Tesla reveals their Cybertruck pickup

[aaron17]

Matte black or camo would look bess.

They take the pic while it was still in the shipping crate.

Maybe in real life it may look better... But from what I see, is like them 1960s movies that show flying cars in 2000... That kinda thing


EDIT... it takes meh ah while but I figure out what it looks like.... 2000... 2001 sentra wagon

Had a thought..get an old pickup....attach some galvanized sheeting and ur good to go lol

[sMASH]

feature wise and hipster wise, it good. fan boys will adopt it.
y sell a good product when u can sell a slightly bad product, and still later sell the good product U ALREADY DEVELOPED

it looking retarded in the pics and vids, except for the vid duane posted, where u got a better sense of the size. it looking huge, and it not looking that retarded.
i would not mind a double rear axle version of this.

If that start selling In Trinidad everybody gonna run it down and like the style..

It’s prototype doh.. bare bones.. hardly ever does the prototype look like the production.

Knowing what they done in the past..i think it does be close.

Car manufacturers: We need to make cars rounder in the event of pedestrian collisions

Tesla pickup reminds me of death race.

when they unveiled the Model 3 it was just like the actual car sold. Same for previous models.
They do it Apple style and not prototype style link other manufacturers do in an Auto Show.

And they said John Delorean was crazy!

I could see our liscence office having a big problem with those led lighting bars.

Could also see them with big lift kit and fender attachments

[eliteauto]

I like it

All it needs is curtains.

I now seeing these pics on the app. That design on the Lockheed F-117 is for stealth purposes. Not aerodynamics. That flat panel shape called facets, as well as the special absorption black paint helps to scatter radar, etc. It's an old design about 1978.

Looks like Jeremy Clarkson had a hand with the body design
How that could possibly be streamlined and energy efficient against wind drag at any speed? I feel this is just a prototype model to get people talking, but the next iteration will be the real deal.


*It will start at $39,900 and begin production in 2021.

Folded plane bodies can be some of the most aerodynamic shapes possible. The designs date back to late 70's.

The body shape chosen by Tesla for the Cybertruck was a consequence of the designers' incorporating the built in sliding bed cover. The bed cover slides out of the way and onto the roof.

That shape is actually not very good aerodynamically at ground speeds. Even at flight subsonic and supersonic speeds that airfoil shape is not ideal for aerodynamic efficiency but rather increased maneuverability among other things.

But ent fellas like Hummer and Jimny that also designed with ruler and set square?

Pickup "Van" supposed to be a load/goods transport vehicle so I don't really see the need for high speed and therefore aerodynamics/looks shouldn't be a top priority.

The fact that it could right-off a tiida/almera/B13 with little to no damage to itself, is a great selling point.

The tooling and moulds for that pickup going to be limited to a sheet-metal bender/brake.

I like how the black looks though

Confirmed...coming in all matte black option @2:45

[matr1x]

Didn't bullets crack the bullet proof glass?


Hahahha

[worksux101]

I absolutely love it. May be the first pickup I'd actually consider buying if Tesla ever has a dealer here.

Sorry, but this vehicle is simply ugly in my view.
Then again is a fine line between genius and insanity.

[aaron17]

Every other truck looks the same and boring.
