In a heartwarming gesture that blends high-tech luxury with deep familial appreciation, tech mogul Elon Musk has gifted his mother, Maye Musk, a brand-new 2026 Tesla Private Jet valued at an estimated $73 million.
The exclusive reveal came during a private family gathering earlier this week, with images and snippets from the event surfacing across social media, sparking widespread admiration and conversation.
The jet — a sleek, next-generation aircraft developed under Tesla Aerospace, one of Musk’s more recent and ambitious ventures — features fully electric propulsion systems, zero-emission travel, and a custom luxury interior designed to reflect both innovation and elegance.
Speaking about the extravagant gift, Musk shared a rare emotional statement:
“There’s no one like her. She made me who I am today — with strength, grace, and love. This is just a small token of the gratitude I feel every day.”
Maye Musk, a renowned model, dietitian, and author, has long been a visible and influential presence in Elon Musk’s life. She raised Elon and his siblings as a single mother while building her own successful career, becoming an icon in her own right.
Sources close to the Musk family say the jet was tailored with Maye in mind, incorporating features for comfort, sustainability, and ease of travel — all aligning with her values and lifestyle. The interior includes a reading lounge, a plant-based gourmet kitchen, and wellness-focused design elements.
This gift not only celebrates their personal bond but also showcases Tesla’s continued expansion beyond cars and energy, positioning itself as a future player in the high-end, sustainable aviation market.
The 2026 Tesla Private Jet is not yet available to the public, and Musk has remained tight-lipped about broader commercial plans, but this unveiling hints at big things on the horizon for Tesla Aerospace.
As always, Musk manages to blend personal stories with futuristic tech, and in doing so, he reminds the world that behind every visionary is someone who believed in them first.
