Tesla Roadster

Collection of Roadster Tips

Visit our YouTube Channel

The Tesla Roadster is an iconic little two seater sports car originally slated to be a Lotus Elise conversion to EV by Tesla.
A number of miscalculations turned the car into a custom vehicle, with only 7% of it still Lotus.  Fortunately, Tesla recreated body panels, and made frame modification preserving the original look and feel of the sporty Lotus Elise.

This is a collection of tips, gathered from years of Roadster Newsletters.

We are always available either by phone, 800 658-5883 Extension 500, or email ev@gruber.com, for free tech support.
As always, our goal is to support the Roadster community. We believe in transparency, and are committed to vehicle owner education.

TIP – Charging settings to avoid

In Storage Mode setting, the vehicle will ‘wake up’ every 24 hours and if necessary, restart charging to top-up the battery charge level to a reduced rate, about 20% charge. The problem is that the vehicle’s cells, charged to a reduced level have little margin for error. In case of an unattended power failure, many Roadsters have been bricked in this state since the time from reduced full State of Charge (SOC) to zero is very brief.
