Tesla Roadster 2.0 — You’re not going to believe how fast this thing is!!!

The folks at Tesla may be geniuses at building fast cars (and now trucks), but man do they take their time getting to the good stuff at a press event! Elon Musk spent the first 25 minutes of his official premiere talking about Tesla’s new semi truck before finally getting around to introducing the quickest road car in the history of the automobile. (Sure, its a cool truck — revolutionary in fact, and also the quickest semi ever built — but COME ON DUDE!) Finally, the laid back Tesla CEO casually crushes the hopes and dreams of every other auto manufacturer on the planet — here’s the clip:

(You can see the complete video with all that truck stuff at the bottom of the page.) For those of you in a hurry here are the essentials on the Roadster 2.0:

0-60 in 1.9 seconds
0-100 in 4.2 seconds
1/4-mile in 8.8 seconds (eat your heart out Dodge Demon!)
Top speed: 250mph
Those numbers rival the performance of a Formula 1 race car. Well, except for the 620-mile cruising range — which is more like the range on a diesel econobox!
Our only complaint — he calls it a ‘Roadster’ but it has solid C-pillars and back glass! I guess ‘Tesla Targa’ sounds too goofy?
Whatever they call it, they need to license a model of it NOW!
