A surprising image of a Tesla Cybertruck sporting an uncanny Ford F-150 wrap has surfaced, causing a stir in the automotive world. While the creative disguise hints at Tesla’s playful side, the leaked photo also sheds light on an intriguing aspect of the Cybertruck – its frunk.
Recently, a series of wrapped Tesla Cybertruck prototypes have been spotted on California roads, leaving enthusiasts speculating about the automaker’s intentions. Whether Tesla is concealing release candidates or simply experimenting with wraps for their electric trucks remains uncertain.

However, the latest leaked photo, shared by Twitter user Greggertruck, has added a new twist to the ongoing saga. Unlike the previous camouflaged wraps, this one masquerades the Cybertruck as a conventional pickup truck, possibly a cheeky attempt at trolling from Tesla’s CEO, Elon Musk. Musk has been vocal about the lack of innovation in traditional pickup truck designs, such as the Ford F-150, which he famously described as “boring-looking.”

Beyond the playful banter, the image has sparked curiosity about the Cybertruck’s frunk – the front trunk unique to Tesla vehicles. Observers are questioning whether the electric truck will indeed feature this convenient storage space, or if it will deviate from Tesla’s norm.
Upon closer examination, the leaked photo raises doubts about the existence of a frunk in the Cybertruck. It’s plausible that the frunk liner may not have been installed in this particular prototype, but the possibility of the Cybertruck lacking a frunk altogether cannot be ignored. If true, it would mark the first Tesla vehicle to forgo this distinctive feature.

In the realm of electric pickup trucks, frunks hold special significance as they provide enclosed storage space in vehicles that typically have beds instead of trunks. While the Cybertruck’s closed bed design somewhat compensates for the absence of a frunk, having access to a separate enclosed area could still be seen as advantageous.
As the leaked image continues to circulate, speculations about Tesla’s intentions and the presence of the frunk in the Cybertruck are bound to intensify. Whether this leak was intentional or not, it undoubtedly succeeded in igniting conversations and excitement within the electric vehicle community. Tesla’s quest for innovation and distinctive design choices ensure that the Cybertruck’s journey remains captivating, keeping enthusiasts eagerly awaiting the official release.
