Tesla Roadster may finally be approaching its long-awaited world debut. According to Tesla CEO Elon Musk, the second-generation electric sports car is scheduled to be revealed on October 1, 2026.
The new Roadster has been one of the most anticipated electric performance cars since Tesla first presented the concept in 2017. The original announcement promised extraordinary figures, including a claimed 0–60 mph time of 1.9 seconds, around 620 miles of range, and a starting price of approximately $200,000.
However, the Roadster has faced repeated delays. Elon Musk previously announced other reveal and production dates, including a planned 2026 reveal on April 1. In 2024, he also said Tesla had significantly increased the car's design targets and suggested acceleration of less than one second to 60 mph.
The car has also been associated with an optional SpaceX package featuring rocket thrusters, although these ambitious ideas remain part of Tesla's previous announcements rather than confirmed production specifications.
Tesla is now showing a live countdown for the Roadster event, making October 1 the latest date for the long-awaited unveiling. The reveal should finally clarify how much of Tesla's ambitious performance targets has made it into the production-ready car.
