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...

The original prototype at the reveal did. We have not had confirmation of it since. Its one of the features I really hope stays, it would be nice for situational awareness while driving without having to toggle on the rearview camera on the touchscreen. On my model 3 I don't use the rearview...

I remember all the people complaining it was too big after the reveal and asking if it would fit in a garage. They were rather vocal about in on reddit and twitter. Reacting to that, Elon said they ere going to shrink it, so this is not a huge shock. Personally I am going to garage my...

A7 is from art for the Cyberpunk 2077 video game

If it is like the Model 3, then you would get an invite and be able to configure a car from the options available at the time you receive the invite. If you don't want any of those available models, you would just not fill it out and wait. That being said, I can't guarantee they won't do it...

This is certainly possible. For the Model Y launch, it wasn't region limited in the US when it launched, their were deliveries outside of California on day one from what my research shows. It was a very different launch then the Model 3, where they staggered out by region. But they had never...

Yes, and they will not receive invites to configure until such a time as the Cybertruck is available in their region.

This is inline with my assumptions as well. Tesla would send out enough invites at a time to match their current production rate for a period of time (probably a month or so of production if I was to guess) and begin the order process on those vehicles. They would then send out a second round...

It would be highly unlike Tesla to have a feature like this not be on all trims due to their focus on manufacturing efficiency. Having a version with and without a midgate is not a minor part that can be swapped in and out on the line. It would require large differences in the manufacturing of...

I doubt they would invite in 50k chunks and hopefully not 1 million, that would just piss a ton of people off and likely overwhelm the people responsible for processing orders. It would probably be in much smaller chunks based on how many vehicles they are currently producing per week. At the...

It will most likely be in batches based on reservation # and maybe other things like location. How it has worked in the past is that once you receive an invite to configure, you could choose not configure at that time and hold onto the configuration until the model you want is released, and...

I love road tripping in Tesla's and having small breaks to stretch your legs. It doesn't add substantial time onto the trips once you get used to it and have an idea where to stop. I prefer to stop more frequently (every 90 to 120 minutes) and stretch my legs, grab a coffee, use the bathroom...

Where have you heard it is only a feature of the Tri-Motor? I don't think Tesla has ever told us if it is limited to certain trims or not. I don't think four wheel steering (4ws) as a technology is necessarily dependent on motor count. I believe you could have it with a single, dual, tri, or...

Nice catch! That is a feature I really want. My Model 3 seats are generally comfortable, but they can get a bit hot on long drives.
