Tesla just lopped 80% off the capital requirements for building a battery factory.I have my doubts the CT will ever be produced at rate in anything like it promised configuration or pricing.
I think they can figure out bending metal.

The two have nothing to do with each other. Forming 300 series CRES is..."Hard"Tesla just lopped 80% off the capital requirements for building a battery factory.

I know a thing or two about advanced material, 40 years in design/mfg of same.
Musk designed the truck around manufacturability. Manufacturing it at scale and for a low cost was the brief.The two have nothing to do with each other. Forming 300 series CRES is..."Hard"
They could have demonstrated the bulletproof windows at the Giga event, but did not. Greater than zero chance that is not ready either.
Does not pair well with production in 2023.

The products they said they would deliver in large volumes, they have. They are batting 100% in terms of hitting scaling targets.Spot on at delivering which products at scale? I count two that have been sorta-close to spot-on and they're the same product with a different wrapper
I pre-ordered a dual motor version a day or two after it was announced.
I believe the price was at just shy of $50,000.
Does anyone know if the price is locked and that's what would be asked when it is time for delivery?
@Dennisbroker Since you did yours early were you able to actually place a build or just a reservation? Just wondering if you got to lock in a priceI ordered the truck on the 2nd day. I think my number is around 91,000.
I wonder what the difference in the price will be since I read that they will have 4 motors vs 3 now and if the dual motor will still be @ 50KHistorically Tesla has tried to honer reservation prices, but the world has changed in unexpected and significant ways since 2019.
Payment is expected at delivery (or possibly before?), your $100 holds your place in line.
If you didn't order in the first 5 minutes, then you'll have several months to figure all this out once they start shipping, lol
With component scaricity/pricing as it is, they will likely delay selling any basic trims for a while — I don’t think we see the prices they announced due to inflation etc.I wonder what the difference in the price will be since I read that they will have 4 motors vs 3 now and if the dual motor will still be @ 50K
Thats what I am afraid of the 80K price - I dont need the best of the best Dual motor will work so I hope that is going to be in the 50-60K rangeI wouldn't be surprised if prices are $20k higher. The 300ish miles Lightning and Rivian are around $80k. Quad motor 500 miles CT has to be at least $90k and could be over $100k
I wouldn’t get your hopes up.. I’d be very surprised to see anyone get in any version of the cybertruck for under 75kThats what I am afraid of the 80K price - I dont need the best of the best Dual motor will work so I hope that is going to be in the 50-60K range
After buying the Model 3 and the 9 month wait on the MY I never get my hopes up for Tesla. I get my hopes up once it is in the drivewayI wouldn’t get your hopes up.. I’d be very surprised to see anyone get in any version of the cybertruck for under 75k
I ordered about #95,000 IIRC. Ordered a 3 Motor/500 miles with a specific price (without FSD). The 3M will not be built, to be replaced with a 4 Motor/miles? No data on the new price, but I am sure will be higher.@Dennisbroker Since you did yours early were you able to actually place a build or just a reservation?

No prices are locked in.. they will all be much higher than when we initially reservedI ordered about #95,000 IIRC. Ordered a 3 Motor/500 miles with a specific price (without FSD). The 3M will not be built, to be replaced with a 4 Motor/miles? No data on the new price, but I am sure will be higher.
