We're officially less than two weeks away from the big-time debut of Tesla's all-new pick-up truck. Dubbed the Cybertruck, we're anticipating a groundbreaking reveal.
After all the hype, anything less will be catastrophically bad.
And, frankly, given Elon Musk's approach with previous reveals, it seems to be a safe bet that this will follow in previous unveiling's footsteps. Essentially, I think it's safe to say Musk will debut a truck in concept form with a lead time of 2-3 years from becoming reality. This tactic allows him to delay and pad the stats for his production units when they eventually hit the streets.
With the Model Y, Semi and Roadster all in the Tesla pipeline, there's already a lot on Tesla's plate. But, the pick-up truck may be its most important product.
Having said that, Agent 001 compiled a list of what's been said around the 'net. Largely from Musk himself,
this is everything we know about the upcoming Cybertruck. Are we missing anything?
