"Well it worked!" Tesla's next-generation Roadster LIFTS OFF THE GROUND during a jaw-dropping demonstration, offering a glimpse at technology that could change what an electric sports car can do. The experimental vehicle uses a fan-powered suction system and compressed-air thrusters to control its movement and landing. Elon Musk said certain versions of the Roadster can accelerate from zero to 60 mph in less than one second and reach a top speed of more than 230 mph. But don't expect to see this version cruising down the highway anytime soon. The prototype isn't approved for public roads, and Tesla is targeting 2028 for Roadster production.

"OH MY GOD!" Spectators react as a Tesla Roadster soars through the air, flipping above several parked vehicles during an unveiling event in Texas. The dramatic demonstration showcases the car's high-pressure air system, which is said to allow the Roadster to briefly leave the ground. The technology has yet to receive approval for public road use.

Flying cars may be closer than we think. Elon Musk showcases a Tesla Roadster demonstration featuring a "kickflip" through the air over other vehicles in Texas, leaving the crowd in awe as he teases a not-so-distant future where cars could do more than just drive. "This will be an actual car on the roads." Watch the demonstration and see what's next for Tesla's Roadster: foxbusiness.com/technology/t…
