In addition to discussing Cybertruck, and demonstrating The Boring Company's tunnel, the guys discussed Roadster 2.0. According to Musk, the car will have rocket thrusters. Tesla will offer a special option with SpaceX cold gas thrusters on the upcoming Roadster.
This option will use SpaceX cold gas thruster system with ultra high-pressure air in a composite over-wrapped pressure vessel in place of the 2 rear seats.
SpaceX option package for new Tesla Roadster will include ~ 10 small rocket thrusters arranged seamlessly around car. These rocket engines dramatically improve acceleration, top speed, braking & cornering.
Well, after such amazing details, who would not want to have a Roadster?
