Tesla vehicles are now capable of emitting flatulence sounds through their external speakers following a recent software update. This feature, dubbed "Emissions," allows owners to select from a variety of fart sounds that can be triggered remotely or through the car's interface. The update also includes a "fart mode" that can be activated by a button on the steering wheel.
This integration of a novelty sound effect into vehicle software follows a pattern of playful and often unexpected features introduced by Tesla. Previously, the company has enabled features such as the "Boombox" function, which allowed owners to play custom sounds or music through the car's external speaker while parked, and even the ability to draw on the car's center screen. The farting capability appears to be an extension of this effort to imbue the Tesla experience with an element of amusement and personalization, reflecting a unique approach to automotive software development.
