The Tesla CEO told podcaster Joe Rogan that the car would include ‘crazy technology,’ which is ‘better than all the James Bond cars combined,’ but the Roadster project has been plagued by setbacks and failed promises so far.
It’s been almost eight years since Tesla first announced the next-gen Tesla Roadster back in 2017, and the project has been beset by almost constant delays and setbacks since then. In the interim, numerous public figures such as OpenAI’s Sam Altman and gadget reviewer Marques Brownlee have simply asked for their $50,000 deposits back and finally canceled their orders.
But Tesla CEO Elon Musk is now yet again promising the much-delayed electric sports car could soon see the light of day. In a recent episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, Musk claimed that Tesla could “hopefully” demo its new Roadster before the end of 2025, and that the vehicle includes “crazy, crazy technology,” different from what has previously been announced.
