Once again the Tesla magic will come again as the Cybertruck. Will this retro-future e-SUV leave its mark or join other endeavours like the Edsel?
Another bombshell has exploded in the automotive world, and as usual, Tesla has made the news. Like Steve Jobs, the presentation electrified everyone until the big reveal on the stage. The Tesla Cybertruck was different from all the reports and speculations that preceded the big reveal, it was not what everyone expected. A side shot to this is the Dubai Police force is willing to fork out the money to get one of their own. They are famous for purchasing the most exotic supercars on the planet and have an extensive collection. Another is the price of $39,900 is the given tag price, but it can change.
Tesla's influence on the electric car market and the soon to be hotly contested e-SUV niche. No doubt, SUV fans are lining up to get this hot item. So, much that 250,000 orders were tendered by interested parties. Design of the truck was something from one of the corny Sci-Fis that featured a wedged and angular body. Far from the more retro and boxy B-1 and B-2 Bollinger offering and the Rivian, the wedge makes it look-like a land-based F-111 stealth plane. So, there is a boxy and yet sleek design which is so far very unique compared to the typical Tesla style.
