Tesla has recently introduced a new horn upgrade option for Cybertruck owners, allowing them to customize the sound of their vehicle’s horn with a futuristic twist. The announcement was made through a notification in the Tesla app, where owners can preview the new sound and opt to upgrade.
One Cybertruck owner, Chuck Cook, shared the message he received in the Tesla app, stating that owners can now change their Cybertruck’s horn sound to a tone that suits the vehicle’s persona. The upgrade is offered for free to those who want to move away from the traditional horn sound or are envious of newer Cybertruck owners. It is important to note that once the upgrade is made, it is permanent, and downgrades will not be supported.
Owners have the option to test the new horn sound within the app before making the change. The app provides two choices: “Play” to listen to the new sound and “Upgrade Now” to install it. Cook mentioned that no software update was required for the feature to appear.
The original horn sound is typical of most vehicles, while the upgraded horn sound introduces a distinctly futuristic vibe to the Cybertruck. This new feature follows Tesla’s previous addition of new horn and lock sounds for the Cybertruck as part of a Spring software update earlier this year.
Siddhant Awasthi, Cybertruck Vehicle Program Manager, teased the rollout of the customizable horn upgrade on X, giving credit to Tesla’s “amazing firmware team” for developing the feature. This new customization option adds another layer of personality to the Cybertruck, aligning with Tesla’s innovative approach to vehicle upgrades. It is convenient that owners can enable this upgrade simply by agreeing to a prompt in the Tesla mobile app.
Overall, the new horn upgrade for Cybertruck owners adds a unique and futuristic touch to the vehicle, allowing owners to personalize their driving experience even further. Tesla continues to demonstrate its commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction through these exciting updates.
