Just Around the corner

I live in a town that has a facility that makes weather stripping and interior parts for nearly all cars in US.

they are CURRENTLY mass producing weather stripping for the Cyber truck. Tesla is obviously done with at least some of the changes and have advanced to some component production.

Very exciting. If you know anyone who is doing it I'd love to know if they plan to have a fold down rear door connecting the cab to the vault. I am sure it would require weather stripping to keep the weather out of the cab

Austin is coming together.... MY pilot build happening per rumors. Still lots to do, but CT should be next.

Source?

No sources, except there was a story about the Roadster being delayed until 2023........ which is using the same batteries as the Tri -motor if I am not mistaken. I am going to say 2nd quarter of 2023

I think all the Cybertruck models will be using the new battery. I've got a dual on order, so from your mouth to God's ears, but you're just making a misinformed guess here.

I doubt it's misinformed. 2022 will be a short run of CT. Full Production will be in 2023.

I believe all the Cybertrucks are using the same battery. That is what informed his guess.

Thanks for the info. it's good to hear they are moving forward.

Here's hoping by the time they are coming off the assembly line that we can come to Austin and enjoy a delivery event.

This article makes no mention of the battery.

Nope no mention at all.

Theres a difference between battery and motor. The tri-motor uses the same triple motor set-up as the plaid Model S and Roadster. As far as the battery, that's unknown. there have been rumors floating that the cybertruck would use a larger battery pack (over 100kW), but that's unconfirmed.

 

[israndy]

Yeah, not just rumors, but how ELSE would they get 500 miles in a bigger, heavier vehicle with just 100 kWh pack?
