The October 2026 Roadster reveal renewed interest in downloadable Tesla Roadster wrap templates. Tesla’s Roadster design page presents the new car’s aerospace-inspired appearance, but a promotional vehicle image and a Paint Shop UV template serve different purposes.
As of October 19, 2026, Tesla’s official custom-wraps repository has no Roadster vehicle folder. You can create a Roadster-inspired design for a supported Tesla today, but a concept Roadster texture should not be treated as an official, vehicle-ready Paint Shop file.
Tesla's Official Custom-Wraps Repository Currently Covers 12 Vehicle Variants
Tesla maintains its official touchscreen wrap templates in the public teslamotors/custom-wraps GitHub repository. Each vehicle folder provides a template for that variant’s 3D vehicle visualization.
| Repository Folder Name | Supported Vehicle & Trim | Template Resolution | Paint Shop Upload Compatibility |

As checked on October 19, 2026, the official custom-wraps repository contains no roadster or roadster-2026 vehicle directory. A Roadster reveal or a third-party concept preview does not establish Paint Shop upload support.
Tesla's Separate teslamotors/roadster GitHub Repo Is for the 2008–2012 First-Gen Vehicle
When searching GitHub for Roadster files, many owners and designers stumble across teslamotors/roadster. That repository has nothing to do with Tesla Paint Shop or the 2026 second-generation Roadster:
- Contents Are Diagnostic & CAN Bus Files: The teslamotors/roadster repository contains development and diagnostic software plus CAN database (
.dbc) files for the original 2008–2012 Lotus-based Tesla Roadster . - No 3D Mesh or UV Map Exists Inside: It does not include a
.glb/.gltfdisplay model or a 1024×1024 Paint Shop PNG template. - Renaming Another Vehicle's PNG Will Not Work: Every Tesla Paint Shop template maps specific pixel coordinates to that exact vehicle's fenders, doors, bumpers, and hood (Tesla Roadster design overview). Renaming a
model3-2024-performancePNG toroadster.pngsimply leaves the artwork mapped to Model 3 panel seams.
How to Experience and Use 2026 Roadster Wrap Designs Today
While we wait for Tesla to release an official Roadster UV layout closer to its Roadster engineering interview, you have two practical ways to design and use Roadster wraps right now:
- Create a Roadster-inspired design for a supported Tesla: Choose your exact model and trim in Tesla Wrap Lab, then build an Ano White, gold-accent or aerospace-themed design on that vehicle's official template. These are design ideas to recreate, rather than a downloadable Roadster preset collection. Export the result for the vehicle you actually selected.
- Treat Roadster concept previews as design studies: A third-party Roadster mesh can help explore a palette, but its UV map is not an official Paint Shop template. Tesla Wrap Lab currently previews the supported Tesla models; it does not provide a Roadster-specific editor or official Roadster PNG download.
Frequently Asked Questions: Tesla Roadster Wrap Templates
Is there an official Tesla Roadster wrap template download?
No. As of October 2026, teslamotors/custom-wraps includes 12 folders for Model 3, Model Y, Model S, Model X, and Cybertruck, with no entry for the 2026 Roadster. Any Roadster template available online today is a third-party concept UV layout designed for web 3D previews rather than in-car Paint Shop installation.
Can I upload a Roadster wrap to my Model 3, Model Y, or Cybertruck?
You cannot upload a Roadster 3D model to another car, and you should never upload a PNG formatted for a concept Roadster UV map onto a Model 3 or Model Y, as the panel coordinates will misalign. Instead, create a Roadster-inspired wrap formatted for your exact vehicle variant in Tesla Wrap Lab and upload it via the Tesla mobile app (v4.59.0+, under Creations → Wrap → Upload) or a USB drive (Wraps folder).
What are Tesla's official Paint Shop file requirements?
According to Tesla's official custom-wraps documentation, all custom wrap files must be saved in PNG format, sized between 512×512 and 1024×1024 pixels (matching the official template resolution), weigh no more than 1 MB, and use only alphanumeric characters, underscores, dashes, and spaces (maximum 30 characters).
Use the exact template proportions: Cybertruck exports at 1024×768, while the other currently supported templates use 1024×1024. See our PNG template guide and upload guide for the complete preparation details.
