Tesla is continuing its promotional campaign for the second-generation Roadster by releasing a new teaser image. The company has set October 2 as the date for the official unveiling of the vehicle.

The latest image highlights the car's front fascia, featuring a prominent illuminated LED light bar. The rest of the car remains largely obscured in shadow, building anticipation for the upcoming reveal. Details regarding the interior, battery specifications, or final exterior design have not yet been disclosed.

A notable feature previously discussed by Elon Musk involves the potential integration of "thruster" technology, derived from SpaceX. These cold-gas thrusters are reportedly intended to be installed around the car to enhance acceleration and cornering capabilities. However, Tesla has not confirmed if this feature will be included in the production model.

Reservations for the Roadster require a $50,000 refundable deposit. After a temporary halt, Tesla has reopened the reservation channel for the new sports car.
