New Roadster unveil probably in late April,” he said in the post. > True. > > New Roadster unveil probably in late April. https://t.co/NShZxpK5cI > > — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) March 17, 2026 ## Tesla’s Roadster Tesla most recently filed multiple trademark applications with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). The filings describe a wordmark “Roadster” in a stylized format, as well as “a triangle design consisting of three flowing, curved lines.” Musk also detailed that the Roadster would be a performance-focused vehicle. “If safety is your number one goal, don’t buy the Roadster,” Musk said, promising a “cool” demo for the vehicle. ## Roadster’s Hovering Patent, Cybercab Gets NHTSA Boost Interestingly, Tesla had filed a patent detailing an active aerodynamic system that directs airflow through a series of fans to generate downforce. The filing also mentioned that the system could possibly make the car hover. Elsewhere, Musk’s $30,000 Cybercab could also be set to receive a major boost, as NHTSA has proposed amendments to the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS), which would remove the need for a gear position indicator. According to Benzinga Edge Rankings, Tesla scores well on the Momentum metric and also offers a favorable price trend in the Long term. **Price Action**: TSLA declined 0.03% to $395.45 during overnight trading on Tuesday. _Check out more of Benzinga's Future Of Mobility coverage by_ following this link. _Photo courtesy: Shutterstock_ ### Related Stocks - [GraniteShares 1.25x Long Tsla Daily ETF (TSL.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSL.US.md) - [T-REX 2X Inverse Tesla Daily Target ETF (TSLZ.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSLZ.US.md) - [T-REX 2X Long Tesla Daily Target ETF (TSLT.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSLT.US.md) - [Leverage Shares 2X Long TSLA Daily ETF (TSLG.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSLG.US.md) - [Tradr 2X Short TSLA Daily ETF (TSLQ.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSLQ.US.md) - [Direxion Daily TSLA Bull 2X Shares (TSLL.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSLL.US.md) - [Direxion Daily TSLA Bear 1X Shares (TSLS.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSLS.US.md) - [Tesla, Inc.
