Tesla has put the spotlight back on the new Roadster, saying it can now be reserved with a $250,000 deposit. The car is being described as an extreme electric supercar and is expected to use SpaceX-inspired solutions, including small thrusters to boost performance.
The move has also drawn attention in the United States: the Federal Aviation Administration has made clear that the vehicle does not fall under the aircraft category. For European readers, it remains a highly ambitious project with no confirmed arrival date yet.
