IIRC the data coming out of the Conti radars was preprocessed to give bearing, distance, and size of an object in the FOV of the unit. I don't know if I ever saw the true raw data out of one of them, but I'm curious what it looks like.

Ye I have a hard time imaganing how a car radar image looks like.

On boat radars it seems like the radar have really high resolution (can see much further than lidars) but have worse accuracy. I.e. things looks like blobs.

A lidar image at 50+ meters is very sparse.

I'd be curious if the design of the Cybertruck affects readings at all. It's got angles straight outta an F-117.

I think "stealth" planes assumes the radar is under the plane on the ground? For the geometry. And they have some color or alloy that reflect less.

I reckon it's probably not that bad, there are big surfaces that are almost normal to what would be incoming radio energy. Stealth shapes tend to reflect energy in a completely different direction from the source.

Here's the closest thing to data I've been able to find. I have no idea what to do with this info.
