Elon Musk and Tesla are working on a plan to make their electric cars more affordable and improve their performance. Musk confirmed on Twitter that the upcoming open-top Roadster sports car will have a range of over 1000km between charges, rivaling the range of petrol and diesel vehicles. This will be made possible by a new 200kWh battery, double the current capacity of the Model S P100D. The Roadster is also expected to have unparalleled performance, with the ability to accelerate from 0-100km/h in 1.9 seconds. The company has also increased the range of the Model S and X by more than 10 per cent, making them more competitive with upcoming electric car models like the Porsche Taycan. This plan to improve range and performance is part of Tesla’s efforts to make their cars more appealing and accessible to consumers.
