A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
He built a wannabe K.I.T.T., I mean the jumping, no talking luckily. Also as fake as K.I.T.T. Its only purpose was to push the stock, like always and to do anything but a compact, cost efficient EV for the masses.
No talking? All the new cars have Grok built in unfortunately. They do, in fact, talk.
“Set the cabin temperature to 72 degrees.”
Car: “The holocaust didn’t happen”
I doubt that flying thing had much inside other than what was strictly required for that stunt.
It is, in fact, not a car. It's a stunt vehicle that was disguised as a car.
Yeah, and I'm sure the production model in 2028 (or much, much later, knowing Elon), will be a slimmed down shadow of this thing. I'd feel bad for the sorry saps that fall for it, but they've clearly learned nothing over the past decade.
Now I seriously wonder what voice it talks in. Just the standard, bland stuff?
Or like Hal 9000 maybe? I'm not sure the K.I.T.T.s voice was all that memorable.
I hate to admit it, but I think I would actually like some very Elony choices. Unless he's removed all vestiges of being a hapless nerd and only thinks in ragebait nazi anymore.
Not that I ever wanted one of his, or in fact any talking car.

It honestly seems decently useful while driving to avoid interacting with any physical (or touchscreen...) controls, but it would be much cooler if it wasn't in a Tesla and wasn't ~~MechaHitler~~ Grok*
Have you looked at the price of a model 3 lately? They're about the price of a moderately equipped Civic... You're not wrong about the stock thing though
In Europe the model 3 costs double if what an entry level EVs cost. Sure, they have less range and stuff but that's what I was talking about, some affordable entry level car that delivers the basics and not more.
