Tesla owners are getting creative in protecting their cars from potential vandalism and backlash from Elon Musk‘s antics by slapping new logos on their vehicles.
They are rebranding their Teslas with stickers of different car manufacturers.
One notable example sees a Cybertruck being slapped with a huge Toyota badge.
Images of Teslas sporting these new logos, including Audi and Mazda, have been circulating on social media, especially on Musk’s own X platform.
It has left social media users to speculate that owners are using the stickers as a way to avoid negative attention or damage to their vehicles.
One person spotted an Anti-Elon Tesla Club and one owner replaced all the Tesla logos with a Canadian maple leaf.
Other people have added: “I bought this before we knew Elon was crazy,” badges.
Harsh or fair?
Another Tesla owner seemingly hoping to change their car soon.
Tesla stock
US President Donald Trump has said he will “buy a brand new Tesla” after shares in the electric car firm fell more than 15%.
Trump blamed “radical left lunatics” boycotting the firm to “attack and do harm” to Tesla owner Elon Musk.
As part of the sell-off, shares in technology firms dropped, with Tesla stock sinking by 15.4%, while artificial intelligence (AI) chip giant Nvidia, Facebook owner Meta, Amazon, and Google-parent Alphabet also fell sharply.
