Tesla continues to work at full speed for the Cybertruck model

The world of electric automobiles has been buzzing with anticipation over the much-vaunted Tesla Cybertruck. This all-electric, groundbreaking pickup truck was first introduced to the public by Elon Musk, Tesla's CEO, during a special event in Los Angeles on November 21, 2019. The truck's unique design and remarkable features sparked considerable interest, leading to a swift sellout of preorders within days. Despite this initial fanfare, the Cybertruck's official release to the public has been significantly delayed, with no units in circulation more than three years post-unveiling.

Latest reports indicate that Tesla is preparing for the manufacture of a whopping 375,000 Cybertrucks per year. Preliminary models are expected to launch by the end of August, with the first batch of deliveries slated for the tail end of the third quarter in 2023, probably in late September.

Speculation surrounding the Cybertruck has recently intensified as Tesla accelerates its production operations. Previous revelations by Electrek suggested that Tesla had asked suppliers to prepare for the unveiling of a Cybertruck prototype by late August and initiate production by early October. These claims have been fortified by recent leaked images from Tesla's Gigafactory in Texas, depicting glimpses of the production process.

An unexpected development occurred recently with the sighting of a Cybertruck prototype in New Zealand, right after it was offloaded from an airplane. Despite its covert transport, the unmistakable silhouette of the vehicle revealed its identity. This doesn't come as a surprise since Tesla has previously exploited New Zealand's local proving ground for winter testing. Although Alaska remains Tesla's primary location for cold weather evaluations, they use New Zealand's summer season to assess their vehicles' performance.

The sighting of the Cybertruck prototype hints that Tesla might be undergoing the final stages of testing before launching into production. With a bevy of impressive features, including four drive motors, all-wheel-drive capabilities, and rear-wheel steering, the Cybertruck is anticipated to thrive in challenging terrains such as snow and ice. As we wait with bated breath, it remains to be seen if Tesla's rigorous testing and development will satisfy the high benchmarks they've set for themselves.
