The Real Reason Tesla Developed The Cybertruck! 

Tesla have the most faulths of all the big car brands with small stuff, elecrical errors beeing one of the biggest.

@@mikevik100I’ve done a research paper on EV’s and don’t think this is true. Care to explain specifically what you are referring to?

@@mikevik100 yeah. Didn’t think so. Quit talking out of your ass.

The principles of design are more like those from the 60's. Trucks didn't leave the heavy bodies behind because they were expensive, they left them behind because the bodywork absorbing energy in an impact is important for human safety. As a bonus a light body on a heavy frame is also a lot easier to repair than a unibody. Cybertruck is throwing safety and repairability away, but accidents aren't gonna stop next year, hell cars get hit parked at stoplights.

@@jasonhsellors trucks used to have tremendous structural integrity in the heavy sheet metal cabs. Taking out the strength made them safer. Strength ≠ safety.

Unless it bolts together like a giant lego car so the whole section of structure can be fairly easily replaced (which I doubt is the case). Also the structural battery pack is very hard/expensive to replace. Building disposable throw away electric cars isn't very good for "the environment" but of course EV's never really were about helping the "environment." Just more BS marketing ploys, people bought Prius's thinking they were helping to save the world (creating Southpark Smug emissions) Having the battery pack serve double duty helps the manufacturer save money on building costs but actually hurts the consumer. It's not actually saving that much weight, especially considering how much heavier EV's are to begin with. I love how they present the idea of the integrated battery as somehow helpful to the buyer/consumer. It's also not that "innovative" forward thinking...building a gas tank into the fame of a motorcycle is more innovative. Since the in-frame gas tank won't wear out, causing you to have to replace the entire motorcycle frame when it goes bad.

Good thing this is cold-rolled steel!

Crumple zones reduce the probability of serious injury, or death - how much do you pay in the USA for hospital stays, or even simple health services, and what coverage do you have if you have to take time off work? Seems like a bit more expense in repairing them, or having them written off, is a compariive bargain. Same with a moderate increase in insurance premiums - you DO have insurance, don't you? You are aware of the widespread use of cast alloys in any modern vehicle, aren't you? The cast pieces are actually a much simpler and easier repair option - the real problem is the hard points, but those can also serve as anchore points in chassis machines, so that's 50-50. However, the biggest problem here is exactly that "sheet metal" as it's forming the exo-skeleton - basically an exposed monocoque - and these are particularly vulnerable to structural vulnerabilities as any damage is to the primary vehicle structure, rather than a 'sacrificial' structure that isn't critical to the structural strength. You may be familiar with the trick where one can (if one isn't too heavy) stand on a beer or soft drink can with it on end, without it being crushed - that's like the intact structure of the truck - but if one then taps the side of the can it alters the forces stressing it's shape end it immediately collapses - en exaggeration, but same principles for a damaged exoskeleton I would also remind you that "sheet metal" vehicles are rarely "repaired" to close to the original condition, whereas a replaced alloy part is in original condition.

@@michellesmith4133 I think I'm in love 😍you hit (almost) all the triggers 🥰 I got a bit put off by your testicles 😮 when you have a female nom-de-plume and avatar, though - but then we live in interesting times, don't we? Oh, yes, you're probably right, I have been complimented on the relative smoothness of mine when tea-bagged, but then you can't really trust those nubian slave girls after they reach menarch, can you?

We are already in the world of relatively minor accidents totally vehicles. Not because of major damage but because insurance companies are not willing to risk getting sued because they repaired a vehicle that then had another accident that could possibly be traced back to the original damage. This is why there is such a large "salvage" vehicle market that has sprung up. "Airbag deployed? Total it!" You're not wrong in your assessment, it's just a moot point these days.

The Cybertruck is not street legal in Europe ( if that matters ) as in Europe it would fail many of the increasingly stringent pedestrian and cyclist protection standards. So no, this design would not be a design chosen if you care about fellow people sharing the roads and you want to sell it in Europe and other countries that have the same regulations.

@@andersdannstedt5825 In North America what will happen is over 5 years the actual safety record of the design will influence insurance costs and if it's significantly worse than other designs then NTSB will bring in fines and/or spearhead laws which will influence industry changes. We err on the side of freedom over here, and our safety results aren't really worse. Largely because the auto makers in Europe have been faking their safety tests, along with their emissions tests, lol. The freedom to innovate has also allowed safety advancements here which weren't even allowed in Europe. ie airbags were originally invented and introduced in North America as a convenience option to replace seatbelts. Can you imagine EU allowing that? lol.

Contrary to popular belief, people do not ever share the highways with vehicles ever and in case your not aware, the CyberTruck is Pedestrian friendly other wise there would be absolutely no chance of it ever being allowed onto the highways in the USA or anywhere else for that matter.

