CyberEvolution From CyberTruck to CyberVAN

From CyberTruck to CyberVAN 

Design Concept by JAKE EHRLICH

I have been on a roll with imagineering the future of Tesla's Cyber Platform, and it dawned on me I should create a simple graphic that shows how I believe the form factor will/should evolve from CyberTruck in 2024 up through the CyberVAN which I believe Tesla will soon launch, and then two years further into my design reference for a CyberVAN sans steering wheel and front facing front seats, and here it is:

On the CyberTruck I took the liberty of adding my JAKEe rear sail panel, which I think makes the CyberTruck look a million times better. I came up with the idea to do that and published it 6 years ago, and ever since then have thought adding that element makes the CyberTruck look complete.

Another reason I was compelled to complete this graphic, beside it looking really cool, is it shows that both my 2026 and 2028 CyberVAN concept designs are profoundly identical in height, length, width and wheelbase to the current CyberTruck, and thus I assume would cost about the same amount to manufacture.

Back in 2022 Elon Musk Tweeted "Maybe Tesla should make a highly configurable RoboVan for people and cargo?" Musk also hinted that a RoboVan would be bigger than a Model X when he attended a Tesla Owners of Silicon Valley confab, and on an earnings call he said "Tesla is definitely going to make an electric van at some point."

On October 10, 2024 Tesla showed off their Robovan concept at an event named "We Robot", which is super cool and designed to carry up to 20 passengers as seen below. I think the Tesla Robovan is awesome, but much larger than most families would want, need or require. Also, since my CyberVAN is identical to a CyberTruck in length, width, height and wheelbase, it could be parked in a standard garage, where the RoboVAN definitely could NOT be parked in a standard size home garage. I created the graphic below which shows the scale difference in between my Tesla CyberVAN concept (front), and Tesla's RoboVAN (rear).

Update: September 27, 2025: I recently started noticing these new FedEx electric delivery vans all over the place, an could not help but notice the silhouette is very similar to the RoboVAN pictured above.

I couldn't resist the temptation to see what my CyberVan would look like beside the FedEx Electric Delivery can, so I created this graphic. By the way, I think the new FedEx deliver van looks AMAZING!!!!!
