I am meeting such amazing people on here everyday, all the time, & I am so grateful 🥹♥️ ofc where there’s pluses there will be minuses but so far I am happy w/this platform. 😃🗺️🎙️🤗🫂
I still can’t believe the entire outer body of the Cybercab is PLASTIC.
I think this is the first production Tesla vehicle built this way.
Tesla molds the COLOR directly into the panels using reaction injection molding.
Far from a traditional paint shop.
A process that can take hours with normal automotive paint can now take minutes.
Tesla says this cuts manufacturing emissions for those parts by around 35% and eliminates the paint VOCs from the traditional process.
And before anyone says, “But what about safety?”
The plastic exterior is not the crash structure.
The massive front and rear giga castings underneath are doing that job.
I rode in the Cybercab myself.
Trust me, it does NOT feel cheap at all.
It actually makes you realize what Tesla is trying to do here.
Fewer parts.
Fewer manufacturing steps.
No traditional paint shop.
Faster production.
Lower cost.
The unboxed process…
This is so much more than Tesla just using plastic to make a cheap car.
Tesla is completely rethinking how you build millions of robotaxis.
I just need to join the military like I planned from the beginning of the year I had a goal ��� I’m just a hair close from ideal weight they want for me, I’ve already got everything else I need. I went to Officer Training Academy at the Citadel in AFJROTC. Reflecting on Labor Day lol.
