PHOTOS appear to show the inside of the new £32,000 Tesla Cybertruck with a detachable sleeping pod - but it's divided opinion.

The snaps were posted to social media on Wednesday after they were reportedly taken at a day-long event Elon Musk held for Tesla shareholders.

One of the pics shows a monitor-sized dashboard screen with dangling wires, a spartan interior and a plastic pretzel-shaped steering wheel.

Another shows oblong seat levers poking out - but not the middle front seat eagerly sought by Cybertruck superfans.

The Cybertrunk has been displayed in public before, but this is the first time fans have had a glimpse of its interior that wasn't an artistic rendering.

Tesla enthusiasts were divided over the unconfirmed social media snaps of the motor.

One said: "Cybertruck's interior looks like it came from a 1980’s low budget sci-fi prop piece."

Another said: "The Rubbermaid interior looks cheap considering what you pay for a Cybertruck."

A third said: "It looks like something a four-year-old created with Lego blocks."

The Cybertruck is expected to go on sale for £32,000 ($39,000) with optional add-ons like a £19,500 ($24,000) detachable sleeping pod.

It comes after Elon Musk was left red-faced when the Cybertruck's so-called armoured glass was smashed by a metal ball during a live demonstration.

During a launch event in Los Angeles, Musk encouraged people to hit the vehicle with sledgehammers in an attempt to show of its impenetrable exterior.

However, a metal ball thrown by Tesla design chief Franz von Holzhausen proved too much for the motor, leaving two windows completely shattered.

Musk said "Oh my f***ing God - maybe that was a little too hard", before stating there is some room for improvement.
