Definitely no rear steering on this one.

It is likely older footage, but I donā€˜t think Iā€™ve seen this particular clip before.

It is striking how sharp the folds on the truck are. They donā€™t look like bends so much as sharp, crisp angles.

Only having two small white reverse lights around the plate at the center of the rear body way down low is strange and probably dangerous. The only person who can see you are in reverse is the guy right behind you. Everyone else not in line of sight to your license plate can't see an important cue. Most positions around a car aren't in line of sight if the rear plate. Seems like it should be next to the brake lights on the outer edges like every other car on earth.

One Cybertruck has the Model S type dash behind the yoke, the other Cybertruck did not.

No one not directly behind you needs to be blinded.

In the last part, with cover closed
Did that look like a mat glass? Like solar glass?
Maybe just me still dreaming, but the whole car looks amazing. I personally love the gap between bumper cover and body. As that penal gap is great to wash out mud and sand from trips.

I hope that contraption hanging off the rear is rated for dragging across rocks, because itā€™s really out there in the way of a decent departure angle.

Iā€™m slightly surprised by seeing the trailer pin connection down low. Normally itā€™s up by the license plate. When I worked for Ram I thought most manufacturers put it up there to keep it a little bit more protected from road dirt and grime.

This is a different prototype. That bumper looks beefy yet refined. I like it. Going forward it would act as a pretty good skid plate. Backing up it would dig into a bank.
