To show off the shatterproof glass that famously failed during the Cybertruck’s introduction in November 2019, Musk had Cybertruck designer Franz von Holzhausen repeating the stunt with a baseball that bounced of the passenger glass window.
Videos also showed the Cybertruck hauling a Space X rocket to demonstrate it can haul 11,000 pounds and has a payload of 2,500 pounds. The truck’s bed is six feet long, four feet wide and capable of carrying 4-foot-by-8-foot pieces of plywood with the back down, Musk said.
