Shoot Cybertruck
The Tesla Cybertruck was announced years ago with much fanfare. One of the spearheads of the equally angular and beastly pick-up: its bullet-resistant sheet metal. The American manufacturer Rezvani is certainly not impressed by this. “If you really want a car, get it bulletproof then you want a Rezvani,” says the brand.
Although the Tesla Cybertruck was only presented in its final form at the end of November last year, the angular pick-up was driven onto the stage for the first time by CEO Elon Musk in 2019. At the time, Tesla’s marketing machine was working overtime. For the Cybertruck, it has devised, among other things, bullet-resistant sheet metal, sheet metal that, in addition to being extremely heavy, should also make the Tesla Cybertruck relatively safe for people who are not only under verbal fire. American car builder Rezani, like Tesla, has also fueled his marketing apparatus and is going to war against one of Cybertruck’s most striking features.
“Let’s face it: It’s not that hard to make a vehicle bulletproof as long as you have a very narrow definition of the word ‘bullet,'” claims Rezvani. According to Rezvani, a recent YouTube video from the channel JerryRigEverything shows that it Although the stainless steel sheet metal of the Tesla Cybertruck can withstand 9 mm bullets, the bodywork is certainly not resistant to bullets of a larger caliber. “If you have to compete against .223 bullets from an AK47 or ‘even’ 5.56 ammunition, then you want something higher quality than thick steel,” Rezvani continues. According to the small American car manufacturer, the sheet metal of the Cybertruck is also potentially dangerous to others if it is shot at, as bullets can ricochet.
Why Rezvani virtually pees on the Tesla Cybertruck? Of course to promote his own goods. Rezvani, which, unlike Tesla, bases its models on products from other brands, sells the bulletproof Rezvani Tank and Vengeance. According to Rezvani, this duo is equipped with a lightweight body made of a composite that is resistant to more violent bullets than those from a 9 mm pistol. “From .22, .357 to 7.62 bullets. Better yet, our cars ‘absorb’ the bullets instead of deflecting them,” says Rezvani. Referring to the fact that bullets would get stuck in the sheet metal of the Tank and Vengeance. Another reason why you, as an American gang member or local mafia boss, should buy a Rezvani: unlike that of the Tesla Cybertruck, the glass of the Rezvani is also bulletproof.
The Rezvani Tank and Vegeance can also be equipped with items such as safes, bulletproof vests and helmets, a system that can create a smoke screen, night cameras, door handles that can be electrified and so on. That is also marketing.