@@andersdannstedt5825 Yeah, so, maybe they're not going to sell it in Europe. So, it doesn't meet all regulatory requirements everywhere. So what.

@@andersdannstedt5825 I'm sure the customer base they're targeting is allocated more to north america, Oceania/Australia and Asia.

I was also thinking about that. Only one shown so far, but excluded from the video, are the collapsing windows 😉 Jokes asides it would be interesting to know about its safety features.

@@TheRealStructurer there are none

The Cybertruck will be safer than any truck ever built with the bullet proof exoskeleton

@@reicherk If it’s too rigid it will not absorb the force and harm not only people in the Tesla, but also the other part. But I trust Elon to make it safe 👍🏻

Personally I believe police departments are going to scoop these things up. You'll never get robbed at a charging station unless it's by the cops 😂😂😂

Hope it doesn't catch on fire and burn your house down while you're sleeping, or catch fire on the side of the road and require hours to put out the fire, or crash during "autopilot" and create a multi car pileup! Or not actually exist and work properly, like solar tiles or hyperloop

@@O1OO1O1 The LiFePO4 batteries that the Cybertruck will use don't catch on fire. If you don't know what that is, then you're definitely lost. Take your diesel Ram truck and shove it where the sun don't shine, kid.

​@@1ukjunglednbraverthat's what we want to see

It will form a black hole.

@1ukjunglednbraver the metal will bend or shatter,tesla can make cuts on the interior of the plates to brake and crumple like crumplezones

​im waiting for crash test results. then i might be sold.

It can tow a much larger load. But it’s not meant to be a work truck, so I think it’s still a win when compared to a RAM 1500 which still isn’t the best work truck available.

@@derrickstevenson5009 by definition trucks were for work. The video here, talked about how Cybertruck would be the truck that would up the game in every aspect. Cyber truck does have great payload and towing capacity, but falls short of towing that 300 miles. Closer to 200 to 250 miles.

maybe if you said hybrid SUV but it's a truck and trucks are functionally created to do specific tasks really really well, like towing or hauling.

Maybe they are counting on the other car to absorb the impact for them???

It is as affordable as similar products from GM and Ford, wait a year for video's of winter performance and see what others discover, then you have your answer.

As long as you crash into another modern squishy vehicle you'll be fine.

Tesla uses advanced airbags. It’s very safe, don’t even need seat belts

Also can’t see it passing European ‘pedestrian’ regs.

Probably 90% of 1/2 ton trucks are not used for work anymore. They're just personal vehicles that occasionally carry something. Cyber Truck bed is a lot bigger than most people think. I still think it's ugly and I don't want to buy one...but it's growing on me. lol

It should be called the Smart Truck!

Form at times follows function. Tesla is after a function and as is pointed out, the general form is set by that. The other thing that most people miss is the massive advance that the 4680 batteries with their tab less design brings. There are some good videos that explain that advance. Again that is design following function. The purpose of the batteries is to deliver massive amounts of current and the tab less design is great for that.

If you really think anyone has gone into "outer" space, you have been duped.

@@fireballxl-5748 Don't look up!

@@TravisAnderson79 Don't do the research....like "looking up" Airy's Failure...the science experiment that was to prove the earth moved through "outer" space and FAILED.....meaning the earth was PROVED to be STATIONARY. The reason that experiment is not taught at universities...it goes against the dogma of modern "science". I'm serious about you NOT researching the subject. Unless you have a very strong constitution, such a realization will cause a paradigm shift in your thoughts and it may just break you psychologically. Travis, I'm in my mid-sixties. When younger, I tested only 2 points below genius. (never could make those last 2 points! Dang!) Why does water ALWAYS find it's level? That is, no curve. Lakes show no curvature, none. Long distance photography proves no curve. Radar shows no curve. Lasers go far past the distance they should be able to target because the curve should interfere, yet it doesn't....because it doesn't exist. No surveyor in the world accounts for "curvature" ... none. Ships can paint targets well past the range science says they should. And I'm just getting started. Mark Twain said it's harder to convince a man he has been fooled than to fool him in the first place. (how true!) That is because of ego involved. No one wants to admit he has been duped his entire life on such a simple thing. The atomic bomb tests of the sixties were not testing what you think. There is a firmament over the earth (a dome, if you will) and the nations were trying to poke a hole or crack in it. Even if they failed at that they were able to map its' shape.

It also doesn't hurt that such a design for an indestructible truck guaranteed to last a million miles would be invaluable on a Mars base in the future. Many of Elon's projects have enough wiggle room to be quite useful on Mars, like the Boring Company and the Tesla Robots.

