It sounds like Tesla's engineers have been working on something fun in their spare time. According to CEO Elon Musk, the next software update for Tesla's in-car infotainment system will include three classic Atari video games as Easter eggs.

As is his habit, Musk made the pronouncement via Twitter, promising that the games Pole Position, Tempest and Missile Command would be offered. For Pole Position, a classic racing game, Musk even said that drivers would be able to control their virtual car by turning the real-world Tesla's steering wheel -- albeit while the car is safely parked. Though no more specifics were offered so far, the other games will presumably be controlled by touching the giant screens that make up the Teslas' infotainment systems.
