Elon Takes Chinas US Ambassador For A Spin
Posted On: March 5, 2022

Tesla CEO Elon Musk recently offered a ride to China's Ambassador to the United States in a Model S Plaid equipped with FSD Qin Gang described the experience as a "smooth ride" despite the vehicle's being very powerful.


A China-based Tesla representative confirmed to Bloomberg that the drive took place in Fremont, California, without providing further details. The diplomat shared photographs from inside the car on Twitter, along with a shot from a meeting with Musk, dressed in a black suit and tie, which is not a very common outfit for the eccentric chief executive.


In the tweet, Qin Gang said he and Musk discussed everything from cars to "stars in the sky, research on human brain, meaning of life on earth and our future into the space."


In stark contrast to the cold relationship Musk has with US government officials, Tesla's CEO has established close ties with officials from China, the world's largest EV market and home to the US company's first overseas factory.

My Take: I guess Elon was being a diplomat to his biggest customer base. Good plan.
