00:00Overnight, Tesla unveiling a car that would be unlike anything else on the road or in the air.
00:12Elon Musk demonstrating the new Tesla Roadster at a SpaceX rocket test site in Texas.
00:17He says it flies on compressed air, the same technology that steers rockets.
00:23And it's got rocket-like speed, too.
00:25Tesla showing off the car's ability to go from zero to 60 in just one second.
00:32And for grip at high speed, Tesla claims fans in the bottom of the car can suck it to the
00:38pavement, allowing it to drive upside down.
00:45There are three versions.
00:47The road car seats two and costs $50,000 to reserve.
00:50The thrust version adds the rear thrusters and costs $250,000 to reserve.
00:56The one that flies seats just one person and is not allowed on public roads.
01:01Tesla says that one will be available to customers by invite only.
01:04Musk did not say what the final prices will be.
01:07There is skepticism surrounding the announcement.
01:10Tesla, back in 2017, announced it was building a Roadster and took $50,000 deposits.
01:16But the car was never delivered.
01:18This time, Musk promises production will start in 2028.
01:22Actually.
01:23Actually.
01:24For real.
01:26Musk says the next stunt may be to jump the Snake River Canyon.
01:30The jump, Evel Knievel, failed in 1974.
