So Elon doesn't just act like a madman on Twitter, but is one in real life.

I mean, kudos for trying something different..... I guess. Just wild that they go from something as slick as the roadster, to this monstrosity.

So after the initial shock, seeing it out in the wild in motion has it growing on me. So futuristic

I still cannot believe this is real. Nobody wants the sharp corners from the 80s. Tesla could have had real success with a slick-looking powerful electric truck.

Im sure someone posted the gif of "The Homer" already...but in all seriousness, this looks worse than that. Surely Elon mist be takin the piss with this thing?

It looks like the "future car" i would draw as a 4 year old

Musk missed a fucking rare opportunity to partner with Sony and call this thing the PS-1. RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDDDDDDGGEEEE RRRRAAAACCCEERRRR!!!

I think the geometry is too poor to be PS1. More appropriate to partner with SEGA for the 25th anniversary of the 32X.

Hideous design IMO.

i think it'd be neat if this vehicle had the standard safety features mandated by the federal government

Put down my reservation for the dual motor. Looking forward to seeing the final design.

Fugliness aside, the dual motor AWD version for 50k is basically the same price as the AWD long range model 3. Just a tad less range, but similar 0-60. That seems out of whack.

They are definitely high as fuck designing this thing but I kinda ... like it?

Compared to the Aztec or something it actually has the power and futurism to back up its design. I dunno, it's kinda ballsy.

I expected a cool looking future car not an exact replica of a N64 car.

It looks dope in pictures but the one they had on stage looks like ass. I'd still take it over any of the other Tesla's because I find them to be ugly as hell, like toads. At least this is extremely different and wouldn't mind driving it.

gimme an actual futuristic looking EV and I'm in. The rear end of the Taycan is the most futuristic looking thing in any of the current EVs.

design is dope. don't get the hate or mockery. it has 3 different pricing models ranging from affordable to luxury. it doesn't kill the planet. perfect for the rural city slicker who wants a truck to drive around in but doesn't actually do truck like things with it the majority of the time.

Just clicked the article on this on an auto news site I frequent. I clicked the link and my reaction was literally jjonahjamesonlaugh.gif.

The sad thing is the specs are pretty good at $40K, but Jesus Fucking Christ.

This is without a doubt the ugliest vehicle design I've seen in decades. It looks like a vehicle from an 80s movie that's set in the "future".

Hideous.

Reminds me of Lambo's design in the 80s with those corners. Fucking Musk disrespecting Blade Runner. I knew it.

I think people mock it, but I doubt they find it actually ugly. It's pretty pleasing on the eyes. If anything, it'll just get the "woah, is that a lambo" look from people who don't have lambos.

Troll all you want - I'm happy people like Elon Musk exist! The responses remind me of the initial iPod reveal.

I know we are making fun of the ugly truck.
But can we please not forget what a hilariously bad presentation that was.
How is Elon unable to talk on stage like a normal human?
