Tesla Unveils Newest Iteration of EV Roadster

Tesla recently released information on its fourth-generation Roadster, called the Roadster 2.5. The model features some cosmetic changes, interior improvements and a larger touch-screen. 

The front clip and rear diffuser have been refreshed, supposedly to resemble stylistic cues on the upcoming Model S. Other exterior changes include new forged wheel designs. 

Under the hood, the 2.5 Roadster gets improved sound-deadening materials and something called “power control hardware” that allows the driver to maintain a vigorous driving style even under severely hot temperatures. 

 Inside, the Roadster gets improved seats that include larger bolsters and a new lumbar system for better comfort. The optional navigation system has been upgraded to a 7-inch screen with a backup camera; last year’s was a tiny in-dash unit. 

The 2.5 Roadster will be available at Tesla stores shortly. If you’re already one of the 1,000-plus owners of a Roadster, you can get many of the new features on your vehicle if you are willing to upgrade, according to Tesla.

Looks like the product is slowing evolving in a mature car. I remember when Top Gear broke the Tesla on their test tracks with 'vigorous' driving. I wondered if a software change would solve that.
