On this day in 2008, Tesla, Inc. officially began regular production of its first car, the Tesla Roadster, marking a significant milestone in the evolution of electric vehicles. The Roadster not only demonstrated that EVs could deliver strong performance but also helped reshape global perceptions around sustainable mobility. In an unusual twist to its legacy, one Tesla Roadster was launched into space during the Falcon Heavy test flight and now travels in an elliptical heliocentric orbit, even crossing the path of Mars—making it one of the most extraordinary automotive stories ever recorded. 🚀
