World's Most Anticipated Truck

Tesla's Cybertruck has been the world's most anticipated truck since it was first announced in 2019.  Now with the launch targeted for 2022, the latest, initial production version of the Cybertruck seems more awesome than ever.  CEO Elon Musk has decided to launch it as a 4-motor electric pickup truck version, not the one, two or three motor versions previously announced.  According to Musk, that will enable the 4-motor EV to drive "diagonally like a crab".  

A Pickup That Turns Like a Tank

The four motors will provide fast response torque, independently controlling each wheel.  The purpose is to better control the EV's four wheels' ability to traverse uneven and slippery terrain by sending power to each corner of the vehicle. Musk says the Cybertruck turns like a tank. Also, the new pickup won't have any door handles.  There are also no rearview mirrors.  Cameras provide views instead.  

What About Pricing?

What hasn't been disclosed yet is the price of the four motor Cybertruck.  The one motor is priced at $39,900; two motor is $49,900; and the three motor at $69,900.  There are also some reports that Tesla won't offer the one-motor version because it won't deliver enough range and possibly won't offer Tesla enough profitability.  That remains to be seen.  But one thing is for sure.  The Cybertruck is a uniquely innovative automotive design and a powerful piece of automotive engineering.  To take a look at many more vehicle innovations, go to https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asin=B09J1N32PB&preview=newtab&linkCode=kpe&ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_M0ETZAKWP3WMNHF44ENX
