2011 Tesla Roadster 2.5 Complete Preview with Pictures

With Tesla introducing two new stores in Denmark and California, the electric sports car manufacturer has also lifted the covers on their fourth edition of its Roadster. Named the Roadster 2.5, it gets treated to a restyling on the front and the rear.

Out the front sits a redesigned grille, while out the back a new rear bumper encapsulates diffuser. On the inside the interior has been reshaped and the addition of a seven-inch touch screen display works in conjunction with the reverse camera.

Developed using feedback from current Tesla customers, the Roadster 2.5 comes with a new front fascia, rear diffuser, improved seat comfort and interior details, increased sound dampening and a new 7 inch touchscreen navigation system with reversing camera. The final touch is a set of forged alloy wheels in either silver or black.

No major changes were made to the drivetrain, which means its AC induction motor should be pushing 288 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque--enough for a 3.7 second 0-60 mph time. With a mix of spirited and normal driving, the Roadster should be able to carry you a distance of 245 miles on a single charge, which takes about 3.5 hours from empty to full using the Tesla Home Connector at 240 Volts and 70 Amps.

As far as the exterior design goes, the 2011 Tesla Roadster 2.5 comes with a new front fascia including new diffusing vents, a new rear diffuser and directional forged wheels that will be available in both silver and black. The interior of the 2011 Tesla Roadster 2.5 offers improved seat comfort and internal finishes, sound dampening and a large touchscreen navigation system.
