No. Shit.
That entire underside of the floor with the suction drops down to create a vacuum. F1 had this shit in like 1980 bro, don’t think it’s a parlor trick.
Nahhhh really?? No wayyyy
***NO SHIT***
Is this the level of “conspiracy” that this sub has sunken to?
Bro figured out that water is wet
Obviously something other than the jets were keeping it pinned to that ramp.
I don’t think any consumers think this car is built to drive on upside down roads.
make it play rocket league irl then well know
Cancelled my order. Thanks for pointing this out
Yeah I think everybody knows that. How else its supposed to drive up that wall?
Why couldn’t it fly from the ground? As it can’t fly.
Whiplash
The physics of cold thrusters allows this car to elevate for about 5 seconds. No joke. You are not getting a flying car anytime soon.
… meanwhile, nobody can even afford a non-flying car
If you didn’t see it with your own eyes it never happened.
Likely a composite car with most stuff removed to keep the weight down. Weight is the enemy.
It’s basically a pyramid loan scheme for him. Advertise them for sale with a deposit of half a million. He gets that and spends it on whatever he’s got coming up- At zero risk for him, interest free. When whatever has worked out, he refunds the money in a year or two. If it doesn’t work out and the money is lost- no matter, he just tells people there been a delay and that they’ll just have to wait. If in a few years he gets the money he’ll refund them. If not they can just wait. It’s actually pretty slick.
I’m pretty sure that thing in the red circle is the fan mechanism that was holding it to the surface. So it’s kinda like showing a plane flying through the air, and circling the wings like “See? The plane wouldn’t be able to fly without these things”
yeah they did it in the dark for a reason
It’s a stunt, of course it’s not the regular car lol
Nooooo…he sent a car too space…theres a red tesla or some shit floating around with some dude in it….FOR REAL! Theres a vid! its a whole thing…hes got a car driving aroind space…🤣🤣🤣
Do u really think it would be safe for society if the average person would be allowed to driv3 flying cars?
It certainly didn’t had batteries
Really? You think Elon wanted people to believe the production car is going to be doing rocket propelled flips on the highway.
Top Gear went over the car before the promo. Dunno what to tell you but they showed how to fit all of those systems in the car. Whether or not it gets produced in any/meaningful amount is another story, but the car is capable.

Anything to take away from the amazing feat of engineering this was
powered by farts
Lol.
I’ve been saying it’s a custom one off since day one!
But what practical use does this have? This just screams ‘muricah
Of course it was a prop car
Duh.
It was a plublicity stunt to get into all the new orgs cycles for free advertising.
