As engineer myself I have tears in my eyes listening to these great team leaders! Knowledgeable and fearless, humble and proud, what a cool team! Thank you for sharing!
I’m an engineer myself and I love that they all know what’s going on in each group. I can’t even begin to count the number of times I’ve heard things like oh that’s such and suchs teams problem, let them find it.
This is unprecedented--treating the audience like mature adults. The charisma of these engineers, and their transparency and enthusiasm... I was thinking that this video is different than any other car company in history; young people will learn more from this video than they would in 10 years of public school. This is a gift to Humanity, and that's not hyperbole.
I’m not an investor, I’m not a car expert, but this is one of the most amazing videos I’ve ever seen. Has anyone else ever seen an engineering team so focused, so in tune with each other and so proud of their work. Sandy, thanks for pulling this together. I hope the entire Tesla community gets a chance to see this and any OEMshould be peeing their pants about now
May 21, 2011 was the beginning of judgement day on the world { you were warned }. As a retried RF test equipment engineer, I used to think about timing; thoroughly impressed with their network. But, there is One who designed time itself.... they have less than a decade to play with their toys. The biblical calendar of history has been known, published, and carefully studied for 50+ years. The expertise involved in designing that is far above anything these guys could even imagine. 13,000 plus years of history put together and orchestrated to the very day! The door to heaven was SHUT on the 17th day of the second month, 7000 years to the very day after the door to the ark in 4990BC (May, 21, 2011). Fear, and the pit, and the snare are upon thee O inhabitant of the earth. Isaiah 24;17 spoiler alert: 2033 = 'last day' curious? look up Ebiblefellowship Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded; But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof: I also with laugh at your calamity, I will mock when your fear cometh; Proverbs 1; 24-26
As an engineer it's just amazing to hear this team discuss the vehicle. They are all so intimately familiar with the technology and design; it's like they have a single brain! 🧠 I should be a little bit over 100,000 on the wait list. Can't wait to take delivery!
Brilliant choice by Tesla to allow public access to these guys. They not only are top of their fields, they are relatable and humble. This really lends confidence to future of the company
Every public facing person at Tesla is an absolute genius. And they treat the public like actual adults! I was watching a Ford engineer in a video, and he explained how the new Ford Mach-E "drives like a Mustang." Tesla would never make such a vague statement; they always explain things fully, without trying to water it down and make it sound palatable to soccer moms. Consumers actually want to be treated like adults.
Yeah I came across being very impressed. They are serious and know what they are talking about. I think it it would be fun to work for Tesla. It would be hard work of course, but exciting
On top of that, each one is an expert on his specific expertise, yet each one seems to know the whole picture with a depth of the comprehensive knowledge! So when one speaks, all the rest of the team perfectly understands what he is saying! That's what we call truly a "Dream Team!"
Its damage control, Elon isnt winning over the people with money that can afford to buy the CT, he is hero among the uneducated poor people that live on social welfare.
Persons available for video is Me ne blown Sandbagging Monro an Tesla TEAM CAPTAINS……….. let me remind u Sandy Monro has a lifelong experience at workin ice engines…… so he gets a pass for dropping the damm ball at a team members feet
What I love about this interview is that you can easily tell that every team worked on this together as a team and each had a voice in the final design. It wasn’t dictated by any one group and forced on the other teams to “make it work”.
These are the conversations that show how far ahead Tesla are in the game. While 98% of people only see the vehicle from an aesthetic point of view, whats going on underneath it all is an incredible step forward in Engineering and tech!
superbeam i make for tesla model S plaid is mostly made by robots .. i feed a robot basically now (shorts as proof).... also make parts for Honda suv bumpers, and corvettes... among many more. Tesla and especially Honda area are big time mostly robotic workers now..
