This. It's testing/calibration equipment.

That is a really stupid article. Some commenter on some blog page said they tore down an early Model X and claims that all Tesla's are bad products and customers who buy them are stupid. And from that the author of the article concludes that the Cybertruck is going to be a bad product. I do...

I did! Though I think there are some in this thread with lower reservations numbers then me, like Tokyov. It all depends on pricing, availability, and specs. If there is a tri at near announcement pricing of $69,990 then I would pull the trigger on it. That said, dual motor is sufficient for my...

Interesting. I wonder if there is a pattern between those who no longer see this and those who still see it. I no longer see my Design on the reservation page. There are two differences between us, we have reserved different models and we have different places in line. My Reservation: Dual...

Yes, it was definitely there last week and now it is gone on my page. They are obviously making some changes in their system, though its difficult to say if it means much. As Crissa said, it was always more of a survey then locking you into a specific model anyways.

I am 99% sure this is just Elon humor. I don't think this is something they will really offer.

The CT is not a Tesla Halo vehicle like the X and S, it's a mid range vehicle more inline with the 3 and Y, as evidenced by what we have seen of its interior (not to mention announcement pricing placing it in the Y price range). For the same reason it likely wont have auto presenting doors, and...

The mode 3 has them. I have adjusted the frunk hood on mine before.

The source is a rando on X/Twitter. I doubt it's credible.

I doubt its sensify, as cool as that sounds. I don't think Brembo is planning for Sensify to come to market until end of 2024. My guess is that is an automatic tire inflater, which Tesla has a patent for. US20180297423 - AUTOMATIC TIRE INFLATION SYSTEM WITH THRU-HUB AIR FEED

These are much larger tires then those on a sedan like a Model 3, so this is about what I was expecting. Larger tires just cost more in general. Here is an image to show the tire size difference between these tires and those found on a Tesla Model 3. I do see some tires for as cheap as $217...

It's fake. Got to love people just making stuff up for the laughs and attention.

They already have a system that works. When order invites go out, you will be asked to configure and put down a non-refundable deposit ($2500 most likely, like with other Tesla's in this price range). They are not going to want to complicate things and piss off their customers. Your...

To be fair to MKBHD, the hot take he was replying to was "The Cybertruck will outsell the F150 by 2026", not 2030. That is unlikely to happen for the reasons he mentions. Even if it has the demand for it, its unlikely Tesla would be able to ramp it fast enough to eclipse the current F150 numbers...

I strongly believe Tesla will do this similar to the Model 3 reservations. What you choose in the pre-order screen is just data for them and likely won't lock you into ordering that model and a specific order queue. While it is possible what we selected there will matter, I personally think it...

They are building release candidates, not production units. These are vehicles produced to test and refine the manufacturing line. We are likely months away from production units. It is the first built in Austin, but it is not production and we are still months away from any cars intended for...

This is what I thought it was as well because it is grouped with the Cybertruck just like the Y and 3 are grouped together and the S and X are grouped together. To me, it implies it is part of the same platform. No clue what segment the robotaxi might be in.

I recall from past mentions that the nextgen platform also contain a non-revealed entry level vehicle that Tesla plans to sell at much higher volume then the 3/Y. This would round out their offerings so they have a vehicle(s) with a low price of entry more comparable with lower priced ice...

The 2023 Tesla Model X LR AWD with 20-Inch tires is rated at epa rated at 348 miles and it is rumored to have a 100 kWh battery size, plus or minus a few kilowatt (does anyone know for certain the battery size? Has it been confirmed?). I assume the Cybertruck will have worse efficiency due to...

Didn't they specifically say it was 10% over the existing 4680. Is that enough efficiency to get us to 500 miles in a relatively economical way? My gut (for whatever little that is worth) is telling me the initial release will not be at that range and we (or more accurately those who want/need...
