Tesla’s CyberTruck, a futuristic pickup truck that has yet to hit the market, remains an ever-growing media phenomenon. This peculiar creation of Tesla not only attracts attention for its innovative features, but also for the witticisms of Elon Musk and the ingenious marketing strategies that the company uses to promote it, as the latest example of this: the CyberSpoon, a McDonald’s spoon.
Tesla has surprised the world by teaming up with the iconic fast food chain to create and launch the CyberSpoon. This unique spoon will be available in a limited edition, exclusively in McDonald’s restaurants in China, at a symbolic price of approximately 3.75 euros in exchange.
With only 50,000 units available, the CyberSpoon is expected to quickly become an object of desire for Tesla collectors and enthusiasts alike, according to Andro4All.
The CyberSpoon is inspired by the distinctive design of the Tesla CyberTruck and promises to stand out for its originality. Although its shape may seem unusual for a spoon, its eye-catching design and partnership with Tesla make it a sought-after item.
The popularity of McFlurry
The choice of McDonald’s as a partner for this promotion may seem surprising, but it makes sense in the Chinese context, where McFlurry ice creams are extremely popular. Diners who order a McFlurry at McDonald’s restaurants in China will be able to purchase the CyberSpoon as an additional accessory to enjoy their dessert in a unique way.
The spoon comes with a box specially designed for the occasion and bears the inscription “Don’t Panic”, a reference to the famous book “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy”, which is one of Elon Musk’s favorites and which has also been used as a slogan by Tesla in the past.
Although the CyberSpoon is currently exclusively in China, there is a possibility that this Tesla and McDonald’s eccentricity will expand to other markets as the Tesla CyberTruck is officially introduced in different regions.
