I'ts about the state of charge (SoC). If you let it sit at a high SoC then the battery is degraded. Think of it as a baloon. If you inflate the baloon and let it sit, it will become limp and lose some tension that cannot be regained. I keep my MYP charge at 50%, and always plugged in when home...
Elon stated on the shareholders meeting that Tesla will certify the Cybertruck for Europe next year. So maybe I was pesimistic with the 2027 prediction. (Certification implies tweaks to meet EU regulations - obviously, given all previous tesla models)
Elon has said he wants to build locally. As there is no way for Tesla to meet the US demand in the next few years, our best bet is manufacturing in Berlin or some other yet to be built location. I was hoping 2024 but looks more like 2027 atm.
EU regulations are not the issue. We have RAMs and...
The Tesla autowipers use the camera. Running joke how they can make the cars drive themselves but not wipe the windshield. Perhaps if they add in the microphone and use the AI to listen to the rain. In addition to using the camera...
If Tesla were to sell the truck for 50k. Then you would see massive flipping for 100k+.
Now that they are charging 100k off the bat. Then Tesla can keep that profit.
Price will for sure come down eventually.
Too bad for those with multiple reservations hoping to make an easy dollar.
I have a 1131* reservation.
That pretty much debunks the early reservation theory. My dual motor FSD specs are now missing. I don't expect a ship coming to Sweden any time soon.
Pretty sure they are just preparing the website for the start of delivery, not likely relevant for me.
How it will actually pan out:
Email to south USA tri-motor reservation holders.
"Dear Cybertruck customer,
As Elon previously stated, Tesla will start releasing the Quad-motor version of the CT. We are now opening the configurator for you to upgrade - if you so wish. Delivery time Sep-Dec...
We have RAMs and F150s here in Scandinavia. Ford is even running ads for the ICE version.
My assumption is that we will get the CT eventually as Elon accepted my preorder.
But when should I expect it??? Order no. 200k or so.
Will it be shipped from the US or we must wait for a Berlin...
Elon keeps saying "Prototypes are easy, production is hard", this does not mean Tesla is unable to produce any vehicles.
Saying it will be "hard to make it affordable", means just that. It will be affordable, but it will take some effort to make it so.
I interpret this to highligt the...
I keep thinking how I would mount my wench.
I imagine the winch is frunk or bed mounted. Frunk mount would have some passthrough to operate with hood closed.
I recommend "Tesla Daily" or "Electrified" if you don't appreciate the click bait style of the guys at "Now You Know"
