Ok so I’m not saying it looks GOOD but…wow, this car is so much less ugly in black.
I have even less respect for people who buy the plain silver knowing this is an option.
That’s likely a wrap as there’s no paint on offer from Tesla and a clear vinyl wrap is available for I think 3k. This black wrap was likely done at a third party shop. Probably cost around a 300 to a grand depending.
While this accident would likely have severely damaged any vehicle, the sardine-can-style peeling of bodywork on the Cybertruck may be due to its unique construction. Whereas a standard body panel would have likely crumpled and deformed, the Cybertruck’s rigid stainless steel material likely wasn’t able to, and was instead ripped off the vehicle.
Aren’t “crumple zones” a thing cars are supposed to have?
Only weak pansy cars have crumple zones. Back in my day, the cars were built stronger. You could run over a cat and barely feel it. Head on collision? I could drive away from those, provided the engine block didn’t end up in the passenger space. These modern cars just give up and die, and the mandatory seat belts just trap you inside instead of being safely thrown clear of the vehicle. AMERICAN STEEL! LEADED GASOLINE! I YEARN FOR THE GOOD OL DAYS!
