1) One thing, if accurately depicted would have to do with the continuous narrowing of the bonnet/windscreen surface as it ascends towards the roof apex.
2) Even if flowing straight rearwards, it will 'fall' off the edge of the narrowing 'panel' and over the front quarter panel or A-pillar.
3) The air mass is attacking the forebody of CYBERTRUCK all the way to the windshield header, over the sides to the cut line between the two doors, wheel arch extenders, and to the bottom of the airdam area's converger.
4) I'd like to see identical views as depicted in Dassault's Exa PowerFlow.
