Tesla shows Roadster 'kickflip' over its whole lineup in new POV video

Tesla has released a new point-of-view video of the next-generation Roadster's headline stunt from its 15 October unveiling. Posted on X with the caption "POV you're a flying car," the roughly 30-second clip shows the uncrewed prototype firing its cold-gas thrusters, lifting off and barrel-rolling fully inverted over a lineup of Model 3, Model Y, Cybercab, Cybertruck and Tesla Semi. The video also shows the inverted-ramp demonstration, in which the Roadster's underbody suction-fan system lets it climb and lock itself upside down on the ramp, generating multiple Gs of downforce. Whatever you think of flying cars, nobody else is putting one on camera doing barrel rolls over a whole product line.
