Tesla's fart mode is a real gem - Mashable


After getting a rundown on how the car works and what all the different buttons on the touchscreen controlled, I reached for the Tesla icon on the home screen. From there I knew I could slide open the hidden tricks and games, including the newest app: Emissions Testing Mode, aka "fart mode."

Sure enough, I could control which seats in the ironically emissions-free vehicle gave out a loud, noxious toot. Impressively, the farting noises really did sound like they were coming from the front passenger seat or the back seat. There's a drop-down menu of fart sound options, all named for inside jokes and nods to other Tesla CEO Elon Musk ventures and interests.

One of the seven fart options, Ludicrous (named for the all-out setting on some Tesla vehicles that can send the car practically flying), was the best. That emission option was perfectly juicy, but realistic -- all while still staying in the humorous realm. It never got too disgusting. And (for now) it's an odor-free experience, so it's more than tolerable. If you can't decide which fart you like best, there's an option for random gassing.

You can also set the farts to go off every time you use the turn signal, which is peak ridiculousness.

If Tesla ever goes belly-up, we now know why.
