Elon Musk Responds After Jay-Z and Beyonce Take Delivery of Their Brand New White Interior Tesla Cybertruck & Immediately Wrap it Matte Black

Jay-Z and his wife Beyonce have taken delivery of a white interior Tesla Cybertruck and immediately wrapped it in black. Elon Musk has responded to this decision.

With their ability to carry large objects and travel long distances, trucks are primarily meant as tools to complete a job. In particular, full-sized pickup trucks with a six-foot-long truck bed and beefy suspension are ideal for the job site.

However, in the past few years, pickup trucks have crossed over from simple tools for a job and have become lifestyle vehicles with bells and whistles that match luxury vehicles.

Expensive pickup trucks with MSRPs over $60,000 now make up the largest segment of the US auto market and account for the lion’s share of profit for the same automakers.

The tested and true method for building an outstanding pickup truck has been a six-foot bed, a powerful v8 or v6 engine, advanced suspension, cameras, a luxurious/spacious interior, and other technological offerings.

The system was working perfectly; automakers were making the trucks people asked for, and in return, they were racking in profits.

That was at least until Tesla and Elon Musk came and disrupted the entire truck market with the Cybertruck. The Cybertruck resembles more an armored truck from the future than a conventional pickup truck.

Given its out-of-the-box design, many people criticized Tesla for building the Cybertruck instead of a conventional electric truck. They lamented that the EV maker missed out on a significant profit opportunity.

Although the Cybertruck was exciting, there were doubts about whether people would purchase and use the vehicle for their job site or as a daily driver.

Tesla started delivering the Cyberytruck at the end of November, and the truck appears to be a smashing success.

We have seen many people showing their Cybertrucks in public, including Jay Leno, Serena Williams, husband and Reddit creator Alexis Ohanian, Pharrell Williams, and so on.

And over the weekend, a new couple, Jay-Z and Beyonce, joined the Cybertruck bandwagon.

Thanks to a picture posted on Instagram by Lenny Santiago, the vice president of Roc Nation, we know that Jay-Z is now the new owner of a brand new white interior Cybertruck.

So what does his new Cybertruck look like from the outside? It appears that Jay-Z has chosen to wrap his Cybertruck matte black immediately after delivery. The matte black exterior and white interior give Jay-Z’s Cybertruck a beautiful contrasting look.

Although undoubtedly aesthetically pleasing, the Cybertruck’s exposed stainless steel exterior was meant to eliminate paint – an expensive yet flimsy layer – from outside the truck.

Elon Musk and the Tesla team decided to leave the Cybertruck’s exterior with exposed stainless steel to increase the truck’s durability.

However, most new Cybertruck owners have chosen to wrap their trucks in various colors, sacrificing practicality in the name of individuality.

So how did Elon Musk respond to seeing Jay-Z and Beyonce’s wrapped matte black Cybertruck? The Tesla CEO saw the truck on Twitter and appeared impressed with the wrap job, writing simply, “Nice.”

In this instance, Musk doesn’t appear too bothered that by wrapping his Cybertruck matte black, the famed rapper has significantly sacrificed the truck’s durability.

Currently, both men appear satisfied with the Cybertruck, and we’ll be sure to keep you posted as we learn more about the issue at hand. Until then, visit our site, torquenews.com/Tesla, regularly for the latest updates.
