Tesla Cybertruck Interior Caught On Video Before Delivery Event

The Tesla Cybertruck delivery event is coming soon and now we’re getting a new look at a slightly updated interior. A short video popped up showing the flip-up rear seats, the tonneau cover functionality, and even some interesting data on the infotainment screen.

Here’s a quick look at the most up-to-date Cybertruck interior we’ve seen just weeks before buyers get their hands on it. The exterior of the Cybertruck might be opinion-splitting and stark but the interior appears to be fairly conventional. It’s built to fit five people and adopts some features we’ve seen already in production at Tesla. That includes a large widescreen infotainment system, no conventional gauge cluster, and wireless device chargers.

This new video shows a few features Tesla hasn’t put into production though including a squarish steering wheel. A similar setup was on display earlier this year but now it has a small stylized Cybertruck emblem in the airbag cover. The center console no longer has a slide-out cover and instead houses those wireless chargers along with two angular cupholders.

The rear seats look pretty straightforward as well. The bottom cushion flips up to make a more configurable storage space which we’ve seen before. All four door cards appear to have multiple storage cubbies and a large rear-seat touchscreen entertainment system sits ahead of the passengers in the back. The short video posted by LQVASSER on Instagram concludes with a quick shot of the power tonneau buttons and functionality.

We also noticed that the quick pan of the infotainment system shows off that with a 71% state of charge, the Cybertruck in this case would require an estimated 55 minutes of additional charging to be at 100%. If true, commenters in one thread on X believe that the battery must be in the 245 kW range since the charge rate is 71 kWh on the screen.

That would be about two and a half times larger than the 100 kW battery pack in the Tesla Model S Plaid. In other words, this big pickup should come with big range too. 

Interestingly, a user on X named Jeremy Judkins, who shared the same clip on Musk’s social media platform, cheekily claimed, “Tesla is revoking Tesla is revoking invites to the Cybertruck event to all people that posted this video. It’s in bad taste to leak stuff like this right before a big event,” a quote that some outlets picked up. However, he later admitted in another post that he was trolling, stating, “No one told Fred I just be making shit up? ☠️☠️☠️” . In all fairness, with Tesla’s conspicuous lack of a PR department, it seems like these days, practically anyone can sling mud at the company and slip away undetected.

Gearhead Nirvana: We Visit Porsche’s Atlanta Workshop Where Classics Get Reborn

Maintaining any car is a duty that different owners approach in vastly different ways. For some, a few zip ties and a rattle can of spray paint is good enough. Far on the other end of the spectrum are owners like the ones who take their car to the Porsche Classic Center in Atlanta. During our trip there to see the new Macan EV in virtual reality , we had the opportunity to tour the Classic Center as it was deep in the midst of multiple repair and restoration projects.  To the owners of these cars and to the Porsche brand itself, what these mechanics, technicians, upholsterers, and painters are preserving is heritage. The center’s mantra “As good as new. But with even more character” is on display for anyone who visits the site.

The New Honda Prelude Will Be A Global Model, But It Won’t Be A Toyota GR 86

Image
Last month, Honda rolled out the red carpet for the the hybrid Prelude Concept , heralding the comeback of a historic name in the motoring world. Now, this car has been given the green light as a global model, set to cater to both right- and left-hand drive markets. However, it might not quite rev up to be the full-throttle sports car many enthusiasts were anticipating Despite being labeled a concept by Honda, the car presented at the Japan Mobility Show (JMS) looked quite production-ready. And if we know anything about Honda, they have a knack for unveiling thinly-disguised production cars as concepts. Take the last two Civics, for example. The 10th-gen Civic Concept was more or less the Civic coupe of that generation with a more aggressive stance and altered bumpers, while the 11th-gen Civic Prototype was virtually the same sedan that made it to production.
