The Tesla Cybertruck is the most interesting new product to come out of Tesla in a long time. There’s going to be a lot of new features and surprises when we see the truck in two weeks, so to tide us over until then, let’s go over what we know:
Tesla will unveil its “Cybertruck” electric pickup on November 21. Elon Musk has called the supposedly Blade Runner design “heart-stopping”, with better utility than a Ford F-150 and superior performance to a basic Porsche 911.

Okay, so far so good. I’m ready for my heart to be stopped. Tell me more.
He’s said the truck will seat six, start at around $50,000, and offer 400 to 500 miles of range in the highest price variant. Musk has also suggested the top-end version will be powered by a dual-motor setup, with a ludicrous towing capacity of 300,000 pounds.

I’ve been waiting for this for ages. More importantly *many* of my friends have been interested in going electric, but have been waiting for Tesla to offer a truck. This is truly a game-changer.
It’s going to be biblical!
I am soo excited for this! For sure the coolest Tesla product yet! I will most likely be getting this in the next 5 years if it is actually this amazing!
