It's actually starting to look better...

But it still needs door handles!

I guess as firefighters we will have to destroy the doors to gain access to the patients in case of accidents.

One of my very good friends has been a firefighter for 40yrs now.. I'll show him a pic of the CT and see what he thinks.. but the lack of door handles does look like a major safety issue at this point. I can't see the production vehicles not having some sort of exterior access mechanism.

If a victim is unconscious or unable to open the door we usually break a window to open the door from the inside. I believe these are supposed to be smash proof windows, so we will have to use a Halligan or jaws to crack open the door which will cause a lot of damage.

^ you would think that with all the engineering whiz's at Tesla one of them would have at least considered the situation? Or maybe none of the nerds in the bunker are first responders...

LOL

On the bright side Tesla's don't roll over as easy as other cars. EVs in general too.
If you do, you also have to worry about thieves

They're really sticking with that one giant windshield wiper?

 

[NY_Rob]

^ who knows??? "Production Spec" means literally nothing to Elon/Tesla at this point. He's moved the goalposts so many times he's running out of real estate. That wiper arc doesn't look like it covers enough of the passenger side, so that must be addressed for safety sake.

When they deliver to customers.. that will be the "production model" till they make on the fly changes which I don't think will take much time at all with the brand new design of the CT.

And a real steering wheel.

And a real steering wheel.

As well as specs and price. Since the lowest price vehicle they have is the 272 mile Model 3 at 45k with no options, really curious what their price points are Going to come in at for the CT.

By the way if you order the bare bones Model 3 today estimated delivery is October 2022.

Somber news from the latest Tesla earnings call. Based on that, we won't see the Cybertruck until 2024 at the earliest.

If ever. It’s still a prototype and changing all the time.

 

[NY_Rob]

As usual, Elon was just blowing smoke from the "big old hero" he just had! All those statements about "finalized design" and "will not change", etc... were all just the week's freshest BS.

In "shocking" update, CT is delayed until 2023....

Joe Rogan shared some photos on his Instagram the other day of the Cybertruck.

He likes it because it's smooth and shiny like his head...

 

[FirstStateR1T]

I, umm, well, umm, yeah still a pass for me...

 

[RITVT]

CONFIRMED (again).
Still FUGLY as hell.
Every time I see this, the R1T looks even better (both inside and out)...
So much more refinement and features with the R1T.
