That’s a wrap: Tesla delights Cybertruck fans with new camouflage designs

Tesla’s Cybertruck is one product in the automotive industry that can not be missed. In recent months, multiple sightings of prototypes in the US and New Zealand have shown the Cybertruck in a camouflage wrap, with green, white and dark sections.

It now appears that Tesla has started testing Cybertrucks covered in a darker more pixelated wrap. It’s seen from a side angle driving along a curvy road and shared on Twitter by Tesla enthusiast, S.E. Robinson, Jr.

The latest wrap and its colour were widely well-received by fans and observers of the utilitarian vehicle. “Its going to be so many freaking cool wraps on this truck the next 12-18months from owners all over the US🤘🏻🔥”, one said.

Given the increase in the number of sightings of the test vehicles, some even commented on how the unique design has grown on them. “The more pictures I see of this truck, the more I like it, and I didn’t hate it when it was announced”, an observer said.

It’s currently unclear if the wraps are being designed in-house by Tesla or via a third party supplier. 

Some believe that if not now, it could be a profitable side venture for Tesla. “I am becoming more and more convinced that Tesla will have its own wrapping business or offering for cybertruck!”, mentioned one reply.

This would be an offering well received by many order holders as at this point, it’s the only way to customise the exterior of the steel-exteriored hard-angled truck.

Last week at the Q2 earnings call, Tesla CEO, Elon Musk, gave an update on how the production is ramping up along with sharing some key details about the sizing of the product. 

One of these details was how large the bed of the truck would be, exceeding 1.8 metres in length, according to Musk.

“This is the first truck that we are aware that will have four doors, over a six-foot bed and would fit into a 20-foot garage,”

Musk also commented on the technological advancements in the vehicle and its unique look.

“We want to emphasise, that the Cybertruck has a lot of new technology,” Musk said. “It doesn’t look like any other vehicle because it’s not like any other vehicle.”

With first deliveries only months away, it’d not be the last time wrapped Cybertrucks are spotted. As demand for the vehicle remains quite high, it’d be years before the backlog is cleared. 

In the meantime, more unique designs and the culture around this future-looking truck will continue to evolve, bringing with it many surprising new wraps and modifications.
