With the clock ticking down to the long-awaited delivery of the Cybertruck on November 30th, Tesla has been running some unconventional last-minute testing ahead of its official release. 🧪🤖
A prototype was recently spotted on the highway with a little more texture than usual after apparently being used for target practice.
Elon confirmed on X that the Tesla successfully repelled an entire round from a Tommy gun:
Shots fired. Critics are already calling this out as just another one of Musk’s publicity stunts, quickly noting that the car's windows were conspicuously lacking any testing damage (reminding us of this teensy demonstration snafu), and questioning if the Cybertruck could withstand higher caliber weaponry and ammunition. 🔫
We’re willing to test this out. Raise your hand if you’re willing to sacrifice your new Cybertruck to some (potentially damaging) third-party testing. Thanks in advance! 🎯
