As part of an April's Fool's Day joke some pranksters at Google, coloured co-founder Sergey Brin's Tesla Model S, electric car pink. Oh and they added a Batman logo and some bat wings at the back of the car.

Corey Tabaka, who works at Google X shared the picture on his Google Plus page, and you can see Sergey Brin taking the car out for a spin.

The images were also shared on Twitter and the Tesla Motors Club forum.

If you notice, the car also has Chrome rims on the tyres.

According to NYDailyNews, the prank was played out by the staff at Google X, the company's division that is responsible for Moon Shots such as Google's self-driven cars, and of course Google Glass. Brin heads the Google X division.

Incidentally, the pranksters used pink vinyl to wrap the car to avoid permanent damage.
