The innate engine of the famously noisy Chevrolet C10 was replaced with a dual electric motor from the Tesla Model 3. For the installer, the modifier had to change the frame structure and connect with the rear chassis of the Model S.

As a result, this old Chevrolet C10 pickup is able to accelerate without sound with a potential power of 900 hp and a peak torque of 1,762 Nm.

In addition to ruthless performance capital, the appearance of the Tesla-engined Chevy C10 also has a racing aura thanks to supplying a custom wide body.

Starting from the revised front and rear bumpers, the classic grille, the aggressive spoiler attached to the tub, and the over fenders that are so striking.

Moving to another sector, a suspension system from the Chevrolet Corvette C5 is installed which makes the setup of the legs closer to the asphalt.

To add to the handsome look, there is a bronze Y-Spoke rim model from Finspeed that fills the fender space. Another modernization has also penetrated into the cabin, where the dashboard display is made contemporary with a digital speedometer intake.
