原片標題：New Tesla Roadster: 330mph, Sub-1sec 0-60mph & It Flies! | 4K
原片說明
This is the new Tesla Roadster – and in its ultimate guise, it will fly! There are four versions, from a base Roadster, via a Performance model that produces over 1340hp, to a Thrust version that boasts cold-gas thrusters, up to a limited-edition Rocket iteration that Tesla promises will fly! The performance at that top end of the Roadster family is nuts, with a sub-1sec 0-60mph time (maybe even under 0.59sec!) and a top speed of 330mph!
We spent a couple of hours with this groundbreaking sports car the day before it was unveiled, in the company of Tesla’s Chief Designer, Franz von Holzhausen, and Tesla’s VP of Vehicle Engineering, Lars Moravy. Here’s everything you need to know, including where it borrows tech from SpaceX and Tesla’s Optimus robot.
And note a few figures were updated after our filming finished, hence the *, while the 'base' Roadster specs are currently estimated/TBC.

這台車根本是把「不可能」當成規格表在寫。我看完的第一個反應是：0 到 60 英里不到一秒、極速 330 英里，還跟你說它可以飛？Top Gear 的 Tom Ford 在發表前潛進去，跟特斯拉首席設計師 Franz von Holzhausen 和車輛工程副總 Lars Moravy 聊了兩小時，把這台 Roadster 從底盤、電池、風扇一路講到推進器。聽完你會發現，最瘋的不是數字，是他們真的打算量產。
整支影片最容易被標題誤導的地方在這裡。Franz 和 Lars 講得很清楚，推進器系統叫「off-road use only」，一般道路不能用，而且是一次性充填、給你一發。火箭版確實提到 hover 和丙烷，但 Tom Ford 直接問「你是說這是會飛的車？」，得到的回答是「之後再答」。所以現階段能確定的，是它有一組真的會噴的冷氣體推進器，不是你可以開去上班的飛行車。

底盤與動力：先談重量，再談馬力
Lars 從最看不到的地方講起：雙馬達都在後軸，因為後輪出力才有那種原始的暴力感。車重目標壓在 1700 公斤以下，為此大量用鋁、懸吊件也輕量化。電壓走 800 到 1000 伏特區間，一千瓩、1500 匹。這段資訊密度最高，也最能看出他們不是隻會喊數字，是真的在算重量跟散熱。
車艙比想像中寬敞，Lars 說老闆 193 公分也要坐得進去，座椅本身就是結構、位置設定一次就不再動，省重量。方向盤是 yoke，搭配 steer by wire，沒有機械連線，可變轉向比。Tom Ford 問這台車開起來像車還是像在駕駛噴射機，得到的答案是線性、好開，但全開時會很不一樣。這段是整支影片最像「未來」的地方。
