Something in this image is wrong.

and the tail lights were modified to meet EU regulations. It was then registered in Albania, so is running Albanian plates, and that’s it, the Cybertruck is fine to conquer Europe. Great.

Although conquer is a strong word, as from Charalambous’ latest update on life with the truck I’d hardly say that it’s thriving. The problems start when he tries to charge
at a Tesla dealer, where despite numerous adapters and assistance from staff he can’t get the truck to charge up.
There are also issues with the car’s software, which isn’t set up for UK roads so the Cybertruck and its navigation systems are stuck in California. I’m sure that’s not annoying at all when navigating London’s difficult maze of narrow streets
, bus lanes and one-way systems. Thankfully, the techies Charalambous speaks with assure him that a software update should fix that.

In addition to that, the Tesla team that Charalambous questions explain that no dealer in the UK has access to the files explaining how to work on the ridiculous vehicle. This means that should something go wrong or another Cybertruck recall get issued
, there will be little support available for him and his gargantuan truck.
Tight squeeze.
