Tesla’s new second-generation Roadster will be the fastest production car ever made
Musk claimed the base model will do 0 to 60 in 1.9 seconds. If true, that would make it the first time a production vehicle cracked the two-second threshold. He also said the new Roadster would climb from 0 to 100 mph in 4.2 seconds, and will clear the quarter mile in 8.9 seconds (in case the Fast & Furious drag race franchise comes calling).
“It’ll be faster than that jet over there,” Musk quipped, as an airplane soared over the exultant crowd crammed into Tesla’s Hawthorne, California facility.
