Tesla Roadster
The Tesla Roadster is a four-seat sports car under development by Tesla, Inc. It is designed by Franz von Holzhausen; pre-orders began in 2017. The car was expected to begin production in late 2021 after production of the Model S Plaid commences, but has since seen further delays with an unclear production start date. The casting was originally intended to be a design for the Hot Wheels id line, but was moved to the Premium line in advance. This casting features a slanted front bumper and rear diffuser to allow it to negotiate loops on Hot Wheels tracks. This casting borrows a window piece from the Matchbox Tesla Roadster.
