There is absolutely no reason to mistake this truck for something else on the road. His body is made of a steel alloy that according to Musk is dent-resistant and scratch-resistant, and according to a demo on-site at the soffit, it is also protected from a sledgehammer. In fact, he also says that cyber-pressure is bullet-proof up to 9mm grenades. The metal used should be the same as the metal used to skin the SpaceX Starship prototype being built and tested. It is also interesting that the exposed metal body parts are actually a structural part of the truck. It's literally unibody, where the body is the frame. The glass should also be extremely strong, although not quite as strong as hoped by Musk, because the glass of Cybertrucks splintered quite spectacularly on stage. Of course this is not planned, but hey, welcome to a Tesla vehicle debut.

We drove in the mid-engined twin-engine version of the truck, which is expected to climb from 0 to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds, eventually starting at $ 49,900. But while the prototype was fast, the sense of speed was dampened by its size and its (undisclosed) weight. It was not really the thrill Tesla is known for.

I really did not know what to make of the cyberprint when it was revealed, and you can even see that in my letter. At the conclusion of the live blog, I said, "It will not win much of the pick-up drivers, but I can definitely see that's good for the company." This related to the fact that it was the criteria of I wanted it to tick for a contractor truck.

There will also be a premium interior with the ability to seat six passengers. There's a 17-inch touchscreen and Tesla's proprietary technology for autonomous driving, which includes car parking, trailer hooking and self-drive. Tesla has also highlighted the possibility of adding an additional lifestyle vehicle, a Cyberquad Quad, that can be loaded into the Cybertruck Bay. As exciting as that sounds, that's all we know about the quad.

The immediate reaction to Tesla Cybertruck on Thursday is that it looks disgusting. But only three days later, after we took a breath, we can begin to read the great transformative message of the cold rolled bulletproof exoskeleton of stainless steel cybertruck. Franz von Holzhausen's design has a context. A quick look back at the architectural movement known as Brutalism shows that cybertruck has a unique goal: eradicate the automotive status quo.
