Part 7/13:
Tesla’s pioneering Roadster — Tesla’s first model that launched the company — remains a symbol of innovation. The current anticipation surrounds a new Tesla Roadster, unveiled about seven years ago, which is now supposedly on the brink of production. Interestingly, Musk hinted that this next-generation Roadster might even fly in the future.
This possibility is rooted in battery density innovations. Musk previously indicated that a 400 Watt-hours per kilogram battery would enable flying cars — and with current advanced batteries, that threshold is now being met. Elon Musk confirmed a “100% chance” that the new Roadster will be capable of flight, transforming it from a mere sports car into a potential personal flying vehicle.
