What can we say about the Tesla Cybertruck that hasn't been spoken or written already? This is the ultimate worst, best, or quirkiest electric pickup truck currently on the market, according to glaringly opposite points of view. It was introduced as a concept back in November 2019 when the lead designer Franz von Holzhausen threw a metal ball at its supposedly unbreakable 'Armor Glass' windows – and two of them shattered, nevertheless!
People then posted hundreds of thousands of reservations for the low-polygon modeled EV that has unpainted flat stainless steel sheet panels and a design resembling a spaceship on wheels. Now, after many delays, the pickup truck is finally in production since 2023 with just two models currently available – the Foundation Series Cyberbeast flagship with three electric motors and 845 hp plus zero to 60 mph in 2.6 seconds and 320 miles of range for almost $120k and a dual-motor AWD version with 600 hp and 340 miles of range for almost $100k.
Since deliveries started, the Tesla Cybertruck has become an object of adoration or resentment, as you can't go by unnoticed when driving one. Because it's covered in 'blank' sheets of stainless-steel metal, it's also a great canvas for making it your own. And everybody knows that a lot of people have tried to make it as unique as possible. Naturally, most custom ideas have reached the peak of flamboyancy, so now it's time to make it stand out via cool yet subdued personalization builds.
For example, this videographer has found what is possibly the first and only Tesla Cybertruck clad in a black suede wrap! Seriously, if you look at the video embedded below, the videographer even scratches it to show us the distinctive marks left on real suede! However, no custom build is ever complete until you also get a set of aftermarket wheels – and that's why the EV pickup truck was paying a visit to ATL Custom Auto.
Over there, it got a set of Forgiato Designs Blank-RA Slantlip full-face aftermarket wheels – 26s, of course, because the Tesla Cybertruck owners also love big wheels with low-profile tires, even when the latter still retain their all-terrain properties, as is the case here. So, what do you think? Are we coming out of the outrageous Tesla Cybertruck era into the age of sensible yet innovative custom builds? What would you do to personalize your Tesla Cybertruck if you had one in the driveway?
