It worked for Sonic. Might as well work here. This is seriously the most wretched looking vehicle I’ve ever seen. I swear to god if this isn’t some elaborate ruse I won’t buy one. That’ll show them.

But seriously. This is awful. Even worse than the original Sonic movie design. It looks like a car from an early 199 0s computer game that hadn’t quite figured out how cars look yet.

Actually. I take that back. Early 90s video game cars looked way better than this. I normally don’t like shitting on cars simply based on looks, because most cars that are ugly have some sort of practical usage (see: Multipla, Aztek). This is just ugly for the sake of being ugly. How the fuck are you even going to use it as a truck?

That being said, if it is some weird marketing stunt to get attention for the new Tesla truck, it definitely worked. I’m sure whatever they actually reveal will look like a Renaissance painting compared to whatever the hell was just revealed.

It’s definitely polarizing. At first I thought it was a joke, and was waiting for the real truck to be revealed.

I think it is going to be a bit like the last generation Prius - some people will love it, some people will hate it. I think it will slowly grow on me.

But dang. That reveal did not go very well.

Only way this thing works is if they charge 300,000 for the base and market it only to people with f-u(squared) money

Full size trucks don’t sell in any quantity where those regs  are in force.

I thought it was supposed to tow 8 gazillion pounds and be made entirely from locks of elons hair?

What insanity is finally going to drive his company to bankruptcy?

Trust me though, people will convince themselves that they like this. Just wait. Also tesla will get tons of free marketing.

I didn’t know Top Gear was a design studio. They had this prototype for well over a decade now.

Fisker stole their idea of a PHEV with a moustache with the Karma, and now Tesla’s copying them too.
