Wait ... AFAIK we have seen zero proof or any recent leaks that the Cybertruck has anything besides normal glass making up the windshield. Did I miss something?

P.S. I've experienced broken windshield in wrecks before and was really hoping for they Cybertruck to have semi-truck amor glass but that seems to be a myth.

That looks like some stellar cabin integrity.
Ehh... Not really. Better than other trucks but kinda short for a Tesla. It was kinking in the wrong places. You want the corners to fail before the middle.

Armor glass is still gonna crack when the frame is impinged.

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

The way that the armor glass broke is interesting. Seeing it in work here, not shattering into a million pieces. Should hold up well in my neighborhood.

The panels dented more than I'd hope. That ajar door also seems to be made of a rather thin material. I hope it's still bullet resistant, for my neighborhood.

That strip coming off the A-pillar is kinda dumb, seems cosmetic when I figured it would all be one structural member.

Personally I'd rather my kids be protected in a vehicle like this than worry about what they can see out of the side rear windows.

The entire roof is glass, the windshield is just about a football field long, and there is a rear TV monitor in the back seat. Kids will have plenty of visibility

It's all about perspective. In spite of the sticker, this may actually be the "chopped" or "low rider" version. It was bound to happen anyway.
