My design update render (size reduction & leveling)

[mprimo]

This chop wouldn't be bad at all.....the portions are relatively the same and at a glance, you'll hardly notice the change.
same 6.5 bed. I was good with the concept as is.....but making the center line a bit more level will look better from the rearview. I did this chop to keep my sanity hoping Tesla don't screw it up.

My updated version:

Updated version superimposed against original concept version:

Added another version:

The orange outline is the original size......my photoshop skills are a novice so bear with me.

I must say I love this rendering way more than the original monster.
This is going to be such a game-changer, I can't wait.

Would be nice, jus a few inches and quite the same look

I really like the revised CT. Very subtle yet noticeable difference when you compare the two. This should also satisfy buyers who wanted a standard USA garage friendly truck (12’ wide x 22’ deep).

With the air suspension, Won't the stance be configurable?

Suspension height will surely be adjustable, may be not be independently configurable between front and rear. Instead, the setting might just lift or lower the entire truck by the same height.

During the reveal the back end was lowered to allow the ATV to load easier; Or, did they just say it is?

Looking at some of the interior views, it’s low, medium, or high.... (highway cruising, normal, and off road)

Yes, when loading the ATV in the back, the read-end lowered to decrease the approach angle. It was an explicitly mentioned feature. The front looked like it was still at whatever height it was set at when the back-end was lowered (per the CT reveal).

Nice Work! I like it better this new way, just the right size

As long as Tesla keeps the 6.5ft bed, the rest I'll learn to love it!?

LOL, I just want it to be 225 inches or shorter. That's the MAX my garage can take. I'd be willing to lose a few inches off the bed.

A 2nd version, an International version, in addition to the first has been announced that there're working on it.
Elon tweeted that it would 73 inch's wide but it may now be 2 or more inch's wider.

It will be interesting to see how many of the existing orders swap over, and how many new orders are generated.

I'd switch in a heartbeat. I don't really need a truck, I need an EV. I can do with a Model Y, but having the bed to put my "stuff" in was a game-changer. Maybe 20% of sales of the current CT will be to guys that actually take them to the worksite. I don't think it's even that high for ICE trucks. I'd be ecstatic to drive a smaller CT, it needs to have 35 inch tires though.....

Okay, last one.

I personally love the smaller tailgate in this render. It was the thing I liked least about the original design.
