特斯拉长期延期的Roadster终于登场——它是从坡道上飞起来的。
Tesla’s long-delayed Roadster finally made an entrance — by flying off a ramp.
周四晚间的一场直播活动中，这款跑车沿着弯曲的坡道行驶，直到车身倒立，随后腾空而起，翻转，并落回车轮上，看似得益于车辆下方的推进器。“嗯，它成功了，”埃隆·马斯克在直播中表示。
At a livestreamed event Thursday night, the sports car climbed a curved ramp until it was upside down, launched into the air, flipped, and landed on its wheels, apparently aided by thrusters beneath the vehicle. “Well, it worked,” Elon Musk said during the livestream.
马斯克说，特斯拉和SpaceX的工程师合作研发了这款汽车，该车利用高压空气和推进器将自身从地面抬起。
Musk said Tesla and SpaceX engineers collaborated on the car, which uses high-pressure air and thrusters to lift itself off the ground.
特斯拉还展示了一段录制的演示视频，其中Roadster在0.81秒内加速到每小时60英里。
Tesla also showed a recorded demonstration in which the Roadster reached 60 mph in 0.81 seconds.
尽管此类装置在公共道路上的合法性仍存疑，但科技界正对马斯克的新创作赞叹不已。以下是商业和科技界的主要声音对新款Roadster的评论。
While the legality of such a device on public roads remains in question, the tech world is reacting to Musk's new creation with awe. Here is what the leading voices in business and tech are saying about the new Roadster.
