This is not the first time the Tesla Lightning bottle appeared. In November last year, according to CNN, as cited by CCTV Finance, Elon Musk, CEO of electric car maker Tesla? Musk’s involvement in the business has expanded from rockets and cars to alcohol.
On the 5th local time, Tesla launched the same brand of tequila on its official website, Tesla described the liquor as “an exclusive, small-batch premium liquor made with 100 percent agave, aged 15 months in French oak barrels and poured into hand-blown glass bottles with dried fruit and a hint of vanilla, and just the right amount of cinnamon pepper. ” The exterior of the Tesla Tequila is a lightning bolt shaped glass bottle, and a bottle of the spirit has a capacity of 750 ml, 40% alcohol content, and is priced at $250, or about RMB 1,658, which is more than the official retail price of a bottle of Fei Tian Moutai.

In the same year, Tesla filed a trademark application for “Teslaquila” with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.
Selling peripheral products in a fancy way

The shorts have the Tesla brand logo printed on the front and “S3XY” on the back, representing the four Tesla models ModelS, Model3, Model X and ModelY respectively. The shorting shorts are priced at $69.420, and the price on the official website in mainland China is 420 yuan.
The reason Tesla launched the shorting shorts was to hit back at investors who were shorting Tesla stock or betting that Tesla stock would fall. But after the shorting shorts went online on Tesla’s official website, they were grabbed by consumers like crazy.
In addition to the shorting shorts, Tesla has also sold limited edition surfboards and Spitfires, both of which were highly sought after by consumers. 2018 saw Tesla launch a limited edition custom surfboard on its official website. The board is unique in that it features the same high-quality matte and glossy finishes as all of Tesla’s cars, while the board itself is made of lightweight “BlackDart” carbon fiber and features the Tesla logo on the top of the board.
The custom board is priced at $1,500 (about $9,942), while the famous surf brand LostSurfboards, which works with Tesla, sells its boards for an average of $700 (about $4,639). Although the price is obviously inflated, the limited number of 200 surfboards sold out quickly.
In addition, Tesla has also sold a limited number of Spitfire guns on its official website. 2017, Musk founded the company – The BoringCompany, which aims to solve the problem of ground traffic congestion by digging tunnels underground. But before the tunnel was dug, the company launched its product, the flamethrower, and claimed that the flamethrower was the safest flamethrower ever, priced at $600 (about 3,977 yuan).
The company promised that the flamethrower gun can be sent to any country, the spring of that year began to ship, the buyer can also add an additional $30 (about RMB 199 yuan) to buy fire extinguishers. But the company also said that the fire extinguisher and the fire extinguisher on the market is not different, just more company logo.
The flamethrower sold 4,000 units in a short time. This means that the company earned $2.4 million in revenue by selling the flamethrower online.
