Overview
- Altman posted screenshots on X showing a July 2018 Tesla Roadster reservation and a new request to cancel and obtain a refund.
- The confirmation email reflected a $45,000 deposit, his refund request asked for $50,000, and the reservations@tesla.com address returned an undeliverable notice.
- Tesla and Elon Musk have not publicly responded to Altman’s post or to requests for comment, according to the latest reports.
- The Roadster was unveiled in 2017 with production once slated for 2020 and still has no confirmed delivery timeline after repeated delays.
- Recent coverage notes a Roadster-related Tesla job listing and the chief designer’s comment about a possible unveil later this year, which remains unconfirmed.
