PAKEFIELD, SUFFOLK –  Unveiled at London Olympia’s Motor Show, Schlepp’s low-budget alternative to Tesla’s Cybertruck has already made waves. Though perhaps not for the reasons he intended.

Move over, Elon Musk. Suffolk’s own Jeffrey Schlepp, the man behind such illustrious creations as the “Solarcar” and the aeronautical flying car powered by flavoured milk, is back—this time with his latest automotive masterpiece: the Cyberdump.

Priced at a modest £250, the Cyberdump offers none of the flashy technology or AI-infused sophistication of its electric rival. Instead, Schlepp has opted for a more, shall we say, recycled approach. The Cyberdump consists of a well-used skip mounted on the chassis of a Yugo Zastava. Yes, that’s right, a literal garbage skip. Schlepp insists that this offers the same “rugged durability” as the Tesla, without the unnecessary frills of touchscreen dashboards or autonomous driving.

Will carry a mattress

“At its core, the Cyberdump is about simplicity and safety,” Schlepp explained to a bewildered audience of four people. Most of whom had wandered over from the food court. “It’s got that unbreakable, industrial feel. If you hit something, trust me, it’s not the Cyberdump that’s going to get hurt.”

True to form, Schlepp’s creation is laughably impractical, lacking any resemblance to modern electric vehicles. The Yugo Zastava chassis ensures a 0–60 mph time of roughly never.

While the skip offers ample storage for discarded dreams. Critics have described the design as “brutalist garbage chic,” while others have wondered whether Schlepp accidentally combined his love of DIY with his weekly trash collection.

Cybertruck in big competition

With Tesla boasting bulletproof windows and sleek electric powertrains, Schlepp’s Cyberdump may not pose a direct threat. But as the underdog hero of British eccentricity, Schlepp has once again proven that, in his world, it’s not about innovation—it’s about improvisation.
