Personally, I'm dissapointed that a technological marvel that the CT is, the designers couldn't find a better solution for the sun visors. The flapping cadboard just doesn't cut it.

Since no one has mentioned it, you can see the ceiling lights through the roof.

Clearly this means the "glass* on the early proto freebies are just wraps.

Are you saying the Cybertruck prototype didn't have a glass roof? It definitely did have a glass roof.

I really like how wipable that dash looks. I have 4 kids so I am somewhat a wiping pro. And I believe in child labor so for their sake I am glad the interior looks wipable. That should cut at least $1 off their allowance and chore of cleaning dads truck.

The first thing that caught my eyes was the door hinges. Look awful small and only a single bolt attachment to the door. Unless the door has a matching adjustable hinge plate, not going to be much room for adjustment. Heck all modern cabinet doors have European adjustable hinges that also allow for quick release. Great for when I need to crawl up in the cabinets as a plumber.

But looking at the 2 hinges look awful basic and relative lightweight for a heavy truck door and stainless panel. Am I wrong or just overthinking from my perspective.

i thought the same thing about the B pillar hinges inititally. they are incredibly small. i guess if they are plate steel or possibly even stainless they will be substantial but no adjustement appears to be available.

That was a joke about the wraps.

But what I meant, was that it appear the glass is switchable glass, as very few shots from the outside let you see through.

I agree that the rear door support hinges look rather wimpy. Only one bolt per hinge as well.

This will ruffle some feathers but the simplicity looks in line with what i would expect to see in a removable door. I wonder if they made it so simple so that it can be easily removed.

Maybe easier to install
