Tesla Reopens Roadster Reservations as October Reveal Looms

Tesla has reopened reservations for the next-gen Roadster ahead of its October 1 reveal in Waco, Texas, with a refundable $50,000 deposit ($5,000 due now and $45,000 within 10 days). The final price will be confirmed when configurators go live, as pricing is still an estimate after years of delays and changes from the original plans; the design has shifted to a sharper, Cyber-inspired look, and Musk has teased extreme performance amid ongoing production uncertainties.
