real_aurgathor It didn’t take long them come with a knock-off that can be aptly described by the headline: “China’s Cyber Pickup Looks Like Tesla And Hummer Had A One-Night Stand” https://www.carscoops.com/2025/04/gac-01-concept-looks-like-a-hummer-and-a-cybertruck-had-a-one-night-stand/ Looks much more traditional, less original, but just as fugly.
urbanriot real_aurgathor wonder how fast it goes… I saw a Tesla Cybertruck ripping down the highway a few days ago and it doesn’t look anywhere near as bad in person as it does online for some reason.
real_aurgathor urbanriot Since it’s nowhere near as aerodynamic as the Cybertruck, it has to be slower. However, since the Cybertruck doesn’t look like a truck at all in spite of its name, that’s not a fair comparison.
urbanriot real_aurgathor since the Cybertruck doesn’t look like a truck at all in spite of its name Finally having seen it in person I don’t even know what it looks like… It definitely looks more truckier in person, or at least like a futuristic SUV.

The British TV show “UFO” was made in 1970 but set in 1980. The producers created some rather ugly-looking versions of what they expected the future cars to look like. It reminds me of some of these Teslas. Some cars are shown here (and some pretty women too): https://autoshite.com/topic/27553-the-cars-of-ufo-tv-series/
