Tesla Roadster Sport – fresh photos

Tesla has released new images of the Tesla Roadster Sport as the order book opens

But despite the hype on the Tesla Model S earlier in the year, the next model to arrive will be the Tesla Roadster Sport – a beefed up version of the current Roadster. And Tesla are ramping up the awareness by releasing the new pictures you see here.

The Roadster Sport gets 15% more peak power that the standard Roadster, which should propel the little Roadster to 60 mph in around 3.7 seconds, which is no mean feat, despite the Roadster’s dinky dimensions. Also tweaked are the suspension and new tyres.

Tesla has also announced that it is taking new orders for the Roadster Sport from today, which means a call to Tesla London for those of you in the UK. Tesla say the new Roadster Sport will be priced at €112,000 Euros + vat. Which translates to around £110,000 on the road.

Which is an awful lot of money for a Lotus with a beefed up washing machine motor.
