    While this is likely a fake image, this will happen with any old/new car collision because new cars are designed to crush like that.

    Crumple zones keep you alive.

      The wheel arches are plastic and the front where there has clearly just been stretched in photoshop. The side panel would also have popped off, not shrunk. Most cars are also stronger in the back than the front so this wouldn’t be so weird except that the Cybertruck doesn’t really do that properly so…

    At least the Beetle is a durable car that is almost synonym with repairability, and served multiple generations of working class people.

    And depending on the color you can make highschoolers punch each other just by driving around.

    Are people just willy-nilly crashing these Cyber monstrosities or what? Knowing how few are actually on the road, the number of them involved in accidents seems way too high given average accident statistics.

        I know it is, but my comment still applies. I see way more images and videos of Cybertruck crashes than seems reasonable for how many there are on the road. I do wonder if they’re somehow more prone to accidents or if their drivers feel too safe and take bigger risks.

    Yeah, this is a good thing. If the car doesn’t crumple, the energy goes into you, and you die.

    Is there a point to generating these fake AI images anyway?

      You can tell it’s AI because the cybertruck doesn’t have crumple zones