I'm trying to help people understand this on Facebook. They literally LITERALLY cannot get over the looks of the Cybertruck. So, hopefully ye have a better luck with that than me
It’s just like what ford said about the horse. People don’t know what they want. Same thing about what people said about the iPhone vs black berry. Let’s watch all of these new EV’s come out. ICE IS DONE
Hands down best episode thus far. The access to the minds at Tesla that was afforded to Sandy is a testament to not only the respect others have for his knowledge but the unprecedented transparency that Tesla leadership is willing to share which stems from the corporate culture that has been developed. It is heartening to see an American enterprise being a thought leader despite numerous economic and political hurdles. Hats off to both you and Tesla!
@@dertythegrower Well, considering they openly share most of their patents, that’s not really a big deal. They’re encouraging copying. Look at the document they shared on the 48V architecture.
Economic & political hurdles?? Our government is literally writing policy and handing out taxpayer money by the truckloads propping up the EV industry.
i love that each of the Tesla crew got to show off their baby and it's a joy to see the pride they have in what their teams have brought to the world. Than you Lars, Franz, Drew, Pete, David for sharing your time with us. Thanks Sandy for your eyes going wide at some of the revelations.
The candid nature of their answers was astounding. They didn't have to worry about giving away something proprietary because they knew other manufacturers are to lazy and/or incompetent to steal from them. By the time they did, Tesla would probably be doing something better.
This is like a psychedelic trip for Sandy, having this first hand walkthrough with some of the most key players and being able to ask them questions in real time. Happy for you Sandy!! 🎉🎉🎉
For me as an engineer and product designer, this was extremely inspiring. And it is a pleasure to see that this masterpiece has been created under the leadership of a team of such humble, open and competent people. Even if I, as a European, don't find the Cybertruck too significant as a product: what Tesla has achieved here in terms of design and technology goes far beyond the vehicle class - I would say far beyond the vehicle industry.
I am glad that your comment is visible and not lost to the algorithms. I am finding the comments here just as interesting as the video. And your comment alludes to the fact that this goes well beyond the product--it's the process of Tesla being so transparent and generous. These engineers are absolutely wonderful and aren't trying to dumb down the things they say; they are treating the audience like adults. Tesla is one of the most generous corporations that has ever existed (giving away most of their trade secrets for free). This video will inspire millions of young people to want to study engineering.
It's unfortunate the Cybertruck's controversial exterior design has detracted from the absolute world-class engineering happening at Tesla. It's exciting to think about how all this trickle-down technology will make their next-gen affordable vehicle unstoppable once it enters the market. Bravo
@@vinny9152 Not really. Tesla will refine all this tech - 48V, SDN, 800V, all-wheel steering, steer by wire...and then put into ints new models and refresh. They can't do that in an existing model!
It's by no means a "masterpiece", this channel cannot address the problems, they are in the pocket of Tesla. You get no access to Tesla if you are critical in any way of their product. But the CT is rife with problems. Watch other sources and coverage as well, get a balanced media diet.
As an investor, technical guy into autos, that is the info I’m looking for. That was amazing. Really brings to light how advanced the cyber truck is compared to existing ICE vehicles. Surprising Tesla was so open and sharing about so much of the ins and outs that would have taken so much effort to design.
They've learned from experience, that legacy OEMs literally aren't capable of doing what they're doing. I've heard a few analysts, like Sandy, describe the relationship between corporate structure, and what kind of products can be produced. In order for another OEM to even begin to copy this stuff, they will first have to close the corporate office and open a new one, and lay off or reassign every member of the design, engineering, marketing and executive staff.
No need to not tell openly. Every OEM will do engineering analysis and hire firms like Munro to do teardown and reverse engineer. So they will know every detail. This way, each interested customer and journalist gets the information.
Quite likely the coolest Munro episode ever. What a team. And in Part Two: -What were some of the most difficult/contentious decisions? -Which process changes were hardest to implement? -On a day to day basis, how do you all integrate so effectively as a team? -What would you say were Elon's key contributions? -Were there any pleasant surprises from this project, or any unexpected trouble spots? -How do you foresee the ramp proceeding? -(And how good is 'boat mode'?!)
