Cybertruck seen in Trump’s motorcade to SpaceX launch

Published November 20, 2024 3:02pm ET



President-elect Donald Trump‘s motorcade lineup to and from Tuesday’s SpaceX launch included a Tesla Cybertruck.

The convoy featured a mix of the typical black Chevys and Fords plus the lone electric vehicle. Presidents have long traveled via motorcade but typically use uniform, bulletproof vehicles for the president’s safety. Cybertrucks aren’t completely bulletproof but will protect from lighter gunfire. This inclusion of a Cybertruck was a nod to SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who welcomed Trump to the launch site.
