Had a chance to see one of these "up close" today.
My god is it an ugly turd!  Clearly someone was

Can it actually *carry* any cargo?

 I saw a prototype and it had a lot of sharp metal seams that looked
dangerous to me. I though they would be fixed in the production

Since about the time I was born, whoever owns the Chrysler brand doesn't know what to do with Chrysler and is always in the process of throwing a hail Mary to try to save the brand.
The PT Cruiser was one of the more successful Marys, also unlike the Cybertruck it only cost the equivalent of about $28k base price when it debuted.
