Video tutorial
Detailed instructions - The Tesla Roadster, the car created by Elon Musk, is presented at the Grand Basel show in Switzerland. The design aesthetics are very striking and aggressive, yet it remains visually appealing. The body is made of carbon fiber, featuring a very low nose and a sleek profile, lacking external mirrors and equipped with a removable roof that transforms it into a convertible. The interior, which we cannot see from the images, is minimalist and resembles some lunar vehicles seen in movies. Looking at the performance, it is impressive. It reaches and exceeds 250 mph, and the tires and braking system (ceramic discs and calipers) are suitable for these high performance levels. Additionally, it has a range of 621 miles and an acceleration capacity from 0 to 62 mph in 2.1 seconds. All these features come at a price of around $200,000.
