As you are fully aware, it does not imply any bull bars can be type approved (and there are a lot less such new cars as there were in the 90's and 00's in our country).

So: 1) the regulation you said does not exist does in fact exist,

    2) it may be one of the reasons the Cybertruck is not yet type approved.

Time will tell, if and when Tesla manages to register it, possibly with some changes to the construction. Or it will deem the EU market too small for that.

Do you genuinely believe that if there were any way to get this thing type approved in an EU country, no one would have done so by now?
