Tesla has officially introduced the first Cybertruck production model at its Texas Gigafactory. To mark this historic event, the company gathered for a group portrait at the facility, accompanied by their much-awaited all-electric pickup. While full-scale production is expected to begin in 2024, initial deliveries of the Cybertruck are expected to begin by the end of 2023.
The first Cybertruck has officially gone off the manufacturing line at Tesla’s renowned Texas Gigafactory, boasting its signature angular form and stainless steel body.
The Cybertruck has sparked excitement among fans and investors alike, as it promises to alter the whole notion of pickup trucks.
Despite the lack of an official announcement of the final production model, Tesla plans to begin delivery of this cutting-edge electric pickup truck in late 2023.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk told shareholders that challenges in producing the model’s radically designed stainless steel exoskeleton means capacity will be limited relative to the production of other Tesla models.
“It is going to be hard to make the Cybertruck cost affordable because it is a new car (with a) new manufacturing method,” he said.
“In the grand scheme of things, relative to the production rate of all the other cars we make, it (production) will be small.”
