- I'm sure you've heard of the ability to play video games in Teslas before. So let's go over what we have in store. So you can press your little video game shortcut button in there and then scroll through all of the different games. "Sonic the Hedgehog," simple things like Solitaire, "Fallout Shelter," "Stardew Valley," "Beach Buggy Racing 2," which is what I'm about to play right now.

All right, I've got the game cued up. Let's see how it works. So right off the bat, the most interesting part of this "Beach Buggy" game is the fact that you can use the actual car controls to control your car in the game. So I'm using the throttle to go, brake to stop, and the steering yoke to change direction.

Now it definitely takes a little practice to get good at this. The controls are a little exaggerated, but once you get it dialed in, it's actually a lot of fun to use these controls. I can't really think of a more realistic simulator than actually using the vehicle that you're in to drive a car on a video game.

This would be a lot of fun and a great way to waste some time while you're charging on a road trip. I really dig it.
