Tesla’s chief designer smashed the vehicle’s windows in an attempt to demonstrate their toughness

If so, then for Elon Musk it would be the thonk of a metal ball splintering the purportedly unbreakable glass of his long-awaited cybertruck.

JCOviedo6 Stay tuned

He actually demonstrates how to react to failures. Take the positive, learn and move on.

This is the lamest click bait headline. It's neither a 'plunge' or a 'fiasco'. Please try harder; your my last hope for a decent news outlet.

Guardian, why do you hate this man who has put everything on the line to change humanity’s course for the better? Almost everything you do is good investigative journalism, but your clickbait and vengeance against his missions reeks of bitterness. Enough with the false narrative

Brilliant.

..is that at madam tussaud's?...

The first rule of ‘sales’ is it needs to say what it does on the tin. The truck looks futuristic and if it’s supposed to be bullet proof it should be at launch. Testing is important. Are we at the end of days? No one wants the robots to be in control. environment protected.

While this is quite funny, the rest of us are probably wondering what it's like to have a wallet that can take that kind of a hit...

But that glass was supposed to shatter like that, in order to more smoothly distribute incoming impact, which is the basis for bulletproof effect The irony is that glass worked perfectly, it's just that demonstration was misleading

Are we still giving government subsidies to his company

I'll finance a cybertruck but honestly 'plunges' 😂😂😂 leave it out

500 mile range for 69$ car, stainless steel body with resistance of 9mm bullet, pressurized cabin and 50cm. Clearance. 0-60 mph in 2.9 sec. And 14.000lbs towing capacity is not fiasco! It's winner 🥇

Reveals he has a time machine to go back and rethink that decision.

I’m sure he’ll get by

The schadenfreude here is palpable

And you want to trust him With AMERICAN ASTRONAUTS after the capsule blew up once

Guardian. Somebody else musk have needed that money. You see musk(must) they kind of sound similar. Yeah

Think it's that bad, huh?

Its all a stunt ... hell het it all back when he releases the real model

The sad thing is the glass did what its supposed to do, its that he and the journalists do not understand the nature of ballistic glass its desingned to shatter in that way.

I know how he feels. I bought groceries today and my net worth took a serious dip.

paguenlosTC20

i could’ve spent in better

He's fine, Boomers still think he's genius.

Easy come easy go.

How Much is 20 billion?

It plunged $768m twice in one day? Elon Musk's net worth plunges $768m in a day after cybertruck fiasco Elon Musk's net worth plunges $768m in a day after cybertruck fiasco

The absolute genius it takes to convince an audience a run of the mill window is shatterproof before smashing it like an imbecile, instead of admitting criminal culpability for that whole Bolivia thing...

😀😀😂😂😂

Glass break was lame tone for reveal, but I still reserved one and I’ve never bought a new vehicle before. That thing looks sick. Looks like I get some more Tesla stock purchases at a discount. 👍

Peanuts

Pocket change for him. But it does show that money can’t buy you respect, or intelligence.

Why not build it to look like a truck? People inclined to drive trucks aren’t going to like snowflake designs.

Oops. Guess someone did not mention this was the demo model and not the lab test model. Then again on armored vehicles the same would happens just not through the glass. Conventional windows would scatter into blocks instead making a opening throwing people out in a roll.

LitAnscombe So that's roughly 300,000 times my net worth and I want to scream

Mr Musk obviously believes in pyramid power. I quite like the shape, in a Mad Max dystopian way. If only these vehicles could self generate power like a pyramid can.

It's going to be tough for Elon...He's just going to have try to make it with only $23+billion...

Looks like the Cybertruck can only withstand a 'software' attack!

Tesla X was shopisticated in an engine battery but nothing on design, Solidegosse would buy a car only for party but business, so a van as my car choice.

So, what your saying is, eat the rich.

The lithium in Bolivia is a democratic resource of the people of Bolivia. Musk and his corporate goons are attempting to pillage democratic natural resources for their oligarchical, fascistic world order.

Here's the kicker: He just lost more in one day than you & untold generations of your family *combined* will ever earn and he is still richer than you & your descendants combined will ever be.

Zzzzz $768M in ElonMusk world is akin to you, or I,buying a $20 dollar lottery ticket that didn’t pay off

Just like the the Democrats impeachment inquiry, DISASTER!

So barely at all

Down with the oligarchs!
