But as we get closer to the eventual release date of the long-awaited open-top sports car, more details are coming to the forefront, giving us even more reason to be excited.
According to a report from Electrek, the new Roadster is rumored to be able to hit 60 miles per hour (96 kilometers per hour) in under two seconds. It will come from the factory with a "Maximum Plaid" mode, surpassing even "Ludicrous" mode, with the guarantee that it will best the 2.5-second 0-60 time found on the Model S.
Naturally, CEO Elon Musk weighed in on Twitter, saying that a 2.0-second target would be "interesting," but that it would "only count if capable of doing so right off the production line with street legal tires." Previously Musk stated that the new Roadster will be "the fastest Tesla."
