A bizarrely strange Cybertruck knockoff has been spotted.
But this Tesla copycat is not even American.
Instead, it has been found on these snowy streets.
It might just be the most ridiculous knockoff that you will ever see.

Cybertruck tribute spotted…in Russia?!
Okay, so this is quite the story.
It is known that Tesla‘s fandom reaches far and wide across all corners of the globe.
But a person has actually decided to make a literal, moving tribute to the Cybertruck.
Today’s story comes from the snowy streets of Russia.
And it features a truly strange Cybertruck knockoff.

What you are looking at is a homemade tribute to the Tesla Cybertruck.
This oddly-shaped van was spotted rolling through the streets of Russia earlier this week.
And, naturally enough, it has quickly started going viral.

Is the knockoff the most sincere form of flattery?
This bizarre van was captured on the streets of the city of Perm.
And the most striking thing is that it features the same exposed body panels as the Cybertruck does.
But the tribute only begins there.

Black fender flares wrap around the wheel arches, matching the dark wheels underneath.
There’s even an LED lightbar up front – exactly the same as the original.
Okay – so somebody has done a surprisingly impressive job at replicating the Cybertruck.
What is this Cybervan actually based on?
But what is the actual van underneath all of the exposed bodypanels?
It is not known for sure, but it is most likely a V90 electric van from Chinese brand Weiqiao New Energy.
As you can probably see, the original V90 already borrowed more than a few styling cues from the Tesla pickup truck.

What is different is that the usual sliding side doors and split tailgate have been replaced.
This would suggest that a few creative liberties have been taken by the owner.
The company logos on the side of the Cybertruck knockoff would appear to point to an attempt to promote the owner’s business.
And, to their credit, they have done a surprisingly good job, too.
