I mean, once you’ve accepted the basic requirements of: * four wheels * meets legal size limits * reasonable aerodynamic characteristics * room for passengers * sufficiently sized windows and doors * crumplezone * reasonable collision and roll characteristics * front that mitigates damage to pedestrians * (for SUVs) large trunk with large door * practical to manufacture * etc the design space is pretty limited, and so it’s not surprising that all vehicles in a given class look pretty similar. It’s like how most large planes look pretty similar - it’s not laziness, it’s optimization within constraints. It’s also worth noting that the Cybertruck, as shown, does not meet a lot of the basic requirements (rear views, windshield wipers, impact characteristics, headlight legality) so any shipping version will have to have a changes made towards a more traditional form.
