All you need to know about new Tesla Cybertruck

Tesla's Cybertruck is supposed to go into production in late 2021 for the single, and double-motor RWD versions. The three-motor RWD versions are scheduled for production in late 2022.

Elon Musk himself has described the Cybertruck as “a really futuristic-like cyberpunk, Blade Runner pickup”. The vehicle features an exoskeleton rather than a chassis. Cybertruck is made of unusually thick 3 mm (1⁄8 in) stainless steel body panels, which cannot be formed in a stamping press, hence the panels can only be bent along straight lines, resulting in a very edgy design that has been described as origami-like.

The car has 6 seats and is also equipped with a bed, which the designers called Cybertruck vault. The top is covered, however, it can unroll if the user wants to fit something higher than the roof allows.

Three versions of the Tesla Cybertruck are going to be available with different battery packs and configuration of the drive system. The single motor RWD version will offer approximately 400 km of range. A dual motor all-wheel-drive version will reach 480 km of range, and a tri-motor version will have 800 km of range on a single charge.

The price for a  base, single-motor model will start at US $39,900. The two-motor RWD version starts at US $49,900, and the three motor version will cost US $69,900 and up. Customers can also opt for a US $7,000 self-driving feature that might increase in price in the future, according to a statement by Tesla’s official website.

There are many safety regulations throughout the world, and each market has slightly different variations. That means that the Tesla Cybertruck we see right now on their website might look a bit different when it comes to production. For instance, the truck does not have side mirrors, which are certainly required for a vehicle to be registered in most, if not all, countries worldwide.
