Powered Frunk In Action! Great shots!!

[Jon Snow]

IMO, the frunk is disappointingly small for such a massive vehicle. I feel like this wouldn't even fit a full load of groceries.

Seems about 2x bigger than a model S. Works for me.

Everybody wondering if the frunk is too small. Meanwhile, I'm here just happy to have a frunk (plus the extra storage under the vault) as I load up the groceries into the backseat of my Dodge Ram 1500 which has no frunk or trunk lol.

Side note: Not sure if it's just the angles of the photos I've seen of the frunk, but the lip between the floor of the frunk and the front opening looks pretty low; like, low enough to where things like groceries can fall out when you open the frunk if you happened to have braked hard during the preceding drive. I wonder if it's just the angle of the photos or if the production model will have a cargo net or something similar to prevent contents from sliding forward and falling out when you open it.

I assume Tesla moves the cabin forward to have more room for longer truck bed, 5.5' vs 6'. If they further sacrifice the legroom (from 86' to 79' front + rear), they could probably reach 6.5'.

No lip here.

Been loading groceries many times and upon opening at home have not had one issue with groceries from Sam's (so no bags, just stacked) falling out.

I haven't seen any power source in the pictures of the frunk. If that is the case, it is a big miss. I would like to lock up my tools and have the batteries charging there.

Top Gear program was spotted filming their Cybertruck review segment in Hermosa Beach and they opened the frunk.

Left Side of the bed near the tailgate there is a door with electrical behind it.

@SentinelOne , but he specifically mentioned the frunk and not the bed.

The bed outlet also looks small like 2-120v small. Ford and Chevy understood the assignment here (10+ kW).

It’s good to have no lip because then you can just slide heavy things out.

I agree. There would be all kinds of uses for an outlet from charging your laptop if you turned the frunk into a makeshift desk, plugging in a crock pot or electric griddle if you’re tailgating or camping, plugging in various tool, etc. You know truck stuff.

They’d better have outlets in the vault. At least put them in the launch addition and then remove them in the next iteration if no one uses them.

If anything the opposite would make more sense imo. Keep costs as lean as possible to minimize 'bleeding' during the ramp and then bend the knee to market forces and add it to the frunk once you're fully ramped and in the black. Not unlike what happened with the motorized liftgate on Model 3.

This sure looks like a gas strut to me. I changed out the ones on my Model X so they do this.
