Tesla Cybertruck in a Parking Lot

A Tesla Cybertruck caught in a massive explosion, followed by the fire outside of Trump International Hotel Las Vegas on Wednesday. This blast has reportedly caused the driver’s life and injured seven other people.

Video video emerged online showing the truck parked in front of the hotel’s main entrance. One of the main entrance cameras recorded the explosion, which also showed firecrackers bursting in the aftermath.

This clip has raised a debate online as well as speculations, about whether it was caused by the truck’s large battery. However, the explosion’s magnitude doesn’t seem to align with this specific thought.

Some other thinks that this could be an act of terrorism, which the FBI is currently investigating and there’s much that is yet to be known.

Images shared by LA law enforcement officials show the truck bed filled with the leftover of the fireworks and gas tanks. Post-explosion, the truck remained intact with all of its body parts.

Cybertruck is a stainless steel electric pickup truck designed and sold by Tesla. Its unconventional design has garnered industry-wide attention, which is why the truck’s body part remained in one piece.

Tesla teams started a separate investigation on the vehicle’s internal systems prior to the blast. Tesla CEO, Elon Musk said that fireworks or an intentional blast caused the explosion and it was a rental Cybertruck.

“We have now confirmed that the explosion was caused by very large fireworks and/or a bomb carried in the bed of the rented Cyebrtruck and is unrelated to the vehicle itself. All vehicle telemetry was positive at the time of the explosion” wrote Musk on X.

In the meantime, a conclusion on this explosion case could only be made by the investigation agency and we’ll have to wait for a wrap-up.
