I got to the
FP post about the new Tesla Roadster
too late for anyone to see
this comment
, but I feel compelled to point out that a car with a removable center roof panel and a fixed back half of the roof is not a roadster. It’s a targa.

The first one was a targa too.

Well, a roadster isn’t supposed to have any roof at all. Also, the roadster part of the name is the model of the car.

The original definition of roadster like pre-WWII was that but basically from the 50s on up most roadsters have been 2-seat convertibles.

Yeah, roadsters are two-seaters, too. I’m a little perplexed by Tesla’s decision to stick an extra pair of seats in this car.

I only saw it after there were 100+ comments. Probably too late to demand an h/t.
