The 2019 Tesla Roadster is a four-seater all-electric battery-powered sports
car, made by Tesla, Inc. Tesla has said Tesla Roadster 2019 model will be
able to 0 to 97 km / h (0 to 60 mph) in 1.9 seconds, faster than any
street-legal production car to date in its November 2017 announcement. The
Roadster is the successor to a production car Tesla’s 2008 Roadster. Tesla
notes that Roadster sales will start in 2020, though not before the Tesla
Model Y goes on sale. Tesla CEO Elon Musk has said higher performance trim
levels will be available beyond the base specifications, including a model
with ~ 10 cold gas thrusters.

In 2011, at the end of the production run of the original Tesla Roadster,
Elon Musk suggested that a new version of the Roadster, without a Lotus
chassis, would return to production by 2014. The new Roadster was first
teased in 2014. On the time, it was also referred to as Model R. Tesla. In
2015, Elon Musk suggested a new Roadster in 2019, which could accelerate
faster. A tweet from Elon Musk in December 2016 reaffirmed that a second
Roadster was in the works, but still “some years away”. The second Roadster
was designed by Franz von Holzhausen.

The 2020 version of the Roadster was shown in an unexpected moment at the
end of a Tesla Semi event on November 16, 2017 – when the Roadster was
driven out of the back of one of the semi-truck trailers to the song
“Sabotage”. Musk explained the concept as follows: “The point of doing this
is to give gasoline cars a hardcore smackdown. Driving a gasoline sports car
is going to feel like a steam engine with a side of quiche.” The car will
retail for up to $ 200,000, test rides were given at the event to those who
paid the first $ 5,000 of an immediate $ 50,000 deposit to pre-order the
vehicle. Additional information followed after the teaser, such as the
various world record speeds that Tesla said it will break.

In June 2018, Elon Musk unveiled a potential feature called the “SpaceX
option package” for the Roadster. This would add about ten cold gas
thrusters to the car to improve portability; it would include an electric
pump to recharge an air tank used to provide compressed air flowing through
push nozzles to produce cold jet thrust. The air tanks, based on a
“composite overpressure pressure vessel” (COPV) also used in Falcon 9 and
Falcon Heavy rockets, would replace the rear seats. The thrusters would be
used to improve cornering, acceleration, maximum speed, and braking, working
pressure would be 10,000 psi (700 bar).
2019 Tesla Roadster Design

The second-generation 2019 Roadster is a 2 + 2 coupe with a removable glass
roof. It was designed by Franz von Holzhausen, who previously worked in
Mazda and Volkswagen. The 2019 Roadster has a 2 + 2 seating arrangement,
with smaller rear seats for two passengers. The Roadster has three electric
motors, one in front and two at the rear, which allow for all-wheel drive,
and torque vectoring during cornering. Tesla said the vehicle had a 200 kWh
(720 MJ) battery, twice Tesla’s Model S P100D capacity, and gave 1,000 km
(620 miles) range at a single charge at highway speeds. Tesla said the
torque at wheels was 10,000 Nmm (7,400 lbs). The rear wheels are larger than
the front wheels.
2019 Tesla Roadster Performance

The claims made by Musk about the Roadster acceleration, 0–97 km/hr (0-60
mph) in 1.9 seconds and 0-97 km/hr (0-60 mph) in 2.1 seconds for the base
model before adding a rocket thruster option. Its alleged time of 0 to 400 m
(0 to 1⁄4 miles) will be under 9 seconds, with a top speed exceeding 400
km/hr (250 mph). If the Roadster production achieves these performance
numbers, it will outperform the 2017 supercars and set new production car
records, none of which have yet exceeded 0–100 km/hr ( 0-62 mph) in 2.0
seconds or 9.0 seconds in the 1/4 mile. Referring to the performance, Musk
noted, “this is what we are achieving in the prototype”, It’s also noted
that the performance could improve in the production model and that the
numbers stated refer to the expected “base model”.
2019 Tesla Roadster Price

The base model was expected to sell for the US $ 200,000 but the first 1,000
to be produced, the Founder Series, as it is called, will be $250,000. Full
payment would be required to pre-order the 2019 Tesla Roadster final
vehicle.
