On the evening of Thursday, November 21, 2019, Tesla Motors announced a pickup truck model-Cybertruck Cybertruck in Washington, USA. On Saturday that week, Tesla President Musk revealed on Weibo that the total order volume of Cybertruck pickups has now reached 146,000, and 41% of them choose three-motor models, and 42% choose dual-motor models. , single-motor models account for 17%.
The starting price of the Cybertruck is US$39,900, equivalent to more than RMB 280,900, and it is expected to start production at the end of 2021. General Motors CEO Marile Mahara said that General Motors' first pure electric pickup truck will also be released in 2021, and it is likely to appear at the same time as the Cybertruck.

According to relevant information, the Cybertruck was inspired by the pickup truck in Musk's favorite film "Blade Runner", so the name Cybertruck can be explained. The anchors at Station B claim that the Cybertruck is actually the invention of a well-known Internet celebrity called "Handscar Geng". Handsman Geng himself also said: If the vehicle's exterior design can be like that, I think it's because I can do it.
Obviously, the Cybertruck launched by Tesla is currently a concept sports car, and it does not have essential functions such as rearview mirrors and wipers. Even at the meeting, Musk tried to prove that the explosion-proof glass of the Cybertruck was very strong, so he threw a bearing steel ball at the glass, and the glass eventually broke
