Tesla’s Cybertruck order page was recently updated to change up expected production and delivery timelines. The start timelines for the Dual-Motor and Tri-Motor variants’ estimated production have been updated quite a bit. Presumably, the many preorders have influenced this time change.
Do you wonder how you might feel to catch this in your rearview mirror or camera as it smoothly and quickly bolts by? Am I dreaming about Bond, or is this a first spotting in the wild of the hyper-popular, hyper-controversial Cybertruck? Driving near Tesla’s HQ in California, how could it be anything else?
I had this article in drafts before Frugal Moogal wrote a piece similarly trying to address “controversy” around the $100 refundable preorder cost for a Tesla Cybertruck and the news of 200,000 preorders. However, I have slightly different framing — despite seemingly agreeing on the same two core points — so I feel compelled to still put this piece out there.
