From UPSummit where Cybertruck designer Franz von Holzhausen presented.

Franz showed these design sketches and wood prototype photo. Also said that the Cybertruck was the most complex vehicle design challenge ever, despite the apparent simplicity of the design.

Thanks Franz and Elon for ONCE in the industry to create a real vehicle that looks like the actual prototype.

Concept cars are usually the biggest tease they make me angry.

Simple, but complex. The flat outer surfaces are actually slightly convex but they look completely flat.

Anyone know if you can get those full size drawings anywhere? Would love to have that on a frame in my office. Espcially the one with the F 117

I wonder if Franz filled up his pants when Elon said 'Yeah, build that one'.

Yes, the F117 was an inspiration to the Cybertruck designers.

For those of us who missed this UP Summit, what was it all about? Who hosted? etc. etc? Somehow I completely missed this opportunity. Is there a mailing list I need to get on because checking in regularly here I missed this event sadly.

They should scrap the current roadster and use that two door hotness.

He did the same when he was at Mazda.

I want to see the ones that didn’t make the cut. I bet they are stunning.