Are you dumb or smocking something!? The best truck ever made is chassis on frame! It allows basically everything from chassis extension to payload upgrade! Significantly better customizations and equipments like cranes, and many other things like RV conversions, ambulance, rescue vehicle……

Let’s not forget normal trucks that comes in single oder double cab longer or shorter beds…… the cubits utter crap!

In 2027

There is a LOT that is misleading in this video.

So you didn’t watch the video?

@@500846 No, the video didn't explain that there IS going to be a subframe under the exoskeleton for Cybertruck. You can see it in different renderings that Tesla has put out since the launch date. Most big fans of Cybertruck (I have 2 preorder reservations and am a $TSLA shareholder) have seen that it will have an aluminum subframe made from one or several large castings. That's what the giga press is for, to cast aluminum, not to press out the stainless steel body.

@@Nphen watch it again….

Go watch Sandy munro’s videos on the 2022 Texas built Model Y. There are sacrificial parts that protect the casting in low speed collisions, just like any other vehicle. In more intense collision some parts of the casting could be broken but easily welded. If the subframe is damage such that it needs replaced the accident will destroy the vehicle in any case and you will probably be injured or worse as the vehicle sacrifices itself to save you.

Why not Ferrari gets over One Hundred Thousand dollars for an old car frame?

After an accident this type of construction would no longer be legal to drive in countries where they test vehicles every two years for safety. In usa no one cares about safety, so no big deal. 2023 01 14 10:19

That's because pickups have a lot of functional attributes, like the ability to put things in the bed with a lift.

For a reason obviously , they function like trucks .

Except all other planets and moons don't have out atmosphere and most importantly our magnetosphere.... so even with a space suit, and this truck... you'll still not live long on the surface. Does no one realize this VERY obvious fact? Xrays, gamma rays, UV rays, Alpha and beta particles... the temperatures on other celestial bodies... heck... the temperature swings from in the sunlight to not in sunlight... holy crap!!! The caustic gasses on all other celestial bodies... this will most certainly NOT survive outside Earth... heck it will barely survive on planet Earth for a few years. Are you kidding me?

A container with flat surfaces does not lend itself well to being a good pressure vessel. To replicate earth's atmospheric pressure, the pressure would have to be about 14.7 psig inside the truck. So a flat surface (such as a windshield) that is 2 feet x 6 feet would have an outward force on it of approximately 25,400 pounds. That would blow the windshield off the truck and break the windshield in the process.

@@MrHighAnxiety63 Not the reason its separate on normal pickups. I believe its because of the flexing in the frame. If the body was hole it would bend going on rough roads.

Actually I've never seen a bed come off the frame in an accident. Also, an F150 has one of the most inaccessible beds among brands due to side panel height. That said, I'm impressed with Elon's truck.

If you glue it together the different metals aren't really touching. The aluminum castings should act as the crumple zones. There's no engine to deal with unlike conventional vehicles.

Tesla engineers are pretty good at designing crumple zones… I’m sure they’ll manage.

The structural 4680 battery in the standard range model Y was fairly easy to remove but it didn't follow it so closely on Munro Live. I think it was bolted to the other parts all along making it structural - it wasn't impossible to get out without tearing everything up. Modern li-ion batteries lose like 10% range but stabilizes. If you have that wiggly room in your need it can be a long time before replacing. The number of charge cycles and the range gives that 500 000 miles ought to be no major problem then the majority of them. I have a robotic lawn mower that also uses li-ion (10x 18650 cells) battery. It's now at 2784 charge cycles after 6 summers (it basically charges 6 times a day when doing 24/7 so it rakes them up quicker than a car). That's the equivalent of well over 500k miles on a Tesla model 3 long range. So we have prior precedence (that's better than how a phone battery is abused) to predict how they will hold up. I don't have any battery electric car but watching the lawn mower work so well, without active thermal management of the battery and any kick ass battery management system as a Tesla makes me just shake the head when the naysayers say the battery will need replacing soon.

Retired military Aircraft Mechanic, (Aviation Structural Mech), this is like a Christmas Present.

I do a bit of machining. My machines are mostly antique that come to me junked. Have a 40" air over hydraulic press brake so I kind of enjoy bending sheet metal. People have no idea how impressive a 1/8" SS body will be. This could be the truck that gets handed down generation to generation . Just freshen the suspension and battery as required. In 10 or 20 years there will be after market electronics alongside rebuilt ones. Parts for this truck are going to be all over the aftermarket. We are about to witness a car cult larger than that of the VW Bug and Van. Unlike the VWs we will not waste out lives patching rusty sheet metal.

@@carholic-sz3qv that means ur normal pick-up truck offers nothing but crap too

It will do neither of those in the end.

Perhaps the interior of the shell of the pack can be removed and replaced. Not sure, but hopefully.

