Exposed Tesla Cybertruck suspension system
【Summary】A broken-down Tesla Cybertruck was spotted in California, allowing a bystander to take spy shots of the electric pick-up truck's suspension. The vehicle was covered with a reflective sheet, suggesting it could be a release candidate or prototype. The suspension is described as simple but robust, with a rear lower A-arm in 2 welded steel pieces and an actuator for dynamic damping.
A potential Tesla Cybertruck release candidate was recently spotted on the roadside in California after experiencing engine problems. A passerby took advantage of the situation and managed to capture some spy shots of the Cybertruck, including images of its suspension.
Photos of the abandoned Cybertruck have since been shared online, showing the vehicle covered and left at the side of the road near Los Altos Hills. According to reports, a Tesla engineer attempted to fix the issue but ultimately had to leave the truck behind. This provided an opportunity for a curious bystander to take some covert photos of the forsaken vehicle.
From the images, it is evident that the Cybertruck is covered with a reflective sheet, but it also features a familiar camouflage pattern. This has led to speculation that the truck could be a release candidate or possibly a prototype that has undergone terrain testing in other parts of the world. Additionally, close-up shots of the truck's underside reveal a cluster of holes that may be intended for a truck reversing speaker.
Further reports shed light on the Cybertruck's suspension, with additional information provided by a former suspension engineer. According to the expert, the rear lower A-arm of the Cybertruck is made up of two welded steel pieces, differing from the front casting. The engineer also noted the presence of an actuator that allows for dynamic damping adjustment. Overall, the comments regarding the Cybertruck's suspension have been positive, highlighting its simplicity and robustness, although it is acknowledged that it may still be a prototype system.
