How to Play Tesla Stock Ahead of Its Hotly Anticipated Roadster Reveal

Tesla (TSLA) investors have a key event to watch as the company prepares to unveil its highly anticipated next-generation Roadster, almost a decade after first showing off the electric sports car. Tesla initially scheduled the reveal for Oct. 1 but has since postponed the event to Oct. 15, citing weather concerns. The Roadster has remained one of Tesla’s most closely watched projects since its November 2017 debut, when the company promised a performance-focused EV capable of going from 0 to 60 mph in 1.9 seconds, exceeding 250 mph at top speed, and delivering up to 620 miles of range.

This latest reveal is expected to provide investors with a closer look at Tesla’s new design and performance ambitions, including the much-discussed possibility of SpaceX (SPCX)-developed cold-gas thrusters. Elon Musk has previously described cold-gas thrusters as a way to enhance the Roadster’s acceleration, braking, and cornering and potentially enable limited hovering demonstrations, though several of these capabilities remain to be confirmed for the production vehicle.
