HISTORICAL FACTS: Tesla reopens roadster reservations with a 50 000 deposit - The Untold Story

  • Tesla reopened Roadster reservations, requiring a $50,000 commitment to hold a place in line.
  • Tesla will reveal the Roadster on October 1 at SpaceX's McGregor rocket test site in Waco, Texas.
  • Original depositors who paid in November 2017 have waited nearly nine years.

Tesla put the Roadster reservation page back online this month, and it wants the same amount it asked for the first time. Buyers now need $50,000 to hold a place in line, split into a $5,000 credit card charge and a $45,000 wire transfer, with a Waco, Texas reveal set for October 1.