Tbf, for over a decade they've been begging the industry to copy them, but nope. Conversely look how fast Chinese EV's have evolved, they own their market and the legacies have to basically quit that market with their tails tucked. When will these delusional legacies learn their lessons?
The mission of replacing 2,000,000,000 ICE vehicle fleet means even if every vehicle being manufactured worldwide were electric, it would take 20 years to do. Tesla has been trying to bring these OEMS on board for almost 15 years now.
As much as the cyber truck is an absolute game changer for those that care to take time to appreciate the research and development thats gone into it, i can’t help but think that what they have learned by building this is going to make the model 2 an absolute world beater. i will bet that when it is released other manufacturers will virtually throw their arms in the air and admit defeat. The revolution is about to hit warp speed.
@@nielsvandenkieboom5034they won't, they risk Osborning themselves too much. The model 2 will be an "iphone" kind of launch, between unveling and 1st deliveries there will probably be less than 3 months, probably even less than 1 month. Or ypu risk having too much backlog and the Osbourne effect
This is just awesome! Ford sponsors this. Sandy was so freaked out he wasn’t gonna get a chance to show the innards for years. And Tesla threw him a bone. They didn’t give him a Cyber Truck to tear down. But they gave him a torn down Cyber Truck tour WITH the minds that designed it . And these guys man. These guys were thick as thieves. 😅 You can just sense the pride in their work. The joy they have at finally being able to share it. Their absolute confidence in what they’ve built and how they’ve built it. They were straight up gloating when presenting their work. 😂😂😂 And they deserve to. Tons of brilliance went into the design. HOW vehicles are made is going to forever change because of their work. As suppliers begin retooling, the entire market’s gonna have to shift. I have no doubt, as they retool S3XY to continue their relentless innovation, well see it begin to adopt many of these systems designed for Cyber Truck. The absolute efficiency they perform with. (Paraphrasing: “Since we have track mode already we started with that and gave Cyber Truck ‘Baja Mode’.) Rather than start from scratch because “model S is a car, not a truck. The same profile won’t work. They’re too different,” they started with the work they’d already done. It could’ve been a waste of time. But it wasn’t. Even if it had been though. The amount of time wasted to test it would be far less than the amount spent stating optimizations from scratch. Great product. Great video. Thanks Tesla Team. Thanks Munro Team.
As a network engineer, the network side change inside the cybertruck is mind blowing. A gigabit, effectively token ring circuit set for connectivity is absolutely insane compared to the garbage bus in every other car.
Why overcomplicate things? CanBUS has been around since '86 and is still more than enough for automotive use. You don't need gigabit networking to turn on the lights.. Stick to standards or improve them slowly, this is a lot of safety items.
I'm thrilled to watch this - it's truly one of the best Tesla videos ever. Too often, people associate Tesla solely with Elon, whether positively or negatively. Yet, there are brilliant minds and genuinely nice people like the ones featured in this video, diligently working to propel the industry forward. Thank you Munro and thank you Tesla.
"We split the battery in two". Absolutely the most underrated comment. While being super a super obvious solution, it's just next level way to approach the problem.
This literally may be the best interview Sandy or anyone has ever done at Tesla…. Holy shit, that was an amazing amount of information and insight into where the automotive world needs to go.
@@KsazDFW Apart from curious new production processes which I'm sure would allow Tesla to sell this at a healthy profit, I don't see what's so revolutionary about it? How is this the answer to any of the questions and issues personal mobility is facing today? I think it's rather out of touch. Cool truck for influencers and if you're getting shot at during the apocalypse. I get the feeling Tesla fans aren't car people, hence they treat any new feature in a Tesla to be groundbreaking, even if it has been around for a while already. All we've seen so far hints at just an ordinary unibody spaceframe, the 'exoskeleton' bit sounds like pure marketing and people will gobble it up.
