After years of delays, the Tesla Cybertruck is finally entering mass production. Photos shared by CEO Elon Musk showed the final version of the Cybertruck, which will be a “production candidate”. Musk also excited us by being behind the wheel in one of the photos.
Tesla Cybertruck could be on the roads in 2024
Elon Musk announced that Tesla wants to organize a delivery event for the first Cybertruck models in the third quarter of the year. However, mass production is not expected to start until 2024. This means that pre-order customers will have to wait. It has been reported that over 1 million pre-orders have been placed for Cybertruck so far.
The Cybertruck, which has a stainless steel body and an angular design, was first unveiled in 2019. Elon Musk said they would start production towards the end of 2021. However, there were many delays and production was delayed until 2024.
In July, Tesla built the first Cybertruck prototype in Giga Texas. The price of the electric pickup has not yet been announced, but the first options ranged from 40 thousand to 70 thousand dollars. Inflation and rising production costs suggest that these tags will also increase.
In previous statements, Musk said Cybertruck “feels like the future”. But he also acknowledged that it was likely to be somewhat unsuccessful in sales due to its unusual design.
The wait for the millions of customers who pre-ordered the Cybertruck may soon be over, as Tesla begins preparations for its first deliveries. But mass production will be Tesla’s next challenge.
