Many were skeptical when they heard the 620-plus-miles-per-day number or the 1.0 range the first time, but the companys CEO,
Elon Musk, repeated the figure a few times, and it became an official estimated range number for the Tesla Roadster.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk boasted a 1.9-second 0-60-mph time and a top speed of 250 miles per hour back in 2017,
when the Roadster concept was unveiled - figures we are all eagerly hoping will prove to be accurate when the original Tesla Roadster eventually arrives.
Even better, Teslas 2022 Roadster is expected to pack a 200-kWh battery, double that of the Tesla Model S P100D,
And deliver 621 miles (1,000 kilometers) on a single charge at highway speeds.
According to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Tesla Roadster is capable of traveling 393 km (244 miles) on one charge from its lithium-ion battery pack,
And accelerating from 0-97 km/h (0-60 mph) in 3.7 or 3.9 seconds, depending on model.
The Tesla Roadster second-generation 2020 is capable of speeds in excess of 250 miles per hour,
With a battery pack that has a driving range of 620 miles three times that of the companys initial range.
