Tesla Roadster reveal delayed again

The second-generation Tesla Roadster, first announced nine years ago, is set to be unveiled this Thursday, October 15th, in Waco, Texas, after being delayed by two weeks. The original date was October 1st, but the delay was initially linked to strong winds affecting the planned event.

Event timing and broadcast details

The unveiling will be broadcast live on X (formerly Twitter) during the night of Thursday to Friday at 3:00 am Paris time (2:55 am CST). This timing means the event will occur late at night for viewers in the United States, but it will be early morning for those in Europe.

Elon Musk highlights dynamic demonstration

The presentation will include a full-scale dynamic demonstration, described by Elon Musk as "unforgettable." This suggests the event will showcase the car's performance capabilities, possibly through driving tests or other physical displays.

Outdoor venue and weather concerns

The choice of an outdoor venue and the meteorological justification for the delay suggest the demonstration will focus on the car's performance capabilities. Strong winds may have made it difficult to conduct such a display safely or effectively earlier.

Vehicle details remain undisclosed

Details about the vehicle's features, final price, and delivery timeline for customers who have paid deposits of up to 43,000 euros since 2017 remain to be revealed. The company has not yet provided specifics about what changes or improvements will be included in the new model.
