Hidden joke in Tesla Cybertruck embarrasses Elon Musk
Elon Musk doesn’t take himself too seriously. This is evident from this hidden joke in the Tesla Cybertruck that Musk uses to make fun of himself.
The CEO has a strange sense of humor. For example, the brand’s electric vehicles have a whoopee cushion mode. Childish and unprofessional for some, a fun addition for others.
Embarrassing Tesla Cybertruck presentation
In any case, there was a lot of laughter when the Tesla Cybertruck was unveiled in 2019. During a demonstration of the armored glass, chief designer Franz von Holzhausen threw a metal ball against the front side window. The window broke, creating an awkward situation for him and Elon Musk.
Things became even more embarrassing when Von Holzhausen tried again on the rear side window and it also suffered a large crack. If it had all been a publicity stunt, it would have been a brilliant idea. After all, we’re still talking about it.
Self-irony from Elon Musk
This time because the CEO refers to this embarrassing moment with a joke in the Tesla Cybertruck. A Cybertruck is shown on the pickup’s infotainment screen. Owners have found that the virtual window shatters if you tap on it very hard. An audio fragment is played from the unveiling five years ago.
Of course, we already knew that Elon Musk likes jokes. For example, the Model S, Model 3, Model X, and Model Y form the acrostic S3XY, which can be read as “sexy.” If you take the Tesla Cybertruck, Quad (also called ATV), Roadster and Semi, it even says S3XY CARS.
“Stop destroying!”
The pick-up is the most robust model in the range. Elon Musk and Franz von Holzhausen tried to make this clear with the failed window test. More stunts later appeared to underline the robustness of the Tesla Cybertruck. Unfortunately, owners are now very rude to their electric vehicles, which is why Tesla is urging them to stop.