@@DimitarStanev so you didn't watch the video ?!!! Let me give you a few key points: 48V instead of 12V, ether loop instead of can bus, steer by wire instead of a physically connected steering rack, rear wheel steering (which isn't new, but only really has been implemented once in a car before), a unique stainless steel alloy, that is highly corrosion resistant and largely bullet proof. That's just for starters. You also haven't seen the video, when Sandy interviewed Elon. Because you would understand then, why they could go all out on innovation with the Cybertruck opposed to other models.
Sandy is an absolute class act. Even the little things, like how he makes time to thank everyone. Makes him a super loveable guy. I have been consuming all the heavy tech Cybertruck content so far, and this video is has to be the best deep dive. Hagerty was good but this access and Q&A panel was awesome. Elon should have had these guys on stage for 30mins to talk and Q&A. Good to see a strong leadership bench. This is actually a great recruitment ad for working at Tesla tbh, the high level of engineering competence really shines through
It strikes that much of the info Sandy would have gleaned from a tear down was spoon fed to him in this video! Now it gives me way more patience for actual tear down. This is like a “Teardown Lite”!
We non paying "customers" never see a complete teardown. We only see the freely available summary. Munro makes many hundreds of thousand profit with every teardown. And i guess Tesla vehicles are their top jobs.
Absolutely incredible. You also get a feel for the culture of cooperation these folks have to have with each other to be able to play in the sandbox across different functions to make something like this possible.
@@TheRealYaro Nope, I'm just not a delusional man-child. Tesla are literally the worst rated car manufacturer when it comes to quality control, they are far behind several other companies in their self driving tech (oh and they have legally admitted they will never get past level 2 autonomy), and since this pile of trash was released there have been countless problems reported with it. That's why Ford are advertising on this video, in fact if anything there's a ford ad on this video because this guy signed a deal to produce sponsored videos and this was just one of the videos made in the contracts time frame.
These are the smartest guys in the business. Sandy is in engineering heaven with these engineers. All these engineers should be super proud of this product.
This is the best content Munro and Associates have posted to date... in my opinion. Built on decades of Sandy's experience, a risk in starting a RU-vid channel when the benefits were not clear, and the masterstroke to invite top Tesla executives to talk about the topics they love so much. Stunningly good content. Thank you Sandy and crew.
The amount of natural respect these guys have for each other sets them apart from almost every other company. Most times it’s ego’s battling but this is different. That’s why Tesla is in front of the game so much. Down to earth people with so much knowledge.
This is also the first time that American engineers have been leading in automotive engineering since the 1960's. As it turns out, if American companies actually "allow" their engineers to design things properly, they can build amazing cars, as they did back in the 1950's and late 1960's.
This shows exactly why Tesla is in the lead, their top people, respectively all sat down to freely share all of their hard work and diligence. They don’t care about keeping secrets, they care about moving the state of the art forward. Thx Sandy & team!
Secrets are for those trying to get an edge not the undisputed leader. Doesnt even matter at this point if all of their data/research got leaked. By the time you manage to prototype, build, sell a product, their teams had another few years to keep on adding to the headstart. Making their older stuff look truly old in comparison.
Tesla is in the lead you got to be kidding me they make a pickup truck that took about 4 years instead of not saying a damn word till the thing was completely done why don't we wait until this truck has proven itself over time it hasn't even been out long enough and everybody's jumping the gun man the Cyber truck is so goddamn good give it some time people it might not last a year everybody wants to jump the gun about this how much is Elon paying you people
Awesome video, thank you team Sandy! Yet, as a retired IT guy, I’m somewhat sadden that intangible software can’t be “plop” on the desk and appreciate for their design beauty as well. 😊
I want to give thanks to you and the Tesla team for the deep dive. It was extremely fascinating and it's really a marvel at how candid and excited they were to share all their hard work.
Active noise cancellation. Active suspension. Rear wheel steering. Stainless steel shell. Electric. I suddenly want to go off-roading. Those guys must be so stoked. What the heck is next?
