Tester Cybertruck Prototype Spotted on a Tow Truck!

[flowerlandfilms]

It's not identical due to foliage changing, Google Maps took these back in Febuary, but...

1. Eucalyptus Treeline (An Australian always knows)
2. Sewer Grate (Boosted the shadows a bit)
3. Weird Structure on corner of building (This is what seals the deal I think)
4. Succulent (Chinese Meal)
5. Tree Curvature (Good to see it's doing so well!)

47623 Fremont Blvd, Fremont, CA 94538, United States
Google describes it as a "Delivery Centre" or "Delivery Hub".

Is that a "big-ass wiper"? Or a "big ass-wiper"?

I was originally (back when BAW first came on the scene) reading it as "big <exclamatory emphasis> wiper". But somehow today I am reading it as either:

1. a wiper for large asses
2. a large wiper for asses

A local restaurant serves a "Big Ass Burger" that I'll never be able to enjoy again, thank you very much

My kid might be too old by the time I take delivery, but just in case what sound does the BAW make?

The BAW on the truck goes "swish swish swish"? All through the town.

Holy Beeeejeeezus. lol

I'm waiting for your new book ... 'Where's Cybertruck'.

I'm hoping the mirrors don't too negatively effect the drag coefficient. I was watching a program on the new Aptera saying that its entire drag coefficient was equivalent to both of an F150's mirrors alone.

I've seen the images people have posted speculating on the airflow around their guess at CT specs. Has anyone come up with a guess at the coefficient of drag on any of those models?

Lots of articles today with this image. All are saying it's beat to hell and the windshield is cracked all over. It's like they read each others crap and spew the same garbage. None have comments with the article. I wonder why. I would love to point out the windshield is not cracked at all. It's just the reflections of the tree.

Thanks! I'm sure I read this before, but only recalled the visuals...

All the articles are low-quality clickbait. Such as:

"...the Tesla Cybertruck looks to have been put through the wringer. The windshield is cracked in every direction, and the paint job appears to be completely wrecked."

lolwhut

Are they loading or unloading?
Dark green tree in the background looks like Eucalyptus so I'm going to guess this is Fremont.

No, that's in Melbourne, note the koala on the eucalyptus tree.

If this is the final version, I'm disappointed that the stainless steel body is not riveted with the heads poking outside like the old Land Rover Defenders in the African savannah.

To those who worked on 3mm stainless steel, can I mode it to put these rivets.

A restored old Defender is priced upwards to $300,000.

you can always glue them on. LOL

That windshield is huuuuge from this angle
Super and mirrors present

FSD training / calibration?!

The sensors on the front are not cameras, It is a system for terrain and road surface mapping, using a solid-state LiDAR sensor with a Time of flight (ToF) return receiver hence the 2 X modules. It is accurate to 1 to 2mm. It is manufactured by a company in Brussels called XenomatiX. It is used for many applications and one application that I think it is used here is the road or 4WD track surface mapping. They use it to determine the forward-looking surface terrain and make anticipated adjustments to the suspension (active suspension). This will be a game changer for all you off-roaders. Imagine if the CT could also determine the best angle of attack for extreme terrain and many other benefits. It could result in a smooth ride on bumpy surfaces You can also see that they are using a wheel odometry sensor to measure wheel speed and distance. This is coupled with the GPS antenna set in the middle of the roof just above the windscreen. The XenomatiX system is expensive, north of 100k, so I am sure that they will not be using this system in the production model, but instead, they would be using it for prototyping their own similar system, most likely computer binocular camera vision to allow depth perception and pixelization to create a Sudo point cloud
