People are only just realising Tesla’s logo has a hidden meaning

Tesla’s iconic T logo isn’t just a tribute to the brand’s name—it carries a deeper meaning. A recent Reddit discussion speculated that the logo might represent a specific part of an engine. Elon Musk later confirmed this theory, explaining that the pointed T design resembles a cross-section of an electric motor. Just like SpaceX’s X symbol mirrors a rocket’s trajectory, Tesla’s logo also has a technical twist. Fans online found this explanation fascinating, with some still offering their own interpretations, from a cat’s nose to a Serbian axe.

The debate highlights how effective and open to interpretation Tesla’s logo design really is. Musk, who’s been sleeping in factories and working non-stop, seems just as dedicated to Tesla as ever, despite recent rumors of a rift with Donald Trump. Musk, once dubbed the “first buddy” for slashing government jobs and championing efficiency, denies claims he’ll be stepping away from his political involvement. His focus remains firmly on Tesla’s growth and maintaining its powerful brand identity.
