The Tesla Cybertruck, despite being a full-size truck, can snugly fit into a relatively compact garage alongside a Model Y, as demonstrated in a recent post on X (formerly known as Twitter). The image of this garage arrangement went viral, with many people commenting on the close quarters. However, the owner subsequently provided additional photo evidence to validate the practicality of this setup.

It all began when a social media user challenged the Tesla owner to showcase both of his electric vehicles parked inside the garage. The challenge was accepted, but the resulting photo left many people feeling uneasy about the feasibility of safely maneuvering the cars in and out of the garage. Some made light of the situation, joking that the driver must have made a getaway through the air vents, while others humorously compared the fit to Ace Ventura’s parking prowess, saying the Cybertruck fits “like a glove.”

The owner of the Cybertruck and the Model Y is Paul Clark, a photographer and content creator from Austin, Texas who is also a big Tesla fan. Following the response to his unique garage layout, Clark published more photos taken from different angles, showing that the EVs remain accessible, despite being close to each other.

Some commenters suggested that if the driver’s doors of the vehicles faced each other, it would allow for more room when getting in and out. Although this is a valid point, the owner mentioned a preference for aligning the charging ports with the plugs. He added that he can still use all of the doors of both EVs “comfortably.”

According to Tesla, the Cybertruck has a width of 95 inches (2,413.3 mm), or 86.64 inches (2,200.7 mm) when the mirrors are folded. When you factor in the width of the Model Y, which is 75.6 inches (1,920 mm) wide, along with the average shoulder width of a person, you would need at least 199 inches (5,050 mm) of space to park the EVs side by side while still allowing for comfortable ingress and egress.

Although we don’t have the precise dimensions of Clark’s garage, it appears to be a tight fit, and one would need to exercise caution to avoid any contact between the Cybertruck’s exoskeleton and the walls. Nevertheless, all these parking concerns will likely become a thing of the past in the fully autonomous era when vehicles will effortlessly park themselves in the most space-efficient manner, eliminating the need for human intervention.
