    Autonomous Electric Trucks Could Disrupt Rail and Transform Logistics

    I come to this forum to discuss subjects related to the Cybertruck but from time to time I see discussions started on political and economic systems. I made a mistake today to engage in such a discussion. In order to keep this forum cleaner, I will remove my such commentary. I am not expecting...

    Cybertruck-Making it uniquely yours.

    I am thinking about laser etching something on my Cybertruck, and a duplicate tattoo on my body. Good enough for a Memento sequel?

    Tesla Terafactory Austin will be bigger than this, kinda hard to imagine, and spitting out Cybertrucks and Semi's, oh yeah!

    Austin Terafactory complex will need it's own police and telegraph stations

    What am I missing?

    lower payload for the tri-motor version wouldn't pass marketing department's approval ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Will the Cybertruck use Tesla's newly granted Electromagnetic Windshield Wiper patent?

    My understanding is that ALON has a thermo conductivity about x4 higher than regular glass. So I see no problem for that snow to be quickly melted from cabin heat. But I am not a materials engineer so my words don't have much weight...

    Will the Cybertruck use Tesla's newly granted Electromagnetic Windshield Wiper patent?

    Some say that the Cybertruck will not need windshield wipers at all because the windshield glass will be so polished that nothing will stick to it. Although I am still skeptical it will be made of aluminium oxynitride, maybe for tri-motor version only or as an option

    Who's planning on a Cybertruck factory pickup / delivery

    Yes, I would definitely do it but border crossing and insurance would complicate the thing for me. I hope one day Tesla will be able to have the cars delivered by themselves, driving in FSD.

    Why Startups (and Tesla) Will Struggle with Electric Pick Ups

    The author of this article should just imagine that an outsider manufacturer (say VW or Hyundai/Kia) simply announces an ICE pickup truck and in one year it garners 1.5M reservations. Does this look like a struggle now?

    Cybertruck design & engineering complete. First deliveries still this year.

    I just watched a video about BMW i3 production and am wondering what if the rear subframe of the Cybertruck is made of carbon fiber polymer. Guess I'm dreaming but there's a real possibility for the roadster...

    Cybertruck’s Yoke-Style Steering Wheel Revealed by Way of Model S and X Updated Interiors?!

    I am wondering if it would be possible that Tesla will use a variable-ratio steering in conjunction with the Yoke-style steering wheel, so for a full turn you would have to rotate only 90-120° in each direction and it would still be very fine steering in the neutral position. Did anyone see...

    Cybertruck to use 48V instead of 12V?

    Should this thread be resurrected?

    Cybertruck design & engineering complete. First deliveries still this year.

    Cybertruck will have structural battery pack with 4680 cells, just because it will be the cheapest form factor to produce and integrate into a new design, every other advantage will just be a bonus.

    Cybertruck design & engineering complete. First deliveries still this year.

    Same form factor but different chemistries, but I would not call some chemistries crappier than others, like LiFePo batteries have some advantages over NCA.

    Price threat...possibly. Stainless steel price

    That is for the regular hot-rolled steel (98% iron content) that is about 3-5 times cheaper than SS. I don't have the latest data but the price of stainless steel actually decreased since CT reveal through Apr 2020 (due to COVID obviously), I believe it went up again lately. But I am not...

    Price threat...possibly. Stainless steel price

    That doesn't change the fact that Tesla's proprietary stainless steel will have to compete for the supply of same commodities: iron, nickel and chromium
