Let's start this with a graphic illustration shall we?

Tesla Cybertruck Insane Technology Bandwagon - The Font! hello


I have completed the glyph set from the Cybertruck logo and made them into a font people can use.
I have named the font, "INSANE TECHNOLOGY BANDWAGON".
Using the 6 letters available (C, Y, B, R, T, K), I have extrapolated something which I feel is thematically similar.
I don't know if Tesla hired a font designer to create an entire alphabet, or just a logo designer who stylized those six letters (I suspect the latter because there are some inconsistencies when you look up close).

Either way Tesla has not made that font available so I have taken the liberty of creating this one.
It's an interesting and challenging character set as it prioritizes style over readability, and it is hard to get that balance right. With that in mind I developed alternates for each character, one that leans towards style, and then one that leans towards legibility, for different use cases.
These different versions can be accessed by using lower or upper case.

(The 6 official Tesla letters do not have alternates because they are considered definitive.)

I haven't bothered with punctuation or special characters beyond the question mark and number set.
There is also something wrong with the lower case "r" but you can just use upper case as it is the same.

As for style guides and usage, Teslas was limited to CYBRTRK, so you can follow that style of vowel deletion and minimization, or you can write out entire words, it's up to you.
Hell you can write a thesis with it for all I care!

This absolutely rocks. Next would be a font that could be read only by special glasses included with CT.
