It likely won’t meet European safety standards so there’s a whole market it will just miss. But maybe it’s too big to be practical in European cities anyway.

- piva00 3y agoI see people driving Dodge RAM 1500s inside Prague and Paris, it's absolutely impractical but some do it.
- emmelaich 3y agoWhy would it not meant European safety standards? The S,3,Y are very safe. Do you think they've forgotten safety for the cybertruck?
- orwin 3y agoBecause European do not only test the vehicle crashing by itself, but vehicle crashing into other vehicles (frontal crash and side crash), and vehicle crashing into pedestrians/bikes. S,3,Y are sedan and would do well on those tests.
- emmelaich 3y agoBut do you think the cybertruck would do worse that other similar sized vehicles?
- orwin 3y agoNo. Well, depends on the vehicle, but you cannot import US trucks from the US in Europe, they all have a EU-spec build. One of the change imposed is about edge sharpness (bull bar are removed for EU builds), and I think cybertruck is kinda fucked on that point.
- Hamuko 3y ago>Do you think they've forgotten safety for the cybertruck? Didn't Musk literally say "and if you're ever in an argument with another car, you will win" at an event, emphasising how the Cybertruck is terribly unsafe for everyone else on the road?
- InCityDreams 3y ago(Sadly?) there are more and more too-big-for-europe trucks in europe every day.
