Elon Musk is one of the wealthiest individuals in the world. Tesla is his automobile company. So, today in MotorGuide Weekly News, we are telling you about a new update regarding the Tesla Roadster.

The production version of the Tesla Roadster is scheduled to be unveiled later this year, according to the company's CEO, Elon Musk. He states that the electric model will achieve 0-60mph in under 1.0 second.

Commenting on X (formerly Twitter), Musk said the car's brief stated that "there will never be another car like it."

When the car was unveiled in 2017, it was given a 0-60 mph time of 1.9 seconds, then achieved 0-100 mph in 2.3 seconds, reaching a top speed of 250 mph.

Musk has now stated that the production version of the Roadster will exceed 60 mph in under 1.0 second. He previously said that an optional rocket-thruster package developed with SpaceX would achieve 0-60 mph in 1.1 seconds.

This is significantly faster than the 1.95-second 0-62 mph time claimed by the Rimac Nevera, currently the world's fastest production car.

Following its 2017 unveiling, Musk further states that the company, which previously announced launch dates for 2020, 2022, 2023, and 2024, is now "targeting" to begin deliveries in 2025.

He further mentioned that previous delays were caused by supply chain disruptions as well as the lengthy development of the tri-motor powertrain and advanced battery technologies.

So, this is the latest story of the Tesla Roadster, which is battling head-to-head with the world's fastest cars. MotorGuide is ready to bring you the latest information on this as soon as it becomes available.
