Tesla's polarizing pickup. Stainless steel exoskeleton. Tri-motor variant makes 845 horsepower. Launched 2023 after multiple delays.
The Tesla Cybertruck launched in late 2023 after multiple delays from the original 2021 production target. The Cybertruck is Tesla pickup truck with distinctive stainless steel exoskeleton design, polarizing styling, and electric powertrain. The Cyberbeast (tri-motor variant) makes 845 horsepower and runs 0-60 in around 2.6 seconds. The Cybertruck visual design is unique. The stainless steel body panels are flat geometric shapes (no curves), creating a distinctly different aesthetic from any other production vehicle. The choice of stainless steel was driven by both visual identity and durability claims; the material does not require painting and resists corrosion. The Cybertruck has been polarizing among reviewers and consumers. Some appreciate the unique styling and engineering. Others find the angular design impractical, the material choice problematic for road use (debris damage), and the overall execution inconsistent. The Cybertruck remains controversial. The Cybertruck features include 35+ inch tires capability, towing up to 11,000 pounds, and various Tesla technology including autopilot. The vault feature and various utility configurations make it useful as a work truck. On WhipJury, Cybertruck submissions are increasingly common as the cars age into the platform. The distinctive styling generates strong reactions from voters; the community appreciates the engineering ambition while debating execution.

Frequently asked questions about Tesla Cybertruck
More on the Tesla Cybertruck
We think the curvy 2017 Tesla Roadster concept beats the faceted wedge Tesla revealed on October 15, 2026. Critics at Hagerty and The Autopian see Lamborghini in the new shape, and the concept also had the better roof, lights, and staying power.
The new Tesla Roadster hides its headlights behind a panel that drops down when the lights come on. Tesla's designers call them pop-down headlights. They arrive 22 years after the Corvette C5 and Lotus Esprit, the last mass-produced pop-up cars sold in the US, ended production.
Tesla revealed the new Roadster on October 15, 2026, with over 1,341 hp, a claimed 0.81-second 0 to 60 run, and a version that flies. Range is about half the 2017 promise, production is set for 2028, and Tesla says it cannot guarantee delivery.
The Tesla Model Y has been the best-selling vehicle on the planet. Not best-selling EV. Best-selling car, period. So when Tesla finally gave it a redesign in early 2025, codenamed Juniper, the whole car world paid attention. The question on WhipJury is simple: does it actually look better?
