The delay of the Tesla Roadster was not a massive surprise to me, the car since it was revealed was stuck up in the air, it was the first electric hypercar to be released at a big scale. Elon musk along with Tesla engineers tried as hard as they could to make this car perform better than other hypercars, be fully electric and not cost a fortune. In my eyes that is a whole lot to ask for don't you think?
Well, people (including me) had hoped this will all come to fruition and that we will see the roads fill up with Roadsters. Well, unfortunately recently Tesla announced that they will have to delay the release of the roadster until 2022 due to issues with the car's tri-motor drive system and advanced battery work.
Now I know the car has been announced in 2017 and delayed for the second time, but Tesla vehicles are meant to be revolutionary, and I think that Elon Musk is taking the correct steps for the Roadster to be successful. He does not want to rush the car and let it come out in poor condition, with it not being able to reach the speeds and having the range that the batteries are meant to have. This would just completely kill the roadster and catastrophically diminish any hype it accumulated in the past few years.
That is one of the biggest factors why Tesla vehicles are so wanted and popular in 2021, they offer you something no other car can offer, fully autonomous driving experience? only Tesla, huge iPad that you can play games on as your in-car tech. Whilst all of the other car makers like Audi, BMW and Mercedes are fighting against each other trying to one-up each other with small things such as interior changes and changing the lights. Tesla is in a market of its own if I was to ask you, right now you can choose an electric car you want and take it home, what would you choose?
A Prius? I doubt it I'm sure you are taking a Tesla.
Tesla is trying to be a luxury/innovative car maker that keeps the automotive game fun, but they want to make sure they release a flawless product that they can be proud of, what are your thoughts on the roadster delay?
