Rollover Crash Tested Cybertruck w/ airbags deployed & smashed interior (back seat look)!

That crushed flat (vs curved) windshield is worse than I expected. Not liking that peak roof.
It looks like it could easily cave in since it is way flatter than a typical windshield.

you're wrong if it was a rollover it survived handidly. the peak of the exo absorbed most of the brunt.

Given what happens to most other pickups when they roll over, I think I will take the Cybertruck.

What are you smoking dude. Curved glass vs flat would hold up better? ? Yes curved steel and far more durable materials would hold up better curved vs flat. But glass, pfft.

Given the weight of the truck with the battery pack. There is no way a curved GLASS roof or windscreen hold up better under that pressure.
It actually did quite well considering.

Looks like there is a small opening behind the middle rear seat to the truck bed? Just for some lumber

The windscreen is slightly curved and not completely flat. Just like the front grill is round, and the CT sides are also curved so it bulges out at the doors.

Sorry. I realize not complete flat. I said this in that post to try to clarify: way flatter than a typical windshield.

Wow the backseat doors are so high up before there is window.

Poor kids will never be able to look out the window. This is gonna be a hard sell for my wife.

Considering how easily the passenger cabin gets crushed flat in regular trucks that roll/flip, this is a pretty awesome result for the cybertruck.

Epic photos! I'm trying to understand what we see in the bed. Is the midgate area NOT steel as we have seen in frames? It looks ripped apart.

The laminated SS exo did it's job.

Laminated exoskeleton now? That's a new sandwich.

It's how they mount the ss to the castings.

It's like the mustard delivery service of a sandwich.

Might be passive weight of gravity on the glass following the roll, glass is only held together by the interlayering as its now cracked thoroughly.

The BAW survives unscathed!
