Tesla shares a clip that gives fans a glimpse of the new Roadster’s interior. The clip shows the supercar’s dashboard, inspired by fighter-jet cockpits.
Many fans impressed by Tesla’s flying car demo wonder what the interior looks like. The automaker has released a video on X showing the new Roadster’s dashboard. It also offers a sneak preview of the car’s features and functions.

Like the rest of Tesla’s vehicle lineup, the Roadster has a large, landscape-oriented central display that lets owners access various settings and infotainment. However, that is where the similarity ends, because Tesla claims the interface is inspired by fighter jets’ cockpits.
Roadster drivers will be greeted by their vehicle’s 3D model, and touching any part opens up different settings. Perhaps the most anticipated setting is Track Mode. Under it, the screen displays a live circuit map and lap completion times, a nod to the car’s inevitable use on racetracks.
Other information includes telemetry such as brake and motor temperatures, and each tyre’s pressure and temperature readings.
More geeky fans might be drawn first to the status bar running across the bottom of the screen. It includes “Thruster · 5,500 PSI” and “Booster Ready” indicators, both connected to the cold-gas thrusters, one of the car’s most talked-about features.
Another section allows the driver to set the aerodynamic mode to Low Drag, High Downforce, or Custom. Selecting Auto lets the car determine which mode to activate.
The interface also lets you manually adjust the aero balance (the distribution of aerodynamic downforce between the front and rear), brake balance, stability, and traction. These systems determine how aggressively the Roadster’s electronic system intervenes during acceleration and cornering.
The Roadster will enter production in 2028, and Tesla may change the interface shown in this video. The company states a 0-60 mph acceleration time of 0.59 seconds for the fastest version. Customers can reserve the Roadster on Tesla’s website with a $50,000 down payment.
Tesla will display the Roadster at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Texas from October 24 to 27.
