Tesla again postpones the release of Cybertruck for a year

If we refer to the data published by the authoritative publication represented by Reuters, then such a large automaker as Tesla has once again quietly postponed the release of its extremely unusual and expected by many electric pickup truck – Cybertruck. This time the company is delaying its release by a whole year. And as reported, this automaker will start production of this electric truck not soon, namely only by the end of the first quarter of 2023.

And despite the fact that Tesla itself has not yet made any official statements regarding this delay, it is still important to note that the previous entry on the Cybertruck order page has been removed, referring us to the fact that the electric car will begin to be produced as early as 2022, that is, the current year. It’s also worth noting that the design section of the Cybertruck page previously said, “You’ll be able to finalize your configuration as production approaches in 2022.” By the way, back in November, one of the Twitter users asked the current head of the company, Elon Musk, to provide updated, more recent and relevant information regarding the current state of Cybertruck and the company’s plans for him.

As a result, Elon Musk responded that Tesla is actively fighting the “supply chain nightmare” and that he will provide more updated, detailed and really interesting information during the company’s next earnings report, scheduled for January 26th. Be that as it may, according to a Reuters source, Tesla will first release the Cybertruck in limited quantities before it can increase its output. And in case you didn’t know, the company originally unveiled the Cybertruck in 2019 as part of a major event where Elon Musk said production should begin “at the end of 2021.”

However, after some time, this date was shifted to a certain period of 2022. And in general, delays in Tesla releases have long been no big surprise, since Elon Musk is known for often announcing overly optimistic schedules and news. Problems in supply chains and shortages in some key components that were caused by the global pandemic could also have contributed significantly to the delay, if, as there is little doubt today.
