The steering wheel is a tiny, rectangular thing that looks like it came straight out of Star Trek. The seats are contoured and highly bolstered, while the color scheme incorporates large swaths of primary colors that enhance the natural “clean” feel of the layout. The user inputs are dominated by a large touchscreen, which stretches down through the center of the cabin to provide readouts on navigation, road speed, and similar stats. ![]() The space age aggression continues inside, where we find a simple dash and control layout. Large touchscreen provides the inputs- Highly bolstered sports seats- Clean layout and design- 2+2 seating arrangement- “Capacious” storage space- Targa top offers unlimited headroom What’s more, it’s obvious the Tesla Roadster 2.0 comes equipped with active aero elements that will surely keep it planted while exploring the car’s absurd speed potential, then recede back to eke out a few more miles while cruising. Drag doesn’t seem to be a major problem here, as you’ll find out in the drivetrain section below. Of course, it’s not the most streamlined Tesla we’ve ever seen, but we like it like that.

It’ll also set new standards for EVs in the realms of range per charge and top speed. And that includes internal combustion-based production vehicles, by the way. If it really can do everything that Tesla CEO Elon Musk claims it can, the second-gen Roadster will set numerous performance records, including quickest to 60 mph, quickest to 100 mph, and quickest in the quarter mile. While it’s still several years away from hitting public roads, Tesla dropped a variety of specs and numbers for the Roadster 2.0, and long story short, this thing is shaping up to be an absolute monster. Now, nearly 10 years and several remarkable models later, Tesla is at it again, revealing a second-generation Roadster in a surprise debut alongside its new all-electric semi truck.
