They look like that because they have no detail.
A photo of anything else, seeing it at a smaller size, means missing some amount of detail, anything from a sense of depth to small components. Other cars all have small details which are usually related to issues like safety, aerodynamics, ergonomics, aesthetics and so forth. Many of these details are required to operate safely, which you might not even realize, including things like the curvature and shape of bumpers, visibility through mirrors, window design, and so forth.
The Cybertruck has none of these elements. The aesthetics, such as they are, revolve around specifically reducing and minimizing details, similar to the minimalist appearance in expensive houses. It does not include much in the way of safety design, or fuel efficient design (which still matters electric or not), or even ergonomics. Its lack of comfort to passengers is one of many notable faults. It is often described as resembling a child's drawing or bad render, and it's for the same reason. In both cases, the images lack fundamental elements which are even present in cars manufactured over a hundred years ago. Why does it look like that? Because it's a car shape minus every detail of a car that can be removed - full stop. Not just safely removed, but removed while still somewhat meeting the definition of being a car.
When you scale up something blocky but still a car, like a Jeep or something, you can see all the details. Even as square as a Jeep is, it has bumpers rounded and extended to reduce pedestrian injuries, crumple zones, flowing lines at specific points to reduce drag and aid fuel economy, clearly marked signal lights, doors built with human entry and exit in mind, windows that shatter safely but can't be peeled off the frame by hand, collision detection, fuel tanks that won't explode and so on. If you project a picture of a Cybertruck on the side of a building at actual size, it looks pretty much like a real life Cybertruck. A dumpster looks like a Cybertruck because it's the same zero detail shape. You think it looks big because your brain is going "wow there's that shape that has the detail of an image on my phone screen, wait why is it a thousand times bigger than the same image?"
When you scale up a Cybertruck it no substantive change in detail level, which makes it looks exactly the same, and that feels wrong. It looks like a toy at any size because a toy isn't supposed to work within and around living people, it just rolls along the ground and you try not to trip or choke on it. The bigger version of the small thing should come into sharper focus in person. A Cybertruck does not.
It's kind of funny because everything about it, even the uncanny appearance in person, always traces back to the fundamental truth, that it is a terrible vehicle.
