"Snygg" är kanske inte det första ordet man tänker på...

It looks like Tesla is preparing to sell the Cybertruck in China. Although, we don’t have a date yet for production or any information about this other than the fact that Tesla started accepting reservations last year for the Cybertruck in China, and now this new bit of information as well: Tesla China filed a trademark application in China for the Cybertruck. (Update: an earlier version of this article focused on potential production of a Made-in-China Cybertruck, but it has been revised to recognize that the news may just be about selling the US-built Cybertruck there.

Smaken är ju lite olika men bägge funkar. Hittade två bilder med bilen i samma vinkel.

Skulle inte "final" Cybertruck visas i juni?

Handtag, Laddhastighet, batteristorlek, hur man löst vindrutetorkare, effekt på eluttag, backspeglar mm?

Earlier today, the Korea Economic Daily reported the deal:

“Samsung Electro-Mechanics was known to have won a $435.7 million deal to supply camera modules to the largest US EV maker. The company plans to launch a new EV, which gives drivers a rear view through a camera equipped on the car, as the model does not have side mirrors. The EV has more than eight cameras for self-driving purposes.”

It even has cameras instead of side mirrors, which is still not allowed in the US, but there have been efforts to change that, and Tesla is hoping to make it happen before the Cybertruck makes it to market.

The electric pickup truck has cameras in the fenders that stream into the cabin instead of the side mirrors:

Det verkar bli kameror istället för backspeglar.

Haha, jag vill se Cybertruck efter tre kilometer på en vanlig, regnblöt, grusväg. Då har du förlorat all bakåtsikt. För ingen tror väl att Tesla skulle ens fundera på rengöring för kameror och lyktor?

E-tron har ju redan kamera istället för spegel. Hur fungerade det i vintras?
Man lyckas ju hålla backspeglar rena genom att anpassa luftströmmarna runt speglarna. En kamera är ju mycket mindre och minst lika lätt att hålla ren.

Elon Musk explains how Tesla Cybertruck’s lack of door handles will work.

Verkligen! Har aliens skapat bilen! Riktigt cool! Men så mycket frågor:

”That’s the same system that Tesla first introduced in the original Model X years ago.

The car detects your key fob or phone (if it was set up as a key in the Tesla app) and an actuator opens the door as you approach.”

Men om den inte har dörrhandtag: passagerare då? De har ju ingen key fob. Är väl ofta när man packar bilen som alla i familjen springer in och ut ur huset till bilen och öppnar och stänger dörrar utan att föraren är vid bilen just då… Snacka om att göra saker överkomplicerade - få ut bilen på marknaden istället så vi kan uppleva den!

Rumor: Tesla Plans to Start Production at Giga Texas with Cybertruck Using Structural Battery Pack & 4680 Cells.

Tesla to Move into Beta Phases of Cybertruck Production Later this Year.

Tesla is committed to starting production of Cybertruck as quickly as possible, but not before Model Y at Giga Texas. Production of the electric pickup truck is expected in late 2021 and is already moving into the beta phases.

Cybertruck will be a great product and Tesla CEO Elon Musk believes it can be the company's "best product ever." Nevertheless, Cybertruck has a lot of fundamentally new design ideas and its production is associated with some difficulties, which the Tesla team talked about during the Q2 2021 Earnings Call. No one has ever made such a car, so the company expects challenges to arise.

Vice President of Vehicle Engineering at Tesla Lars Moravy said the Cybertruck is currently in alpha stages. The company has completed the basic design of the vehicle architecture. Since the pickup truck carries much of the structural pack and large casting designs of the Model Y being built in Berlin and Austin, its production will only be launched after Model Y. In terms of production ramp, the compact SUV obviously has a big advantage over the all-new Cybertruck, but Tesla is already moving to beta phases for the pickup truck later this year. The company is looking to increase production after Model Y is launched at Giga Texas. "We are moving into the beta phases of Cybertruck later this year, and we will be looking to ramp that in production and take it to Texas after Model Y is up and going," said Moravy.

Musk added that it is extremely difficult to scale up production, especially large manufactured items. However, once this is done, the size of the item will no longer matter, since all production processes and supply chains will already be established. Musk stressed that in order for Cybertruck, as well as for Semi, to scale to volumes that are significant for customer delivery, Tesla must solve for the chip shortage problem that hit the entire automotive industry, establish a supply chain, and secure sufficient production of battery cells. He explained that the company could manufacture a small number of vehicles but would not get the desired effect, as the costs would be very high compared to the costs with large-scale production.
