Elon Musk’s recent tweet about the Tesla Roadster claiming to be “the quickest car in the world” has caused controversy. While the car is claimed to be the fastest in the world, Musk admitted that it takes 2.1 seconds to hit 60mph, which is 0.2 seconds slower than the marketing on Tesla’s website. Musk also hinted that a “rocket thruster” option is needed to achieve the previous acceleration claim. This discrepancy has caught the attention of news websites, raising concerns for customers who have pre-ordered the car. Despite the controversy, Tesla is still taking orders for the highly anticipated new model, which is expected to go into production next year.
