- A TikTok trend shows users trading in Teslas to a popular Taylor Swift song.
- The videos show people driving down their driveways in a Tesla and then returning in a different EV.
- The trend comes amid the largest day of "Tesla Takedown" protests on Saturday.
Trading in a Tesla? There's a new TikTok trend for that.
People are posting before-and-after videos of their Tesla trade-ins accompanied by the hashtag "ByeTesla" and Taylor Swift's 2017 hit, "Look What You Made Me Do."
As with most viral TikTok trends, the posts mostly follow a similar format. They show a driver backing out of their garage or driveway in their Tesla as the lyrics play: "I'm sorry, the old Taylor can't come to the phone right now. Why? Oh, 'cause she's dead."
Then, the video cuts to the driver pulling up in a new, non-Tesla car to the song's chorus of "Look what you made me do."
