Tesla Cybertruck

The Tesla Cybertruck is a battery electric full-size pickup truck built by Tesla, Inc.. First announced in November 2019, pilot production began in July 2023, with deliveries planned to start November 30, 2023 after being pushed back multiple times. Three models are expected to be offered, with EPA range estimates of and an estimated 0 to 60 mph time of 2.9–6.5 seconds, depending on the model. History Between the years 2012 and 2013, Elon Musk discussed the desire to build a truck with self-levelling suspension, making comparisons with a Ford F-250. In early 2014 Musk predicted 4–5 years before work could start on the product. In mid-2016, Musk outlined the intent for a new kind of consumer pickup truck, and suggested using the same chassis for a van and a pickup truck. In late 2017, the size was estimated to be at least that of a Ford F-150, to be large enough to enable a "game-changing" feature. During the Tesla Semi and Tesla Roadster unveiling in November 2017, a picture of a "pickup truck that can carry a pickup truck" was displayed. Background ideas had been in preparation for nearly five years. In late 2018, Musk anticipated a prototype to be ready to show in 2019.
