It’s not 80’s enough to have a cool cyberpunk aesthetic, but if they leaned in to that they could have made something that looked really cool to me and the 12 of us that like that look.

But then the clean interior would immediately lose us. Gotta have a bunch of crap, buttons and nobs and stuff all over the interior. With no less than 4 screens giving you information at any given time.

Work with me here. Picture something like this as the general aesthetic of the car.

CRTs, every one of them. With those old curly phone-cord looking cables coming out the side.

And they function as patch cables to let you pick what displays on each of them by hooking them into the designated port “on the mainframe”

Cable management is the only way to tell what’s stock and what’s mod, man. That’s the look I want.

Ya I’d love something like the cybertruck but not at that price, maybe mix it with a borderlands out runner

I mean, you can get a truck chassis at a you-pull and fabricate your own cyber body if you have the space and sheer force of will…

if you want 80s/cool cyberpunk aesthetic you need to go to Hyundai and their Vision 74 concept: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pu1yzLEsc1Q

If they make a wagon in that style I’d sell a kidney

From this angle (no pun intended) it looks like the nose fell off.

This is the car that a sixth grader draws in his notebook between a Cool S and a barbarian sword.

That S looks way cooler than this car, though.

Elon told you that this car will win any argument with another car. If a car full of teen showed you disrespect you should track them and ram them at high speed with your powerful torque. See their crummy car be flattened by your invincible steel battleship. You are the elite, the king of the road, don’t you dare forget it or everything falls apart.

To be fair, the thing is still probably going to fall apart anyway if past Tesla weld quality is any indication.

But not before passning all that impact energy goodness to the passengers due to the lack of crumple zones.

and pedestrians, and the people in the other vehicle… I suspect this thing is going to be a lawsuit factory for Tesla.

You can do that already with a GMC Sierra

funniest part to me is this thing is going to cost owners so much money on body work. Any dent, ding, scratch etc. is gonna JUMP out on those clean steel panels, body shops aren’t going to be able to hammer out (would leave impact marks all over) or fill and sand (unless you like that bondo patch atop SS look lol) - or purchase entire replacement panels from Tesla, if they make any (and have the excess production capacity for spares) available.

Oh and the lawsuits for making vehicles designed to slice through other vehicles - stainless doesn’t have the crumple / impact absorption modern vehicles are designed for.

There’s an Easter egg in Satisfactory (3d base building/logistics video game) where you can craft a “Cyber Wagon”, which looks exactly like a Cybertruck but with square wheels, and has the highest fuel consumption rate of any vehicle aside from the personal jetpack. It also handles like absolute shit on account of the square wheels.

But you can actually carry cargo in it. So it’s still better than the real one.
