Tesla Roadster can self-recharge compressed air, recharge time undisclosed
Tesla said its new Roadster can refill its compressed-air tank on its own by collecting and compressing ambient air, but it did not disclose how long recharging takes or how many times it can be used consecutively. The Roadster comes in Performance, Thrust and Rocket versions, with thrusters limited to higher trims. Demonstration specifications included two 600-litre pressure vessels and about 250 kg of compressed air, though it is unclear if that applies to the Thrust model.

Can Tesla\'s \'flying\' Roadster legally run on public roads?
Tesla unveiled a flying version of its Roadster electric sports car, prompting questions about whether it can be driven on public roads. InsideEVs reported Tesla demonstrated the second-generation Roadster\'s flight capabilities at a SpaceX facility near Waco, Texas. The car used an underbody suction fan and cold-gas thrusters. Elon Musk said it would be a road-going car but was unsure it would be legal everywhere. Tesla said the Rocket model lacks public-road approval.
