Tesla has been a resounding success in the automotive market with its production vehicles. Variants such as Model 3 and Model Y are among people’s favorites, although, Elon Musk has always wanted to go beyond success.
The South African outlined plans for the electric car company that encompass trucks, vans, autonomous driving system and charging stations. In the vehicle section, the Tesla Cybertruck was able to win a space in the automotive segment despite not having made its official debut.
From the moment it was announced, it caused a sensation due to its physical and technical specifications. A rather peculiar design accompanied by electrified power were part of the features that were revealed at the time.
Knowing that it would be manufactured with space rocket materials (those used by SpaceX) also added a plus of curiosity and appeal towards the SUV. However, several events have consistently delayed its mass production.

Inside the Cybertruck
Several prototypes have managed to overcome the obstacles to be put to the test. Precisely, one of them has been driven by Whole Mars Catalog, who a few months ago uploaded a small fragment to their official Twitter account showing part of the interior.
The Tesla Cybertruck was driven at the Texas Gigafactory facilities. The video is short, so you can only see the transparent glass roof and the information screen located next to the driver.
The production of the pickup truck will enter the production phase in mid-2023, although with so many problems that Tesla has gone through with this model, it is not surprising that new circumstances will delay Elon Musk’s plans.
In addition, the physical and technical specifications along with the previously known price of the Cybertruck will be modified, as stated by the company’s CEO a few weeks ago.
“A lot has changed since then, so the specs and pricing will be different. I hate to give some sort of bad news. But I think there’s no way to anticipate the inflation that we’ve seen and the various problems,” Musk said at the Cyber Roundup shareholder event.
