Guest have been pouring into Warner Bros. Studio lot in anticipation of Elon Musk’s big day. The parking garage is crammed with Cybertrucks. The crowd appears to be mostly men. And the event appears to be quite extensive, complete with its own map to all the locations. Now, we wait for Elon, who’s supposed to take the stage at 7PM PT (though he has a reputation for lateness).
The Tesla CEO has long promised — and failed to deliver — a fully autonomous vehicle. With this week’s robotaxi reveal, his time is up.
Bloomberg reports that the soon-to-be-unveiled purpose-built driverless vehicle will have “two front seats and two doors that open upward like butterfly wings,” citing sources familiar. That would square with the concept art we saw in Walter Isaacson’s Elon Musk biography. Tesla could also announce an autonomous van, and Full Self-Driving capabilities for its Semi trucks.
Twenty Trucks videos are a hit in my house. My vehicle-obsessed toddler loves the truck footage, and I find the songs infinitely more listenable than whatever Blippi is usually screeching about. The latest Truck Tunes track features the one and only Cybertruck, and honestly, it’s a bop. Take a look for yourself and try not to get it stuck in your head.
