The controversy began after Ramzan Kadyrov shared a video of himself driving the EV and thanking Elon Musk on camera
Elon Musk emphatically denied gifting a Tesla to a Chechen leader and Russia n general. Ramzan Kadyrov shared a video of himself driving the EV equipped with a machine gun. The Chechen warlord openly thanked Elon Musk for creating the electric truck. Let’s face it—the internet is an odd place, yet nothing baffles us more than the enduring allure of misinformation.
In the video, Kadyrov test-drives the electric pickup, now armed with a machine gun. As a close ally of Putin, he lauded the vehicle's capabilities, claiming it would soon be sent to the frontlines in Russia's war against Ukraine. Anton Gerashchenko, a self-proclaimed Ukrainian patriot, later shared the video on X , alleging that Kadyrov had received the Cybetruck directly from Elon Musk.
