Tesla unveiled its next-generation Roadster car in a livestreamed video demonstration on Thursday, showcasing its ability to fly using SpaceX thruster technology.
The unveiling by Tesla was held in front of a live audience, with CEO Elon Musk onstage to introduce the first video demonstration, showcasing the car doing flips and jumping over other cars. The vehicle sped up a curved ramp, clinging to the underside with suction grip, and launched itself into a safe landing at a controlled speed.
