Eight years after its presentation, this new Tesla is still not ready … but not abandoned!

Eight years and 43,000 € later, still nothing.

From its presentation, Elon Musk’s company predicts a marketing in 2020. As always with the manufacturer, the potential concerned were invited to reserve their copy, with the payment of a deposit of € 4,000, followed by … € 39,000 to pay within 10 days. A reservation that is always possible to make today on the brand’s website! Except that after eight years without concrete progress other than in the billionaire’s statements, in words or on X, the project seemed to be doomed to stay in the boxes. Especially since the brand has had a lot to do in the meantime, between the failed launch of Cybertruck, the erosion of its sales, and the multiple reminders to the order of the American authorities. All, in a context where electric sportsmen remain shunned by buyers. Even the fans most used to the repeated delays of the brand were therefore no longer an illusion of the future of this roadster … until this month of July in any case!

Before the end of the year?

During an event in California dedicated to Musk fans, the X Takeover, Lars Moravy Vice-President of Development at Tesla, confirmed that the roadster was still on track. Technological showcase of brand engineering, the model would have been revised to become the last car intended to be controlled, with total automation. Moravy also confirmed that the “epic” demonstration cited in a mysterious post published on X by Musk concerned the roadster well. Thus revealing a presentation of the final car before the end of the year! Unless it is just yet another stroke of com to maintain the flame? Response in a few months.
