The explosion took place in a quarry in the municipality of Al-Jaala, where the owner of the car and his team put 33 kilograms of dynamite in the car.

Katainen claims his Model S was a great car until it broke down.

“It was an excellent car,” but the problems began. “So the error codes arrived.”

The cost of a new Tesla Model S equivalent to your car is about 95 thousand US dollars (541.5 thousand Brazilian reals). The owner thought it was better to blow up the car in exchange for a YouTube rating and a bonus than to get it fixed.
