Tesla’s Cybertruck won’t get smaller any time soon
[ad_1] Is Tesla’s Cybertruck too enormous for your garage? Unfortunately, you’ll have to shop for something else. Elon Musk has revealed that the electric pickup will stay “pretty much” the size of the prototype despite previous claims the production model would get smaller. There isn’t much room to shrink after a design review, according to […]
Elon Musk is ‘scouting’ new US locations for Cybertruck, Model Y production
[ad_1] So what’s next after making a million Teslas?

The Hot Wheels RC Cybertruck is a mini Tesla for $400
[ad_1] The Hot Wheels Cybertruck R/C has all the details you would expect for a toy that costs a few hundred dollars, including rows of front and rear lights and the distinctive rear cover with a telescoping tailgate.

Tesla’s Cybertruck found its way into a Travis Scott music video
[ad_1] It’s not clear how the EVs ended up in Scott’s video. We’ve asked Tesla for comment. There’s a good possibility Scott or the producers have a close connection with Elon Musk, though.

People spotted the truck stopped in traffic, and […]
Tesla’s electric ATV should launch at the same time as the Cybertruck
[ad_1] Musk also toyed with the prospect of designing an electric dirt bike for those who prefer two-wheeled adventures, although he didn’t say how serious he was about the prospect. You can forget about an electric motorcycle, though. Musk felt motorbikes were “too dangerous,” citing a near-fatal collision with a truck when he was 17. […]
Tesla Cybertruck will join Dubai’s eclectic police fleet
[ad_1] The force has been criticized at times for a fleet whose vehicles are frequently more about showing off than catching crooks. It doesn’t really need an ultra-rare Aston Martin One-77 for pursuits. The Cybertruck, however, could be genuinely practical. The dual-motor version arriving in 2021 is quicker off the line than most cars, and […]
Ford will pass on a tug-of-war with Tesla’s Cybertruck
[ad_1] Ford added that it was going to have electrified trucks regardless, including a hybrid F-150 in 2020 and a fully electric F-150 in “a few years.” There might not be a clear-cut winner if there is a duel, official or otherwise (Musk hinted at one next week).
