[Electric Rivilution]

Don't think I've ever seen a company bullet testing a mass production vehicle.

That isn't bullet proof testing.. I can assure you, my bullets would pierce stainless sheets that thin.

 

[Donald Stanfield]

Well yeah. With how ugly it is I'd imagine lots of people are going to shoot at them. Sarcasm, don't actually shoot at one.

 

[COdogman]

Well at least they have their priorities in order.

3500 lbs payload is going to mean it needs to weigh less than 6500 lbs. I'm pretty doubtful they can pull that off, but maybe.

The SS skin is bulletproof, against small caliber handguns. (i.e. .380, 9mm, 45ACP) What matters in this claim is at what velocity of a round does penetration begin at?

Someone will figure it out one day...

Someone commented that it was “Baltimore tested” hahaha

 

[HighVoltOverland]

ahh yes the old industry standard "Tommy Gun" test

The first deliveries to Chicago will probably give us the first real world testing. Bullet resistant, maybe... proof, never.

I'll try to get a small sheet of 1/8" 300 series stainless and take it to the range in couple weeks. I'd like to know what caliber makes it through.

If I’m not mistaken, a bulletproof vest using steel plates have steel that is at least 5mm thick.

If the CT is 3mm thick, I have a hard time believing these “bullets” were at velocity.

But, I’ll be happy to see an idiot try on their own CT

"uh yeah, Allstate? I've got some hail damage to my Cybertruck."

"That's correct, only on the doors."

I bet all bullets 9mm and larger get through from within 10 yards.

Maybe it’ll stop a .22 pellet haha

Yeah but those plates are rifle rated. Theres a huge difference between a 9mm and a .308 rifle.
