00:00Imagine Tesla's co-founder calling the Cybertruck dumpster-looking and saying Elon Musk ruined the $25,000 EV dream.
00:07That's exactly what happened.
00:08Martin Eberhard, Tesla's original co-founder, says he was disappointed when Elon Musk scrapped the planned affordable $25,000 electric vehicle.
00:16He argued Tesla canceled the low-end car program, What the World Needs, in favor of developing the Cybertruck, a vehicle he bluntly described as looking like a dumpster.
00:25Eberhard also voiced skepticism about Tesla's push into robo-taxis and full self-driving, warning that it's alarming a prototype that sometimes fails and causes fatalities could be road-ready.
00:35In short, one of Tesla's early architects says Musk's pivot away from an accessible $25,000 EV and toward the polarizing Cybertruck and autonomous robo-taxis left him deeply disappointed.
