In 2019 Tesla debuted the Cybertruck pickup truck as its effort to bring electric power to a utilitarian platform historically dominated by gasoline-powered vehicles. Its distinctive stainless steel unibody—referred to as its “Exoskeleton”—makes it stronger than conventional body-on-frame designs by putting the toughest elements on the outside. The truck is designed to distribute its weight through its bodywork rather than a separate frame. As stainless steel panels cannot be traditionally formed, each panel must be press bent in one direction. This prototype was the first Cybertruck revealed to the public.
