Musk said he picked the date so he "could say I was just kidding" if it changes again. He had spent months teasing a reveal by the end of this year.

A week after saying a demo is coming at the end of the year, Musk pushed back the demo to April 1 , and production pushed back even farther.

Tesla is reportedly 2-3 years away from starting production of the highly anticipated Roadster, with potential hovering capabilities.

Tesla picked back up work on the electric sports car this summer. It could look very different from the original concept.

Tesla Roadster is again a hot topic, although competition is already miles ahead, making obsolete anything Musk might have up his sleeve

Elon Musk says Tesla is “getting close” to unveiling a prototype with “crazy technology,” fueling speculation about a flying-capable Tesla Roadster.

Elon Musk says Tesla’s next Roadster will showcase “crazy technology” — possibly even flight-like capabilities — as the automaker juggles recalls and robotaxi scrutiny.

Tesla Roadster, first unveiled in 2017 with a promise of 0-to-60 mph in (a not-that-special-anymore) 1.9 seconds, is now being teased by the CEO as perhaps possessing capabilities that defy the very definition of a car.

If you're worried about getting to the party late, don't be. Not only has the company not yet developed a concept for battery production, it said the entire Roadster architecture is still in "early development."

The year was 2017, and Elon Musk had just taken the wraps off the second-generation Tesla Roadster. The Roadster’s specifications were stunning: 0-60 mph in under two seconds and 620 miles of range on a single charge.
