At least one owner needed stitches after running their hands down the edge near the tailgate in their first 20 minutes of ownership.
Just bumping into it in a parking could be more dangerous.
Also any US cars available for sale in Europe have to meet pedestrian crash standards and have softer metal in the hood, no Harding that protrude under said hood, and plastic front fascia that deform more easily. The deplorean has neither of these things. Though most large trucks in the US don’t either, since we don’t have those rules here.
Ah, that sounds like a jagged edge of a panel and not a corner of the vehicle. Standard poor build quality stuff. That wouldn’t make a difference at all in a crash scenario, but definitely do not pet the cyber truck.
The jagged edges are the corners of the vehicle as designed.
It’s designed with thick sheet metal instead rolled panel edges like all other vehicles. Because of this, the leading edges of the panels are going to do more damage no matter how well they’re built and finished.
The creases and stiffness of the panels are very much worse on the ct too, don’t get me wrong. It was designed to look imposing and the side effect is dangerous to everyone else near them.
