Tesla will now let customers change the sound of their car's horn. The announcement comes from the company's CEO, Elon Musk, who stated that in the near future Tesla owners will be able to alter the sound of their car's horn, as well as the sound of the vehicle when moving at low speeds. Musk also stated that consideration will be made to allow customers to add their own custom sound.

Elon Musk did not provide a full list of potentially available sounds, however, the CEO did list some of the sounds that will be available. Included in the list were sounds like goat bleats, the wind, and most notably coconut noises from the film Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
