HE BROKE INTO A CYBERTRUCK: TRENDING IN TESLA, EPISODE 4

EV Channels Review

This episode of Trending in Tesla dives deep into recent Cybertruck leaks and sightings, including a controversial incident where someone gained access to an unlocked truck. While the leaks offer tantalizing glimpses of the UI and potential features like bidirectional charging, the hosts, particularly Ryan McCaffrey, urge caution against unverified information, emphasizing the need for official confirmation. The discussion also touches on a Model Y partial refresh seen in China with ambient lighting and new trim, contrasting it with the more significant 'Juniper' refresh expected later. The introduction of a rear-wheel-drive Model Y in the US at a competitive price point is highlighted as a potential 'nail in the coffin' for other EVs due to its affordability and eligibility for incentives. The episode concludes with a look at the Tesla Semi's capabilities and charging, alongside broader industry trends like NACS adoption and the challenges faced by traditional automakers.
