Unveiled in 2006, production started in earnest in 2008, with 10 production cars reaching California by the middle of last year, and 150 by the end of the year. The Roadster is the first Tesla, but unlike many predicted it was not the last. More models arrived in the shape of the Model S, Model X, Model 3 and soon the Model Y. There is also the new Roadster expected in 2020.