Agree, all things considered the cybertruck makes other electric trucks that are coming out these days look like vehicles from another century.

Along with the charging network, which is the reason I haven't bought a Rivian. Ford did a pretty good job with the Lightening from what I've been hearing...they all beat the pants off any ICE truck.

I never understood Europe's no sharp edge rule..... how many pedestrians are surviving a truck hitting them ?

There are real world prototype versions that have been driven and tested.

Thanks for adding your opinion tho, maybe check the facts before you do next time 😊

Americans stop the car and drive back, crushing any survivors of street accidents. That saves insurance payouts which come to millions if the body can still move..... Good points you make. Yanks just live in illusion-land in wooden huts that get blown away in a strong wind, but need three cars littering up the "yard" to go to the 'mall', to buy more crap for the mouths watching screens at home.

Hiya Chuck. 1. I do not think you understand the definition of “ingenious”. 1.a. Before you throw a big 🎉… please show us the truck. 😊

I'm pretty sure I heard Tesla will have smaller replacement pieces for repairs, no need to replace the whole piece. Much like how collision centers use a patch panel rather than replace an entire quarter panel.

"ordinary" cars are designed to collapse to absorb the forces in a crash while the passenger compartment is rigid to protect from parts entering (engine, etc.). If the whole body is rigid, the forces on the passengers will be much larger. All cars and trucks? need to be tested and get rated, in Europe with Euro NCAP. I will wait and see how the Cybertruck fares before speculating more. The Cybertruck is not street legal in Europe as it will not comply to the safety regulations such as the pedestrian and cyclist protection standards. It will be sold in the USA as many vehicles there are exempt from pedestrian protection protocols, but to be sold in Europe, changes to the body shape and materials are needed which will make the Cybertruck a completely different animal.

@@catsaregovernmentspies When designing parts a decision if the part is also to be a spare part is made. These spare parts have to be stored so they can be ordered and used when repairing. These parts also needs to be kept long after the model it was designed for has been replaced. This can be a considerable cost. The company I worked for, Scania (trucks) had to keep spare parts for 25 years in case of trucks for Nato countries. Customers usually get a little angry if their car/truck/ ... cannot be repaired 10 years after purchase. This means that special tools for repairing also need to be "spare parts". This is why one want as many parts to be "carry over" till the next generation/model, or at least the new parts can replace the old part. This is a design decision to reduce cost, otherwise the number of spare parts will grow over time which leads to high cost of keeping spare parts as they have been manufactured at a cost that that will not be refunded until the spare part is ordered and paid for.

Two layers of the stainless steel should be on the bottom to prevent penetration of the batteries by large or angular pieces of road debris.

I thought the same thing when I saw that in the video.... other than the passengers, it's the most crucial thing to protect, and in arguably the most impact prone and all around dangerous areas of a truck...

Best ranch truck ? You are delusional.

@@bobbybishop5662 Why do you feel that way? What prevents this truck from being ideal for a farm and ranch application? From my perspective it would be much better in many ways than any of the ranch trucks we have ever had.

Some people can’t get past what’s traditional. If it was good enough for gramps. It’s futuristic looking and it’s electric. One thing that would for sure hurt it as a ranch truck is the towing issue. So far electric trucks just can’t tow far enough.

To start with the average ranch truck would be a 3/4 or 1 ton truck with a 5th wheel capacity from 20000 to 32000 lbs capable of towing a stock trailer full of cattle of horses. The bed length is only around 6ft rather than a standard 8ft bed. Ranch truck are many times carrying a portable diesel welder and and or a diesel transfer tank holding up to 100 gal of diesel fuel for refueling in the field. The unibody construction isn't ideal for tough terrian especially when heavily loaded under towing situations. Ranch trucks typically get the crap best out them. I don't see it as much more than a city truck with different styling than what has be the norm for pickups. Personally I think it's about ugly as it could be.

@@RU-vidTookMyNickname.WhyNot yeah that's what I'm thinking too.

I have my doubts. Saying it's going to be the best and longest lasting truck is based on nothing but hopes and dream. I like CT but let's be real here, Teslas aren't close to be the best built vehicles out there, and Elon now has a great track record of over promising capabilities.

It will be out when everyone forgets about it. That way it's less embarrassing when it's shown to be total garbage (like the semi)

You will probably have to add a steel skid plate.

Aluminum works fine for off-roading too. Just has to be thicker than steel would, but is still lighter for thicker aluminum that provides the same strength.

I am sure the after market will step up with all sorts of off road accessories. Snow plow and winch mounts for the front end, Stainless, Aluminum or even titanium skid plates. Cow catchers, gun racks, roof racks, campers, over the bed snowmobile racks etc.