Sandy is really good at facilitating the gap between industry leading engineers and meat heads like me. Dare I say at this stage in his life he has found himself. This is truly a gift to people/investors like me! This panel of gifted engineers aren’t really gods, just really really gifted and talented. I and speaking for many others, thank you for your dedication and hard work, ALL this is a gift to humanity. Bravo.
This is actually unprecedented. Not just the engineering. But the process here of explaining how everything works. This is the first time in 75 years, where consumers are being treated like adults. Briggs and Stratton lawnmowers now refuse to tell you how much horsepower they have (they removed the HP labels from the engine and won't allow you to know what you're buying). Tesla is doing the opposite, revealing nearly everything, and not afraid of potential scrutiny. Young people will learn more from this video than they will in 10 years of public school.
Wow Sandy got the time of 5 of Tesla’s executives. That shows how much respect Tesla has for Sandy and Munro and associates. Great video thanks Tesla and Sandy.
Wow, blown away with the access, time & respect offered to Sandy (& therefore us) by the Tesla A Team here. They are so humble & giving of their precious time here, this feels like a huge shift in the reporting of a new vehicle - never have I seen such detailed, time-consuming, honest access to a design team & their ground-breaking product. As someone recently said "the future, now looks like the future". I thought he was speaking of the CyberTruck, but it's waaay beyond a single product. Tesla: Where, the future doesn't wear ties.
Outstanding Engineering from Manufacturing to Electronics to Software. Great interview 👏 As an engineer myself, I'm thrilled to see this. The comprehensive engineering knowledge of execs, from start to end, is key. It's why companies like Tesla lead in innovation - their tech-savvy leadership sets the bar high in the automotive industry.
These people are the heroes whose hard work and dedication make the product world leading. I could see how much they enjoyed being able to show you the work they and the team behind them have done to make the Cybertruck. Thanks All.
"I've been driving a Wrangler since forever, but ever since I bought the new one, what a disaster....I can't believe they put that thing out." Savage, Sandy, savage.
@@radicalrick9587 Sandy seemed to be suggesting that the Cybertruck is going to replace Jeep Wranglers as the vehicle for outdoor types, but I don't really see his argument other than the exoskeleton can take a beating. I feel like the Cybertruck would get stuck in muddy/sandy conditions a lot more.
Kudos to the Tesla team for sharing all these interesting design insights. Makes us Tesla owners and future owners that much more excited to drive these things around knowing how much work and thought went into them. Keep it up Tesla! Great job Munro Team!
Tesla’s top 5 Engineers with Sandy Munro, showing him around the brand new individual components of the Cybertruck. Possibly the coolest video on RU-vid.
The fact that ford sponsored this is a really cool move on their part. Lots of respect for them and it actually really helps me believe in their own product confidence and engineering.
Smart move. Those wanting a Cybertruck and ordering now will go to the back of the queue and need to wait at least 3/4 years. Could be driving a Lightening in the mean-time….
Ford sponsored this? Did I miss that part somewhere in the video? Can someone explain why they did that? Is Ford working with Tesla in any way, other than using the Tesla chargers at select locations?
@@RitalieNo. They sponsered this video on Sandy's channel as in paid money to put up an ad. Tesla is giving Sandy the interviews and access due to his reach and respect they have for his fair assessments.
@@phxees It takes a bigger man to swallow his pride and do what’s right for his company. Jim Farley has stepped up and acknowledged what needs to be done. Tesla cannot do it alone, we all need Ford, GM etc to step up and make EV’s that people actually want to buy. Tesla’s gift of the 48v plans to everyone, for free, is an exceptional act of philanthropy.
Can you imagine how many other Car manufacturers are here with pen and paper taking note and learning Tesla trick? Tesla is so confident in their business, they're literally given away all their secrets on RU-vid. Boss moves!
this is Sandy’s all-time best vid. a collection of rockstar engineers/designers, all of whom were very articulate, passionate, and personable. great props and venue as well.
