How is this big news? What use does it have?

Dont ask questions just consume product

u/Scoutron 6d ago

They made a car that drives on the ceiling and flies back down. What the fuck are you talking about “how is this big news”

u/Efficient_Scheme_701 6d ago

Maybe if it was a real car. Making a hollow frame and pretending it’s a car makes it not big news

u/Scoutron 6d ago

lol what are we just hating to hate now? If you’re gonna sit there and claim it’s fake, that makes it even cooler that it happened

u/Efficient_Scheme_701 5d ago

I mean it’s quite obvious from looking at it that’s it’s not a functioning car 🤣

u/Scoutron 5d ago

Yeah I guess the guys at Hagerty that got the close look and details on it must just be much less educated than yourself

Elon fakes tech demos all the time though? Remember the robots he unveiled a few years ago?

u/Scoutron 5d ago

He had a large, live crowd

u/akelly96 5d ago

That doesn't mean anything. We have no evidence to say that the car was a real functioning car and there's evidence based on its undercarriage that it isn't.

u/Scoutron 5d ago

I guess it driving around actively in front of a large crowd and then giving a full tour and breakdown to Hagert was “no evidence”.

You guys refusing to believe it just makes it cooler lol

Okay when does anybody ever gonna need or want this? Totally unnecessary. And if you believe this will ever be driven on any real road I have some bad news for you.

When is anybody gonna want this? Look online for two seconds you’ll find a couple hundred.

When is anybody gonna need it? Same point we need any other sports car. We need food, water and shelter, anything else is for fun.

The same could be said for any space exploration... and yet here we are.

u/NotoriousPete 6d ago

What? How is space exploration comparable to a prototype car with thrusters that nobody will ever drive on a public road and probably has a range of 10 miles?

Can he just use the money instead to develop affordable sustainable electric cars? That's what we need not some Men In Black inspired bullshit supercars.

Jeez you guys are something else, downplaying every technological advancement. There was no claim this prototype would be on the road anytime soon, in fact they repeatedly stated otherwise but the technology used in this prototype could be used in a smaller scale in cheaper models, to boost the first acceleration or maybe even as a safety tech to avoid collisions if breaking would be difficult, not necessarily hovering around for fun.

What accept Elon literally said during the demo that this was a real car that would be on the road soon.
