Elon Musk is known for his unusual interviews.

In a new podcast with Joe Rogan, the Tesla boss is now speculating about the possibility of a floating roadster for 2022.

  • Tesla boss Elon Musk is known for his bizarre appearances.

    Just recently, Musk explained in an interview when it is best to buy a Tesla.

  • Two years ago, Musk caused a real scandal when he smoked a joint on Joe Rogan's podcast.

  • Now the Tesla * boss was again at Rogan's guest and spoke about his vision of floating the planned Tesla Roadster.

Palo Alto - Elon Musk's ideas and interviews are notorious.

When combined, they often trigger a tangible scandal.

In 2018, Tesla shares * crashed after an interview with Musk when he relaxed smoking a joint on the "Joe Rogan Experience" podcast.

Two years later, Musk visits Rogan again.

This time the Tesla boss fantasizes about flying roadsters and an electric van with a solar roof.

Elon Musk in an interview with Joe Rogan: Floating roadster possible

Many Tesla shareholders must have been scared when they found out that Elon Musk * has been invited again to the podcast of former MMA fighter Joe Rogan.

The new interview may not make the same waves as the episode two years ago, but this time too, Musk surprises with new visions.

In an interview with Rogan, the Tesla boss explained that the Tesla Roadster planned for 2022 should be able to float.

“We're going to bring rocket technology into this fantastic electric car.

I definitely want the Tesla Roadster to float.

And believe me, we'll find out how to make this thing float - without killing people, ”announced Elon Musk.

“I think we can make it float - but not too high.

Maybe a meter or so ”.

There will also be a SpaceX * package for the roadster.

“The standard version will have a back row with two small seats, like child seats in a Porsche or something.

If you choose the SpaceX option package, instead of the two seats you get a carbon-coated high-pressure pressure vessel with around 700 bar and a number of engines, ”explained the Tesla boss.

Instead of the two rear seats, the roadster is to have ten rocket engines, which should have a significant impact on steering, acceleration, speed and braking.

The roadster has long been known as the new spearhead of the electric car pioneer.

With an acceleration from zero to 100 km / h in 1.9 seconds, a maximum range of 1,000 kilometers and speeds of over 400 km / h, the roadster should set new standards.

The new Tesla Roadster was announced for 2022 and should cost around 200,000 euros.

Elon Musk shares the first details of how a Tesla van could look

In addition to the surprising announcement of the roadster, Musk also speculated about what a possible Tesla van might look like.

"For a van, solar power might make a little more sense because of the large, flat area," Musk said.

The Tesla boss was particularly enthusiastic about the possibility of self-sufficiency.

“I think that would be great.

A van that you can still drive around in even after an apocalypse. ”It remains to be seen whether this idea will actually be implemented.

It is foreseeable, however, that sooner or later a Tesla van will appear after this renewed announcement.

Musk confirmed this assumption at a teleconference following the podcast.

“I think Tesla will definitely build an electric van later”.

However, given the possibility of a floating roadster next year, the announcement of a future Tesla van shouldn't come as too much of a surprise.
