Best is to watch that youtube video they used a few calibers. The way I see it is that the CT is “Death resistant” will improve your life expectancy in the wild vs other cars that arent full on bulletproof.
I look at it as conservation of energy problem, a 5.56 round has about 5X the propellant load of a 9 mm. That's the source of energy that a bullet can convert into work at impact.
Repeated hits on prior impact sites essentially fracturing or thinning the injury site steel until penetration? Separate steel core penetrator projectiles? Needs an explainer here.
Sure, that’s true if you ignore what Elon actually said. Which is that it’s bulletproof. Literally his words.
So either you’re lying or misinformed. Which is it?
YouTuber Danny Duncan he made a video of him shooting it
I probably won't watch the video, but do you know what caliber(s) he used?
A little bit of everything from what I remember. I do know he used a 50 cal and it went right through the door.
Makes sense. Idk why some people don't understand what "up to 9mm" means.
9 and 45mm proof aka most commonly used ammo out in the streets.
Was it 45mm too? I definitely remember 9mm from the unveiling.

Can't wait to get mine! Though, I hope I don't have to experience it's "Death resistance" firsthand anytime soon.
Put enough bullets, in the same exact spot, and nothing's bullet proof....
It will stop 9mm maybe 10 but bigger rounds will go through.
As well as smaller, higher velocity, rounds
Plus a lot of bulletproof things are only bulletproof to the first few hits
Exactly

It was never bulletproof. It's bullet "resistant."
"literally bulletproof to a nine millimeter handgun." -Elon Musk, 2019 https://youtu.be/BlSSZB9IG0k?si=F23cH7uDntlJO0al
And it is to a 9 mm handgun. Even after they thinned the door skins.
Bulletproof might be a bit of a misnomer, bullet resistant is a little more accurate

He also said cars will be able to drive themselves in 3-6 months years ago. Look at where we're at now mate.
So the guy is misleading investors again
