Tesla delays Roadster 2 event again due to bad weather
Tesla is pushing back the reveal of its redesigned, second-generation Roadster once again, this time due to a forecast of severe weather. Originally slated for October 1 in Waco, Texas, the event is being pushed to October 15, Tesla said. “We’ve been tracking the weather closely with local meteorologists, but given the severe conditions predicted & because this event can only be held outdoors, we’ve made the difficult decision to reschedule,” the company wrote in a post on X.

The event presumably needs to be held outdoors because Tesla has been working on integrating cold gas thrusters from SpaceX that are supposed to make the Roadster fly in some capacity. This reveal has been delayed many times before, and Musk has pushed it for months altogether before this scheduled date.
