Feels like a sci-fi movie. Musk really is incredible.
Tesla’s second-generation Roadster launch event, October 15, 2026.
The new Roadster demonstrated brief flights and stunts using a SpaceX cold-gas thruster system plus a suction-fan system, including driving up an inverted ramp, driving upside down, then flipping through the air and landing. It also took off straight from level ground, soared over a row of Tesla vehicles, and landed after doing a midair roll.
Musk said at the event, “This is the car that will be street-legal.” Production is planned for around 2028.
Less than two hours after the demo, $TSLA went from 362.6 to 373.8 (+3.1%), and $SPCX went from 148.3 to 151.4 (+2.1%). The U.S. stock market is currently closed, so this is just the first after-hours reaction.
Originally announced in 2017 and slated for delivery in 2020, the Roadster wasn’t demonstrated until yesterday. Better late than never—this is classic Musk Time 😂. But even today, it still manages to leave people amazed.
Musk really is building the future of human civilization. $TSLAB
