Tesla to Unveil Next-Gen Roadster with SpaceX Thrusters, Sparks Investor Interest
September 12, 2026
Tesla has teased an October 1 reveal for the new Roadster with a SpaceX-inspired 'Go for launch' motif, hinting at a hover/demonstration using thrusters developed with SpaceX technology.
Since the project began in 2017, the Roadster has evolved from a traditional high-performance EV into a carbon-fiber hypercar, with deliveries originally expected in 2020 but multiple delays since.
Even after the reveal, Elon Musk has signaled that production would not begin for another 12 to 18 months, keeping expectations for mass-market timing uncertain.
The event is framed as a sentiment catalyst rather than a revenue milestone, as investors look for production-ready details and a credible path to delivery.
Street credibility among insiders shows 16 gurus hold Tesla stock, with 10 adding to holdings and 8 trimming, while insiders sold about $938,000 in the past three months.
Executives’ selling activity totals roughly $938,409 in the last three months, signaling cautious sentiment despite a relatively positive guru ownership backdrop.
Several Starlink-associated data points are flagged as high-probability or moderate risk, and some upstream data entries require cautious interpretation.
The stock alert is generated via automated technology and includes disclosures about potential owner positions in mentioned companies.
GuruFocus estimates Tesla’s current price around $365, suggesting the stock is overvalued relative to its GF Value of about $334, though the GF Score and growth prospects remain compelling.
Despite potential overvaluation signals, the article highlights Tesla’s continued growth trajectory and the strategic appeal of software and robotics alongside hardware ambitions.
Tesla’s sky-high P/E ratio, well above its five-year median, contributes to concerns about the premium nature of the stock, even as enthusiasm for its long-term roadmap persists.
