The Tesla Cybertruck is an all-electric pickup truck unveiled by Tesla in 2019. It features a distinctive angular design and is built with a stainless steel exoskeleton for durability. The vehicle offers impressive performance metrics, including rapid acceleration and substantial towing capacity.
Production of the Cybertruck commenced in November 2023 at Tesla’s Gigafactory in Texas. The initial delivery event took place on November 30, 2023, where the first units were handed over to customers.
Recent developments have seen the Cybertruck involved in various incidents. Notably, four Cybertrucks were destroyed by fire in Seattle’s SoDo industrial district, amid rising protests targeting Elon Musk. The fire, reported late Sunday night, did not result in any injuries and affected only the trucks. The Seattle Police and ATF are investigating the incident, part of a series of recent anti-Tesla actions including arson at charging stations near Boston and gunfire at an Oregon dealership.
In a show of support for Tesla, President Donald Trump recently purchased a red Tesla Model S. He announced the purchase on social media, expressing admiration for the car and planning to keep it at the White House for staff use. This move comes as Tesla faces challenges, including declining sales and stock prices.
