Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, stated that the new Tesla Roadster can reach 96 km/h in less than one second, in a disclosure made this year with deliveries scheduled for 2025.

Since its presentation in 2017, the eagerly awaited electric sports car has not yet been launched, but Musk promised that the model is close. He described the Roadster as a unique and potentially revolutionary product, predicting that its unveiling could be one of the most impressive in history.
The finalized design of the Roadster will be revealed by the end of the year, according to Tesla executives, who plan to start delivering to customers in 2025.
The original technical specifications promised exceptional performance, including acceleration from 0 to 96 km/h in 1.9 seconds, but Musk has suggested significant improvements since then, including the possibility of the same acceleration in less than one second with the new version of the vehicle.
Although the announcement has generated expectations, some remain skeptical about Musk‘s claims, given the company’s history regarding deadlines and promises.
