What are Tesla and McDonald’s up to?

When two powerful companies like Tesla and McDonald’s decide to make an announcement on the same day, something big is happening.

So before contemplating what the two companies might be brewing, it’s worth noting that this isn’t the first time Tesla and McDonald’s paths have crossed. Do you remember the McFlurry and its Tesla Cybertruck spoon that caused riots in Chinese fast-food restaurants? If we can slide a Tesla spoon, the Cyber Spoon, into a frozen dessert and make a hit, imagine what can be created around these two worlds…

The rumor originated from a post from McDonald’s on X (formerly Twitter), Elon Musk’s social media platform. It shows a classic McDonald’s paper bag with the order sticker reading “10.10”. If you’ve been living under a rock for the past few months, let us remind you that on October 10, 2024, Tesla will hold an exceptional conference to definitively present the Robotaxi, along with a few surprises. The event is called 10.10. Coincidence?

Some Tesla owners and shareholders have seriously speculated that Tesla might partner with McDonald’s to establish an autonomous delivery service. Imagine how classy it would be if your Big Mac Meal is delivered by an Autonomous Tesla! Customer loyalty guaranteed. Others joked that Tesla’s Optimus robots could find employment at McDonald’s restaurants. And why not?

But a rumor is like a campfire; if you don’t feed it, it dies out. To keep the flame alive, we can count on our favorite firestarter, Elon Musk, who fueled hopes or fears of a Tesla x McDonald’s collaboration by commenting on McDonald’s post with a simple yet incredibly effective laughing Emoji… Unless it’s just a coincidence? Communication is definitely an art.
