Cybertruck Front Casting Analysis (and Frunk Implications) - 3 vs 2 Chickens

I don't think I've seen those pictures before. Kudos.
If you get by Omaha, I'll buy you a beer. Or two. I mean, great analysis work.

Not outside the realm of possibility! I drive up to South Dakota every year for pheasant season - though I prefer the beauty of the central Sandhills route

Every time I go pheasant hunting, all I find are deer... When I go deer hunting? Well, yeah, pheasants but I DO actually find deer as well. Did most of my hunting when I lived in Montana. Didn't hunt when I lived in North Dakota for some reason. I'm not sure why.

Great shot that gives a sense of the max width of Frunk floor space between wheel wells

just forward it those wheel wells, it could widen, but quickly hits the front of the hood or trim left/right

That open floor confirms a structural battery pack similar to the 4680 Austin made Model Y.

Found this on Twitter today.

Can’t not put these here for posterity!

notice the rough shape of the upper rim of the “tub” that will be the Frunk trim. The likely gives a feel for what will be the uppermost widest/deepest portion of the Frunk, slightly reducing in size as nears the floor of the

also interesting to note the underside of the Frunk hood appears to have a stamped steel backing with bracing - also at its front forming the cavity where RDL wiring/housing etc sits forward of

so basically the frunk does start several inches forward of the windshield seam, basically with the foremost faces of the wheel well forming the 1/2 the back wall of the frunk

the trim tub width would be bounded by the panel brackets in each front corner

unclear if there will be a whole lot of sub-frunk, given the location of the air-intake/radiator

Floor print about like so

About what I’d said, right?

 

[Mini2nut]

Thanks to the stubbier front end the frunk will most likely be on the small side. Hopefully it can double as a cooler with a water drain on the bottom.

Extends into front left and right cavities, as speculated.

Perhaps the lining will also snugly follow the hardware and create extra space under the windshield ?

Yeppo
But it is open at the front, not quite a tub. Extended space unlikely.

looks like its enough to fit a golf bag

the hood ‘s internal forward contours form the front of the “tub”

Closed, it’s a tub with a lid that is both the top and front of the tub
