Swiss Companies Redesign Cybertruck Front to Pass European Pedestrian Impact Tests

Swiss companies are working to make the Cybertruck road-legal in Europe, replacing its stainless-steel front with a new carbon design after the production vehicle's rigid front failed pedestrian impact tests, according to electrive.

The developers designed a new carbon front and modified the underlying structure because the production Cybertruck's stainless-steel front proved too rigid for the relevant impact tests, electrive reported.

Swiss approval would not automatically grant EU-wide type approval, electrive noted. While many Swiss vehicle regulations align with European and international standards, other markets may still require national individual or special approvals.
