The Cybertruck continued on its way, as well as all the other cars, and the runaway cover didn’t do any damage or injure anyone, judging from the video, which is always a good thing.
We don’t know why the all-electric pickup’s aero cover decided it had enough, but we can speculate that it might have something to do with the gap between the tire and plastic cover that’s there presumably to allow cold air to reach the brakes. Compared to the other wheel covers offered by Tesla for its other models, the Cybertruck is the only one that has a closed-off design, while the others sit flush with the tire but cutouts for air to go through.
It could also be that the cover just wasn’t secured properly or that the clips that hold it in place were damaged after the presumably high number of testing miles accrued by this particular development prototype.More EV Stories
