On cars yeah but I’m not sure if that’s so much of a factor on “body on a frame” trucks because the frame does not crumble much. Cybertruck doesn’t have such frame because it has an exoskeleton but if you were to make it out of thinner metal then you’d need to add the sub-frame anyway so the end result is still the same.
Also, Tesla has a pretty impressive track record on when it comes to IIHS and Euro NCAP crash tests so I’d be surprised if Cybertruck was an exception.
So what you’re saying is not only is it ugly, rust prone, and poorly designed, it’s ALSO unsafe.
I haven’t said a single thing about rust, appereance or design.
The Cybertruck is an exception tho. It was tested at ~50 km/h and hardly crumpled at all.
Well unlike you I’m a total idiot when it comes to analyzing crash tests so I’ll reserve my judgement untill I see some official test results and what experts have to say about them.
There’s a video of the test I mentioned
I know. Like I said; I don’t have the expertise to make any conclusions from said video. I’ve seen plenty of videos like that and some of the vehicles get 3 stars and some get 5 but it all looks the same to me. I don’t need to have an opinion on this. I’ll wait for official test results instead and hear what the people who know what they’re talking about have to say.
