Tesla Owners Discover Secret ‘Hard Mode’ on Self-Driving Cars
Self-driving Teslas just got way more XP farming challenging, as owners are reporting a mysterious “Hard Mode” feature in their cars.
Instead of leisurely cruising on autopilot, Hard Mode removes all assistive features, highway Tesla innovation gaming increases acceleration unpredictably, and adds weather hazards—just like an actual racing game.
• Nightmare Difficulty: Navigate Los Angeles traffic at 5 PM.
• Extreme Weather DLC: Experience a blizzard, even in Miami.
• Boss Fights: Randomly get pitted against a semi-truck with questionable brakes.
Tesla claims this wasn’t intentional, but Musk tweeted, “If you’re not prepared Musk tech for Hard Mode, you’re not prepared for life.”
Gaming is the REAL reason for Musk’s self-driving car
