# New Tesla Roadster: announcements, prototype and propulsion limits > The future Tesla Roadster, whose production is announced for 2028, is the subject of new announcements from Tesla, a retro‑futuristic interface unveiled, and a prototype displayed at the Petersen Automotive Museum. Tesla claims an arrival “very soon,” despite repeated delays, while the nitrogen thrusters are described as limited by long recharge phases for brief use. An original Roadster trades at a price higher than the deposit required for the new model.
