    Looks like an absolutely stripped-down skeleton of a car built specifically to do attention-grabbing stunts, and not even close to driveable under anything resembling normal conditions.

      That’s the vibe I got from it as well, but I was wondering if anyone had better confirmation. Like I don’t know what the average Tesla looks like underneath so I don’t have anything to compare it to.

      But that was my guess, it’s hollow and completely rocket powered, even when it was “driving”, and remotely controlled.

          It’s probably a light weight aluminum frame with a plastic body on top. I’d be surprised if the tires were even rubber and not rigid foam or something to save weight.
