Some Tesla engineers secretly started designing a Cybertruck alternative because they ‘hated’ it::“They were like, ‘You can’t be serious.’ They didn’t want to have anything to do with it,” Franz von Holzhausen said, according to Walter Isaacson.

    There’s a lot to hate. It’s insanely ugly. It’s like a PT Cruiser and a Nissan Cube mated and all the worst car genes went right into the CybeR TruCk.

      Slightly off-topic, but do you know what I hated the most about the Nissan Cube? IT WASN’T A FUCKING CUBE!

        What was weird is that the rear dome lights had consenteic waves radiating from it like the headliner was water and the light was dropped into it.

          Fine, then call it the Nissan Brick. Because it’s not a cube!

            What im saying is that the Jeep Cherokee XJ Sport is closer to a cube than the Nissan cube.

      Not to mention that it’s an absolute hazard to pedestrians and cyclists. I hope that if this thing gets released, the EU just straight up bans it from the roads.

      This thing, while not as body-crushing as a twice-raised SUV, will still fuck you up acting like a blunt knife.
