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.

Tesla delays Semi electric truck to 2021
[ad_1] Whatever the causes, the Semi delay was a setback in a first quarter that was otherwise upbeat for Tesla.

If the company is […]
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.
