The Model S Is Gone, but Tesla Just Patented Its Design
Filed in May 2025 and granted this week, the patent protects the sedan’s look for 15 years, even as Musk plans to open-source its design and software.

Let's go! 14.3.3 v3 aka v15 shadow mode 😁. Hoping for no regressions and more of the same awesomeness (known issues withstanding)
Sweet! Raise the price to maintain cars you don't produce anymore. But thanks for the one-time gesture. 😎
Had to grab me one of these before they stop selling them and replace them with the cybercab performance. This is the only way to get THIS car 😢

Elon Musk just made Turbo Boost a reality.
A bunch of guys my age have been waiting our whole lives for this.
Ok so I got all of my "Roadster" predictions right except 1 which was the motors, it's not a quad or tri-motor setup but dual motor on the same axel for independent rear wheel drive.
@Hagerty has a great exclusive look and walkthrough with @larsmoravy and lots of great details everyone should watch!
@larsmoravy @woodhaus2 I am still 😠you couldn't do the base model with the original design at least! 😢

I'm loving the tech in the new roadster but how did we get from this to that? It would have been way more impressive to do all of what was shown with the original design imo 🤦🏾♂️
Since this is the result of Elon's friend saying there were no flying cars....can one of his friends say "there are no cars that look like the 2017 protoype"? 🙏🏾
Roadster transforms in Track Mode
These aero features aren't just for looks: they provide the best passive downforce package of any road car (approaching F1 levels!) with wing actuation driven by the @Tesla_Optimus actuator system
Literally the Lancia Stratos Zero! Like someone saw that and said let's make that instead of the sexy prototype we've been featuring in museums for the last 7 years! 🤣

Looks like #1 on my list is right 😎

Tesla
Roadster
It's 10.01 and since the Roadster event is rescheduled let's put our final predictions, rumors, spoilers here and see which ones make it to reality.
1) Roadster will be a fan car. A multi-mode fan car that can produce extreme down force and suction for traction and they will demo it driving upside down and sticking to the track at a srandstill upside down hence the picture. Multi-mode also allows the fans to produce assisted thrust (blowing out) to help it "levitate" with the cold gas thrusters.
2) Cold gas thrusters will help propel the car forward extremely fast, assist with cornering, and "levitate" the car🚀
3) There may be 2 variants of the car based on SpaceX options. A single seater and a 2-seater. No 4-seats 🫣
4) There will be additional SpaceX options beyond cold-gas thrusters.👨🚀
5) There will be some elements that will be hidden i.e. thrusters behind plate, or hidden headlights, etc. James Bond-esque.
6) Interior will follow current Tesla trends with White and Grey options.
7) Options will be contingent on market/region approval.
8) Roadster will be quad-motor using the plaid dual motors on both axels.
Installing a new version of FSD 14.3.12 via update 2026.38.5.1. Likely bug fixes. Hopefully this one can make it out wider to the fleet.
