Tesla's conditionally available electric car turned out to be dangerous for humans
The long-awaited Tesla Cybertruck electric pickup truck was officially unveiled at the end of last year. The conditionally affordable electric car could not be made as cheap as promised at the time of the concept's debut. But other problems were found in the car that were dangerous to humans.
The body of the Tesla Cybertruck is made of thick stainless steel. There is no practical application for this, Elon Musk just wanted to surprise customers with an unusual car. But steel is very expensive and difficult to process. As the bloggers of the Throttle House YouTube channel found out, Tesla decided not to do it.
As a result, the edges of the body panels turned out to be as sharp as a knife. To show the danger, the bloggers even managed to grate a raw carrot on the edge of the door. But that's not all.
In addition to the rear cargo platform, the Tesla Cybertruck has a trunk in the front. Despite the base price of $60,000 (initially promised $40,000), the test model costs about $120,000.
Other comparable cars are almost always equipped with trunk door sensors that do not allow the trunk door to close when an obstacle is detected. Bloggers again conducted a test with a carrot that imitates a child's finger. Children often put their fingers in the slots when the trunk is closed.
The electric car was not embarrassed by the obstacle in the form of a "test" finger - the carrot was instantly cut by a sharp steel panel. Interestingly, the car also successfully coped with the destruction of a metal water bottle.
