing the electric hypercar under rocket-launch lighting with the date stamped across it.
- Nine years after the 2017 prototype, the vehicle arrives with promised SpaceX-developed cold gas thrusters designed to enable a "flying" demo, following years of delays and shifted production timelines.
- Reservation holders, including OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, remain waiting after paying $50,000 for standard models or $250,000 for the Founders Series, with Altman saying "7.5 years has felt like a long time to wait."
- The demo functions as a commercial for the Tesla-SpaceX relationship, staged with SpaceX hardware to help Musk warm Wall Street toward a potential merger between the two companies.
- Musk has acknowledged that production will not begin for another 12 or 18 months even after the October 1 reveal, meaning the announcement does not signal imminent customer availability.
