That viral Tesla "flying car"? Here's what Tesla actually showed at Thursday's Roadster reveal near Waco:
1) The Roadster drove up a curved ramp and held itself upside down using fan suction
2) It flipped off and came down on cold-gas thrusters built with SpaceX
3) It did a "kickflip" jump over Tesla's own lineup, Semi included
And Tesla's own Roadster page, describing the invite-only Rocket trim: "So yes, it can fly." Tesla also notes that version is not approved for public road use. No price yet. Production is planned for 2028.
Would you put your name on the list, or stick with four wheels on the ground? 👇
