Tesla has developed a universe of aptly named accessories for the Cybertruck, including some like a Cybercooler that it hasn't yet released to the public.

Besides the Cybertruck accessories it already launched, Tesla has apparently been developing other intriguing solutions.

Perhaps the coolest accessory prototype for the Cybertruck is the aptly named Cybercooler that has the same edgy design and fits perfectly in the frunk.

While great for tailgating parties with the Cybertruck, the Cybercooler is yet to see the light of day and will probably do when enough of Tesla's electric pickups are out and about.

It has a stainless steel finish that blends perfectly with the Cybertruck's design, but that very fact would probably mean quite the steep price tag if and when Tesla launches it to the public.

Speaking of the frunk, the team that showcased the known and hidden Cybertruck accessories also demoed the frunk hood sensor action.

The hood closes with a careful movement and reacts immediately when it detects an object, so even a soft banana placed at the frunk's edge remained intact.

The presenter also showed how the controversial Cybertruck Basecamp tent accessory gets set up, and it actually looks good when unfurled, albeit nothing like the original renders.

"This is luxurious," says the tester after setting up the $2,975 Basecamp tent, which then gets compared with the rooftop tent accessory for the Rivian R1T, one of the Cybertruck's main competitors.

It all ended with both testers sleeping in the tents of their respective electric pickups and then waking up to a nice hot cup of coffee from the machine plugged in the outlets of the truck's bed.
