Tesla shows new Roadster prototype using compressed-nitrogen thrusters and 4680 cells

Tesla unveiled a new version of its long-delayed Roadster at a late-night event, featuring wedge-shaped styling and rear-mounted nozzles that fire 100,000 psi compressed nitrogen jets, reportedly to perform aerial stunts. The car uses rear-wheel drive and Tesla's own 4680 battery cells with what the company calls a special chemistry, and Elon Musk claimed a planned top speed of 383 mph and a 0-60 mph time of 0.8 seconds.
