SURREY, B.C. – Tesla has finally revealed the production-spec Roadster, nine years after the concept was first shown, with the debut event held October 15 in Waco, Texas.The second-generation Roadster was originally promised with a 1.9-second 0-60 mph time, a top speed over 250 mph, and a claimed 620-mile range. Original pricing was set at $200,000 for the base model and $250,000 for the Founders Series, with a $50,000 deposit required.Tesla has teased a SpaceX option package with cold gas thrusters that could push performance even further, though final production specs are still to be confirmed.For Surrey drivers, Tesla has a strong local presence.

The centre is open Monday to Friday 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Call (778) 900-1412.Surrey is also known as the unofficial Supercharger capital of Canada, with five Supercharger stations and 68 stalls across the city, making it one of the best-equipped cities in the country for Tesla owners.While the Roadster is a low-volume halo car aimed at collectors and enthusiasts rather than daily drivers, its technology often filters down to mainstream models like the Model 3 and Model Y that are popular with Surrey commuters.Where to learn more:- Tesla Surrey: 19505 Langley Bypass, Surrey, BC – https://www.tesla.com/en_ae/findus/location/service/surrey19505- Tesla Roadster page: https://www.tesla.com/roadster
