New Tesla Roadster Unveiled in Texas Ahead of 2028 Production

Tesla is set to unveil its next-generation Roadster in Texas on Thursday, nearly ten years after pre-orders opened, with production announced for 2028 and a prototype displayed at the Petersen Automotive Museum. The manufacturer highlights a retro-futuristic interface, cold gas thrusters, and a demonstration video, while promising an arrival 'very soon'; however, reservations from 2017 remain non-refundable according to a US case, and daily use of the thrusters would be limited by recharging. The presentation divides opinion on the product's positioning. In the United States, coverage emphasizes these technical, commercial aspects, and the contested reservation; in the Netherlands, it notes that an original Roadster trades above the deposit for the new model, while in South Korea, the Roadster is compared to the Hyundai Magma lineup in the wave of high-performance vehicles.
