The Tesla upgrade shop is not only the first company to install aftermarket wheels on a Cybertruck but, the shop also has several Cybertrucks delivered to them by customers for wrapping.

T Sportline has already completed a beautiful matte black wrap on one of the first 10 Foundation Series Cybertrucks which were handed over to customers by Elon Musk at the delivery event.

In a series uncovering the Cybertruck's inner workings, T Sportline has already shown us what lies behind the bumpers, the auxiliary power lines on the roof that power the optional lightbar, Bluetooth sensors hidden behind the Cybertruck fenders used for the proximity sensor that unlock the truck and that are used to communicate with wheel components and other hidden details.

Everything we’ve seen so far has been interesting however, T Sportline’s newest Cybertruck teardown video might just be the most interesting so far. In their latest video, T Sportline reveals the hidden Cybertruck details behind the frunk.

T Sportline begins the Cybertruck teardown by removing the frunk. This process is relatively easy. First, you will need to remove the top liner, unscrew six bolts, take off the washer fluid cap, and that’s it, the frunk is off.

What lies beneath is the Cybertruck’s inner components. Right off the bat, you see the Cybertruck’s giant wiper blade motor. The Cybertruck at 50 inches has the largest single wiper blades and to power it Tesla has outfitted the truck with equally ginormous motors.

Another bit that is noticeable in the Cybertruck teardown is the truck’s single gigantic front giga casting. Brian from T Sportline checks the Giga Casting for magnetism but, made from aluminium the Giga Casting is not magnetic.

This is exciting and around the middle to the top, you can see the Cybertruck’s 48-volt battery. The Cybertruck is the first vehicle to launch with a 48-volt low-voltage architecture. You can see two pins that can be used to charge or jump the Cybertruck if the battery happens to die.

All these components were expected and have been known at least since the delivery day however, there is one component beneath the Cybertruck frunk that was not expected. And that is an auxiliary 48-volt power line.

This is simply a free powerline that is not attached to anything. So what’s surprising about this? Similar to the one found beneath the frunk, Tesla has included another auxiliary powerline on the Cybertruck roof.

This power line is used to connect to the Cybertruck’s optional lightbar accessory that can light the road 5 football fields ahead.

Tesla has already shown off this accessory however, the newfound auxiliary powerline under the frunk suggests that Tesla is planning to hook up another Cybertruck accessory around the frunk area.

At this point, it’s not clear what kind of accessory Tesla has in mind or whether Tesla just left the option for 3rd party installers however, according to T Sprotline this powerline has the ability to deliver 400 watts of power.

In addition to these exciting features, T Sportline has uncovered other gems in their Cybertruck teardown including a component called the “MEGABEAM” and supermanifold V2 which are both parts of the vehicle cooling and heating system.

It has been wonderful to uncover all the Cybertruck hidden parts however, in typical Tesla fashion, there were also minor issues in the inner components of the vehicle.

One of the issues T Sportline uncovered was that the shroud for the air intake for the cooling system was not snapped all the way in. This is not a big deal, however, long term, this minor oversight can contribute to parts failing early or cause rattles and sounds.

Besides that one complaint, everything appears to be in place and the Cybertruck’s inner look is as fascinating as the outside.

Currently, since this is a customer-owned vehicle, T Sportline did not teardown the vehicle all the way to destruction, however, we’ll be sure to keep you posted once more through Cybertruck teardown are released.

Until then, make sure to visit our site torquenews.com/Tesla regularly for the latest updates.

So what do you think? Excited to see Cybertruck’s inner components? What accessories do you think Tesla has in mind for the frunk? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
