Interested in the Tesla Roadster? Prepare to pay a deposit of over €40,000 for a car whose final price is still unknown!
The new Tesla Roadster has been a topic of discussion for some time. Unveiled in 2017, the second generation has been eagerly awaited for over 4 years now. However, it seems that the wait is coming to an end, as Tesla is once again accepting reservations. This small event follows a few days after the inauguration of the new Gigafactory in Texas, during which Elon Musk promised a Roadster launch in 2023.
People wishing to reserve a Tesla Roadster are invited to make an initial payment of €4,000 by credit card. Within the following 10 days, they must make a second payment of €39,000 via bank transfer.
In the terms and conditions, Tesla states that the reservation does not constitute a binding commitment. In case of cancellation, the brand will fully refund the reservation payment.
This may reassure those who fear that the purchase price could be significantly higher than expected. In 2017, during the initial reservation phase, Tesla announced a base price of €172,000. The launch edition “Founder Series” was priced at €215,000.
The Roadster is no longer alone
As they wait, Tesla has given its competitors time to sharpen their weapons. Lotus, for example, made a remarkable entry into the electric supercar market with its Evija. Pininfarina has had time to develop its Battista, and Rimac has developed the formidable Nevera. Soon, Maserati will also enter the arena with its GranTurismo Folgore with 1200 hp, expected in 2022. In short, the Tesla Roadster will not be alone in the electric supercar segment!
