Tesla Roadster's Rocket Thrusters Have The Perfect Hiding Spot - CarBuzz

Tesla has every intention for its second-generation Roadster to be a hypercar killer. With a claimed 0-62 mph time of just 1.9 seconds and more than 7,000 lb-ft of torque, the next Roadster, due by 2021, will also reportedly have a top speed exceeding 250 mph. On paper, this thing sounds more like a rocket ship than a land vehicle, and perhaps that’s exactly the point. As we already know, the next Roadster will incorporate some SpaceX tech by way of a "SpaceX package” that’ll include cold air thrusters.

According to Elon Musk, these thrusters, which are essentially small rocket engines, will "dramatically improve acceleration, top speed, braking, and cornering.” Heck, Musk even hinted the Roadster could hover over the ground, similar to the DeLorean time machine. It sure as hell sounds cool.
