Serena Williams will be entering cyberspace the next time she gets into the cabin of her husband’s truck.
Alexis Ohanian was one of the first people to take delivery of a Cybertruck at an event held at Tesla’s Texas factory on Novembrer 30.
Ohanian was seen during the live broadcast wearing a black satin jacket with “Invest In Women’s Sports” written on the back as Elon Musk personally handed over the vehicle to him.
A few days later he posted a video to X with his first impressions and wrote “runs smooth, smells nice, and reminds me of an APC from Aliens” in the message.
HERE’S HOW TO TURN THE CYBERTRUCK INTO A SEMI-SUBMERSIBLE VEHICLE
He replied to the post with a clip from the movie “Aliens” showing one of the armored personnel carriers featured in it, noting, “for reference (this was my favorite movie growing up).”
“It is big, but not unwieldy,” he said in the video as he drove the nearly three and a half ton truck.
“It’s spacious, comfortable, super, super futuristic-feeling.”
He didn’t say which model he got, but the top of the line Cybertbeast has 845 hp, can accelerate to 60 mph in 2.6 seconds and is equipped with a four-wheel-steering system that allows it to make much tighter turns than a typical full-size pickup.
And while the starting price is $99,990 before delivery fees, several early reservation holders have revealed that they are first being offered the opportunity to order a limited-edition Foundation Series model.
According to the form shown on the vehicle’s infotainment system screen, the model is priced at $119,990, but comes fully loaded and includes the Full Self-Driving system — which is normally a $12,000 option — the Powershare equipment needed to use the truck’s battery has a home power backup during blackouts and laser-etched badging, which is not specified.
I FIXED THE CYBERTRUCK’S DANGEROUS DESIGN FLAW
The standard Cybertruck has no exterior Tesla or model name badges.
Williams, of course, is a spokesperson for Lincoln, so maybe she’ll pass on going for a ride.
