IT Home reported on January 7 that Tesla's Cybertruck has attracted a lot of attention with its angular appearance, and the unique design of its wipers has also sparked heated discussions. Recently, a YouTuber reviewed the electric pickup truck and used one word to describe the car's wipers - "giant wet noodles".
YouTuber Kyle Conner recently released a detailed review of the Cybertruck, which highlights the car's wipers. Unlike traditional wipers, which are very stiff, the Cybertruck's wipers seem to be exceptionally soft. In the video, Kyle Conner easily peels the windshield wiper off the windshield, and the wiper falls limply like a "giant wet noodle."
"The longest wiper in a production car in the world? It's crazy," Conner exclaimed, "It's like a giant wet noodle, it's incredible." ”
Conner suspects that this wiper may be missing a second wiper, and it's unclear if it's defective or if other delivery vehicles are doing the same. He also pointed out in the video that this wiper moves quite fast, considering its size.
Last month, Tesla's vice president of vehicle engineering, Lars Moravy, said in an interview with Jay Leno that Tesla had to abandon its traditional wiper design in order to remove rain from the Cybertruck's oversized windshield. He revealed that the power of this wiper is close to 1KW, and the end is also designed with a spoiler to prevent the wiper from deviating from the windshield when driving at high speeds.
Before the Cybertruck was officially delivered last November, there were questions about whether Tesla would keep the lone giant wiper because early photos showed it couldn't cover the entire windshield. Elon Musk has previously said that there is "no easy solution" to the Cybertruck's giant windshield, and the original design in 2019 didn't even come with wipers.
Tesla began deliveries of the first 12 Cybertrucks on November 30 last year, and the futuristic electric pickup truck will continue to spark discussion on all fronts.
