Tesla’s Cybertruck is one of the most highly anticipated electric vehicles of 2021, and the production program is being closely monitored by the industry. Recently, Tesla released a video on LinkedIn that appears to show a Cybertruck frame being lifted by one of its robots. This could indicate that the production line is fairly advanced and that Tesla is on track to bring the Cybertruck to production this summer.
The video, which was a spoof of a dating video featuring its robots, showed a large vehicle frame that doesn’t match any Tesla vehicle currently in production. The size and configuration could be a match for the electric pickup truck, and the background appears to be Gigafactory Texas in Austin. It looks like Tesla could drop the previously leaked body onto that frame.
Tesla has said that it aims to bring the Cybertruck to production this summer, but it’s unlikely that significant deliveries will happen until 2024 when the automaker ramps up to volume production. While these glimpses at the production are encouraging, there’s no real evidence that it will happen any faster than what Tesla has already announced.
The Cybertruck is expected to be a game changer in the young but important electric pickup truck market, with over 1.5 million reservations already made. With Tesla’s incredible track record in building electric vehicles in high volume, it’s no wonder that the industry is eagerly awaiting its arrival.
