NEW CYBERTRUCK DETAILS, CHINA EXPANSION REPORT, UNION PRESSURE

EV Channels Review

This episode of Tesla Daily provides a comprehensive update on the Cybertruck, focusing on the invitation of reservation holders to place orders and the details of the "Foundation Series." The reviewer highlights that this initial series is fully optioned, including FSD and other premium features, with pricing reaching up to $122,000 for the "Cyberbeast" tri-motor AWD version and just under $100,000 for the dual-motor AWD. Estimated delivery windows are provided, with AWD versions expected between December and March, and the Cyberbeast in early 2024. The discussion also touches on tire options affecting range, the confirmed $16,000 range extender (production late 2024), and advanced features like independent wheel suspension and a "Wade Mode." Beyond the Cybertruck, the report covers potential expansion plans for Gigafactory Shanghai, union pressure escalating in Norway and Denmark due to the Sweden dispute, and the rollout of Tesla's holiday software update. Ford's expectation of losing the Mach-E tax credit and Stellantis's claims of EV profitability are also noted.