This is awesome, too be fair I've been critical of Elon lately but that's just Elon. No one denies just how brilliant he is and the team of people he has around him. Great videos lately Sandy, making me remember why I love Tesla.
This is a fucking dope quality content !!! Thanks Sandy and all the Tesla elite folks for sparing their time for letting people know what they have done in engineering a future car. No bull shit no marketing stuff just plain straight explanation on what have been done. Hats off to Tesla team and Sandy!
This is a rare and exceptional video. First Ford sponsoring a Tesla engineering showoff is something else. But they invited someone, who does teardowns of their cars, analysses the engineering and sells it to the competition. Then the leading engineers and head of each department is willing to sit there an hour and explain every detail Sandy could ask. And not only are they "just there" they even don't interrupt each other and show interest in each other departments and field of expertise. Man people don't understand what they did and overcome with the cybertruck in just 4 years. I wish I could have a deep dive of each departement. Thanks to all of them.
As a private recent retail long-term goal investor, I find the department heads' chat with Munro epic full of info easter eggs as a layman. To Sandy and a big Thank you to the heads of the Tesla team for being available, what you have and are creating, you have every right to be proud into the next century!
Super-informative and so generous of Tesla execs to share with the world! Being a completely new platform, Cybertruck is able to demonstrate Tesla's impressive engineering prowess!
So wonderful that this team is allowed to take the time to share their expertise in each element of development of the Cybertruck, and technology going into each Tesla going forwards. I'm sure many of thr OEM will be taking note of technology, and integrated approach. I was so impressed with understanding that each team member had of the others requirements. Great work Tesla, and fab video Sandy & Munro Live 😊
All 5 of them are such impressive executives. They sound extremely knowledgeable (not that I'm an expert), are so down to earth, relatable and very well spoken. Good chess move to "expose" them and Tesla's technology and thinking process. Hugely impressive.
I think it is a testament to the transformational nature of this product, that I’m neither an engineer nor a car guy, and I watched this video with complete curiosity and fascination, and with awe for the innovation accomplished by this team. I want one of those!
I like that they are engineers but they also understand the business and business decisions, and can almost answer to all the decisions that were made by the higher ups. The whole organism is well integrated. This is rare indeed.
This is a FANTASTIC video. Someone with Sandy's knowledge talking with these execs, which properly understand their stuff ... an amazing video. Simply fantastic.
It I ever said anything bad about Sandy (and I have) I take it back. Brilliant video and fantastic details about my next, and probably last vehicle. Thanks to the Tesla team for your remarkable transparency, it's something only Tesla would do and demonstrates you absolute dominance in this fast growing market segment. 👍👍
WOW! Just wow. Obviously Elon was impressed enough with his recent interview by Sandy that he gave the go ahead to allow these senior executives to share such incredible details about the Cybertruck architecture. This was definitely a "Move The Industry Forward" initiative. Also, regarding the design architecture, why is it that many people tend to find the styling of the Cybertruck bizarre but millions of people fly thousands of mile to look in awe at the Pyramids which have that triangular appearance?
This one was recorded first, before Sandy drove the car and before the Elon interview. Tesla said it was going to try out advertising, this is it, the leaders speaking to the masses through Sandy's channel, cybertruck will get a lot of sales and media articles through this video, and, the other OEMs get a kick up the butt from it, and they evolve their offerings which pushes Tesla's mission... Remember that is to accelerate the transition to EVs, not to be the dominant force in EV sales.
Wow Holy-Batmobile! I just realised that Sandy is sitting down with Teslas Top Table! Wow, the Franz says ‘if we do this with another vehicle!’ That’s not insignificant…..!

I’m so impressed by the engineering. This is next level design and execution. I’m seriously thinking purchasing this next gen vehicle. Do I need it, no, do I want it, yes. Nothing on the market like it.
