Tesla’s Cybertruck hasn’t officially hit the roads yet and it’s already received the
meme treatment, no thanks in part to a
snafu that left its “bulletproof” windows smashed during a live presentation. The vehicle’s radical sci-fi appearance also help bring it notoriety.
Even ahead of the pickup truck’s debut, CEO Elon Musk announced that the Cybertruck will undergo some changes so that it will look less… garish. In a recent tweet, he revealed that the pickup will be smaller by “~three percent” with a “more level” center line and a shorter window sill.
He also mentioned before that the final design will be “slightly better,” as well as “show real-time changes to max acceleration, braking, cornering, speed on gradient and range.”
Concept artists have since imagined the revamp in
new renders following closely to Musk’s statements, including design student Alwin, who has shared his version on Twitter.
As depicted in comparison images, the refreshed pickup truck is envisioned to be a touch smaller, with a more perpendicular center line and a lower, shorter window sill.
Along with hinting at an updated appearance, Musk said that he will be running an “overall system review” for the vehicle with his engineering team this week, and might announce additional details about the new design.
