Tesla Delivers First Cybertrucks... and a Host of Details
The moment was long-awaited and yesterday, it happened: Tesla delivered the first Cybertrucks to customers. The event took place at the automaker's Texas plant and was broadcast live on Elon Musk’s X, formerly Twitter.
Musk was full of praise for his product, describing it as a truck that's better than a truck, and a sports car that's better than a sports car.
As expected, the presentation had its share of memorable moments. There was another demonstration of the strength of the model's windows, only this time the shatterproof glass didn't shatter, as it did when the vehicle was unveiled in 2019. This go-round, Cybertruck designer Franz von Holzhausen threw a baseball at the window and it bounced back. Tesla says you could whip a 120 km/h fastball at it and the result would be the same.
Not enough to convince you? Tesla also showed a video in which the Cybertruck withstands a barrage of bullets from a machine-gun.
Point being, you'll be able to drive this EV in a war zone.
