“Tesla Roadster 2.0 Uses SpaceX Thrusters for 0.81s 0-60 MPH and Midair Flips” — what this page in the network covers. Tesla's second-generation Roadster is pushing performance boundaries by integrating SpaceX cold gas thrusters, enabling a 0-60 mph time of just 0.81 seconds and the ability to perform midair flips. The demonstration took place at a SpaceX test facility, underscoring the deepening technology collaboration between Elon Musk's companies. While Tesla has not confirmed production timing or pricing, the prototype's capabilities suggest a future where electric vehicles borrow directly from aerospace engineering.
The Roadster's thrusters would use compressed air, stored in a SpaceX-designed pressure vessel, to provide short bursts of acceleration and even brief hovering. This could redefine supercar benchmarks and attract attention from both automotive enthusiasts and regulators. The exact availability remains unclear, but the Roadster's radical approach may accelerate interest in high-performance EVs.
