In a bizarre way of showing displeasure over Tesla's aftersales service, a man destroyed his electric car using a 30kg dynamite.

Why he actually destroyed the car
Tuomas displeasure is owing to the amount of repairing his faulty car cost. The Finnish had taken the car to a Tesla service centre to get it fixed after it developed multiple error codes in the instrument's cluster.

To his surprise, he would be told after the car had spent a month at the service centre that the repairs would be incomplete if the whip's entire battery pack isn't fixed and that getting the battery changed will cost €20,000 (N9.3 million).
His matter was made worse because the car's warranty had expired given that it was 8 years old.
This consequently informed his decision to destroy the car.
He had the demolition recorded
Tuomas ensured the demolition exercise was recorded and made a mockery of Tesla CEO and the world richest man Elon Musk by placing an effigy of him inside the car before it was destroyed.
A video capturing the demolition was shared on YouTube by Pommijatkat.
"It would cost me at least 20,000 Euros. So, I told them I am coming to pick up my car. And now I am going to explode the whole car away because apparently there was no guarantee or anything," Tuomas said in the video as the car was being set up for demolition.
