Maybe it’s the retro-futuristic style or reminiscent of sci-fi and cyperpunk, but I genuinely really like the design.

I would never buy one due to the MYRIAD issues plaguing the stainless steel body, interior build quality, or give Tesla money. But still a cool looking car, if nonfunctional truck.

    I’d say that it’s 80s concept car aesthetic specifically, which is what a lot of people found attractive about it when it was announced. Then we saw more and more of it, and it started to look less like a concept car and more like a rolling dumpster with the same levels of tetanus risk as the real deal.

    I think the cars in 2077 also have an 80s aesthetic, but it’s 80s retro-futurism dystopia (cyberpunk was founded in the 70s and 80s, so it makes perfect sense) which runs the full gambit from supercar to super cheap, and I’d take any of those over the Cybertruck any day.
