Throughout final month’s This autumn 2020 Earnings Name, Tesla CEO Elon Musk mentioned his firm had completed the design of the Cybertruck and is sort of executed with its engineering. After the decision, we reported on how we thought the decision raised doubts about the Exoskeleton. Final yr, we reported that Elon threw out the thought of downsizing the truck, and as an alternative, mentioned the truck would endure “small improvements” to its design after issues about its means to slot in a residential storage or parking house.
Effectively, after showing on Joe Rogan’s podcast for the third time, that appears to be the case.
“That’s just about what it [the Cybertruck] will seem like, with very small variations. You recognize, we adjusted the dimensions a couple of p.c. Like round 3% or smaller. You don’t need it to be a few inches too massive for the tunnel,” mentioned Musk.
He’s in fact referring to the Boring Company’s tunnel. The Cybertruck match however was “fairly comfortable.” Perhaps that 3 p.c did the trick.
Apparently, final yr Musk mentioned 3 p.c can be too small, guess he had a change of coronary heart.
So far as manufacturing goes, there is likely to be a small delay. At present on Tesla’s Cybertruck order site, the anticipated manufacturing date of the the dual- and tri-motor fashions is about for late 2021. Nonetheless, which may not be the case. Musk says there shall be “a couple of deliveries” in direction of the top of this yr with quantity manufacturing taking place someday in 2022.
