Tesla CEO Elon Musk has said that the new Tesla Model S Plaid can play high-end games like CD Projekt Red’s Cyberpunk 2077. At an event for the new Tesla Model S Plaid, which was live-streamed, Musk showed off the luxury electric sedan, where a man was seen playing Cyberpunk 2077 on the car’s redesigned infotainment system. Even though Musk had been teasing about Tesla’s new infotainment system for a few months, many weren’t sure how the sedan’s interior screen would be able to drive graphics-intensive games like Cyberpunk 2077. Musk claims that it runs on ‘PS5-level’. ‘.

Musk explained how the game works in a high-performance sedan at a recent Tesla Model S Plaid event. He added that the sedan had a “state-of-the-art infotainment system” and could deliver “PS5-level performance”. He also said that Cyberpunk 2077 could be run at 60FPS, which will make the experience even more special. You can watch the video below.
Musk has a soft spot for Cyberpunk 2077. In January of this year, the Tesla CEO made some tweets about the Plaid Model S, where he mentioned that “it could play cyberpunk”.

Cyberpunk 2077 is developed by The Witcher fame CD Projekt. The game introduces a vast futuristic open world for players to explore with Johnny Silverhand, drawn and voiced by Hollywood star Keanu Reeves. No wonder it is pretty popular.
CD Projekt tweeted a few days ago from the official Twitter handle of Cyberpunk 2077 that players have spent a total of 600 million hours playing the game so far.

Since then, developers have released several hotfixes and patches to fix the glitch.
