The new Tesla Roadster has made another appearance, this time on the streets of New York City.
A video shared on social media shows the electric supercar being carefully manoeuvred, possibly as it exits a facility, before being loaded onto a trailer. What brought it to the city is unclear. Perhaps it was there for an event or a private showcase.
The Tesla Roadster looks cool from the front, with its headlights switched on, but the rear looks cooler. Along with a wide, slim LED light bar, it features four prominent thruster outlets, giving the car an aggressive and futuristic look.
This sighting follows the car’s first public appearance since its reveal, at the Petersen Automotive Museum in California last month.
In standard form, the Roadster is claimed to produce 1,073 hp and 885 lb-ft of torque from two rear-mounted electric motors. The Performance version reportedly raises those figures to 1,350 hp and 1,033 lb-ft.
