Listen to the news

The Zhitong Finance App learned that on Friday, Tesla (TSLA.US) opened up more than 2% and is now reported at $367.57. According to the news, Musk's “flying sports car” finally debuted after 9 years of ticket skipping. On Thursday, at the SpaceX rocket test site in McGregor, Texas, along with thick fog, red lasers, and the main stage surrounded by self-media creators, a grand event like an outdoor concert kicked off — Tesla's second-generation sports car Roadster, and finally ushered in its “rebirth”. Musk reiterated that this will be Tesla's only model that will retain manual driving features for a long time. According to the current plan, mass production is scheduled for 2028.

For investors, the commercial value of this car cannot be ignored. Battle Road Research, an independent research agency, estimated in Thursday's research report that if Roadster sells 7,000 vehicles in the first year of production, at an average price of 280,000 US dollars, it will bring Tesla nearly 2 billion US dollars in annualized revenue and increase the market's expected 2027 revenue by about 2%, which is “quite impressive.”
