Tesla has introduced its new-generation Roadster in Thailand, featuring SpaceX-derived propulsion technology, with pre-orders now available for 178,000 THB.

According to a report by Prachachat Business, Tesla has officially unveiled its new-generation Roadster, which incorporates advanced engineering from SpaceX. The vehicle is notable for its unique propulsion system, which includes a mechanism to generate downward suction and thrusters, allowing the car to hover and rotate in mid-air under specific conditions.

For residents and enthusiasts in Thailand, the company has opened the pre-order process today, with a reservation fee set at 178,000 THB. The technology behind this model was reportedly tested at the SpaceX facility in McGregor, Texas, USA.

For those living in or visiting Thailand, this development represents a significant shift in automotive technology, potentially introducing 'flying' vehicle capabilities to the local market. However, several details remain to be confirmed, including the final retail price of the vehicle, the specific regulatory framework for operating such a vehicle on Thai roads, and the official delivery timeline for the Thai market. Prospective buyers should monitor official Tesla communications for updates regarding local availability and legal requirements for operating this advanced model.
