ROADSTER
Roadster, an interactive concept.
Interactive concept · 01/09

Every iconbegins as a line.

02 · Form

One geometry.Sketch to surface.

The lines you just watched being drawn are extracted from the same 3D model that now resolves into paint, glass and light, so every stroke lands exactly on the car.

Tesla claims from the 15 Oct 2026 reveal (production planned for 2028). The 0.81 s run was a driverless demonstration run with cold-gas thrusters engaged and was not independently timed. Trims: Performance < 1.6 s · Thrust < 0.9 s · Rocket < 0.59 s.

Inverted ramp

Fan-generated suction holds the car to a curved ramp until it is upside down. Cold-gas thrusters fire, it flips and lands on four wheels.

Roadster, an interactive concept

Concept design & development by Philip Ojo Oladeji. A cinematic product website, a booking and payments platform and a separate admin dashboard, designed and built end to end.

01 Cinematic experience

  • One scroll-driven master timeline (GSAP ScrollTrigger) choreographs nine scenes, from the white drawing sheet to the smoke finale.
  • Lenis smooth scrolling, scrubbed to the timeline, with reduced-motion support throughout.
  • Real-time 3D in WebGL with Three.js, React Three Fiber and Drei.
  • Custom GLSL shaders: a pen-on-paper line-art drawing, an X-ray anatomy view, fBm volumetric smoke, a baked contact shadow and a studio paint material.
  • Wireframe-to-photoreal reveal, camera choreography, a multi-viewport showcase and physically staged stunts (flip, inverted ramp, thruster hop).

02 3D model & assets

  • Model: procedural concept geometry generated in code for this project.
  • Optimised with glTF-Transform: welded, simplified, Meshopt-compressed geometry and WebP textures.
  • Line art, X-ray internals, lighting, shadows and smoke are generated procedurally at runtime.
  • Gallery images are studio renders of the same model.
  • Typefaces: Michroma, Inter and JetBrains Mono (SIL Open Font License), self-hosted with next/font.

03 Commerce & bookings

  • Reservations for each version, paid in full or in 3, 6 or 12 monthly installments.
  • Private test drives in European cities with live slot availability, per-car pricing and experience upgrades.
  • Checkout add-ons and promo codes; every price is recomputed on the server in US dollars.
  • Payments by Bitcoin, Ethereum or bank transfer: the team issues payment details that expire, with BIP-21 / EIP-681 QR codes and a live countdown.
  • Testnet-only address validation (bech32 checksums), watch-only wallets and no private keys on the server.
  • Meeting-point emails with calendar invites once a test drive is paid (Resend).

04 Admin dashboard

  • A separate Next.js app that talks to the site through a token-protected API.
  • Live alerts for new payment requests (sound, toast, tab badge, desktop notifications).
  • Control over prices, test-drive cities, times and capacity, add-ons, promo codes, wallets and bank accounts.
  • Booking management, payment verification, rescheduling, an email outbox and revenue by stream.

05 Engineering

  • Next.js 16 (App Router), React 19 and TypeScript; server components and route handlers.
  • Data in a JSON store or Supabase (Postgres), switched by configuration.
  • Responsive from phone to desktop, keyboard accessible, with reduced-motion fallbacks.
  • Tested with headless-browser visual captures and end-to-end API checks.

06 Sources & notes

  • Figures and stunts are recreated from coverage of the 15 Oct 2026 Roadster reveal (TechCrunch, Teslarati, Wikipedia). They are manufacturer claims, not independent measurements. Lineup vehicles are simplified stand-ins.
  • Unofficial concept · not affiliated with Tesla, Inc. Tesla and Roadster are trademarks of Tesla, Inc.; no Tesla logos, fonts, imagery or code are used. Payments run on test networks.
