In case you have lost it, Cybertruck is a more popular meme than as a truck, so it seems that Tesla will return to the drawing board to try to build a truck that attracts its broader fans base.
A report from Electra He says that Musk originally anticipated that the cybertruck increased to sell 500,000 per year, but so far, it is barely sold at a rate of 20,000 per year, which makes it a fairly large failure for the car manufacturer. In the United States, Ford sells around 700,000 F-150 trucks per year and even more worldwide.
Lars Moravy, Vice President of Engineering of Vehicles of Tesla, He spoke in a recent event organized by Tesla’s owners and investors. In the event, Moravy said the company has always talked about making a smaller truck, but is thinking more about using it as an autonomous delivery vehicle instead of another mass market attempt.
“We always talk about making a smaller truck,” Moravy said. “I think in the future, as more and more of the robotaxi they reach the world, we observe those options and think, ok, that kind of service is useful not only for people, but also for goods.”
The only thing that is not yet clear is whether the company is looking to make a smaller truck, or simply a smaller cybertruck that maintains the same angular design.
The disappointing thing is that Tesla seems totally committed to the Robotaxi Plan and is thinking of designing more autonomous cars instead of typical cars for drivers such as the model and, the company’s last success.
In particular, the comment occurs when smaller and more affordable trucks are ready to take care of the car market. First, there is the Slate truckA small EV truck that exchanges bells and whistles for an experience of barebones to help reduce the price. Backed by billionaire Jeff Bezos, Slate has already obtained more than 100,000 reservations. Further, Road and track Reports that compact collections are growing in popularity as people move away from full -size full -size trucks.
All the recent interest in smaller and more cheapest trucks, along with the remarkable splash of the promise of the slate truck, could have Tesla fighting to maintain its control over the North American market.
