We are getting our first new sighting of a Tesla Cybertruck prototype in a long time
as the electric pickup has just been spotted In New York, Manhattan, Where Elon musk will
host SNL. Also Elon musk was spotted driving the soon-to-come cybertruck in the famous
streets of new york, which we will talk about later in the video. Tesla unveiled the Cybertruck
back in 2019 and only had one known prototype of the electric pickup. Over the few months
following the unveiling, the prototype was spotted only on a rare few occasions. CEO
Elon Musk was seen driving it to a restaurant in Los Angeles. He also showed the prototype
to Jay Leno in early 2020. It was displayed at the Petersen Museum in June 2020 and at
Tesla’s Battery Day in September, but that’s about it. We haven’t seen a Cybertruck prototype
for over 6 months and during that time, we presumed Tesla supposedly had refined the
design before bringing the vehicle to production. Then a few weeks ago Tesla Cybertruck prototype
was showcased at Gigafactory Texas in Austin. And now it seems from the new york sighting
that there haven’t been any major changes on the structure of the Tesla cybertruck.
Only small minor tweaks which we discuss later on. First, Welcome to Tesla Future. Where
we talk about the future of Tesla, tesla stock, and Elon musk’s projects. If you’re new

in a rare outing to New York City. It showed up in New York at the same time as the company’s
CEO, Elon Musk, who is in town to host Saturday Night Live tomorrow. Again, it appears to
be the same prototype as the one originally unveiled and not an updated version, which
Musk has been talking about for a while now. He mentioned the automaker updating the Cybertruck’s
adaptive air suspension. They also talked about making the truck smaller, but Musk scrapped
that plan after a design review in May 2020. The Cybertruck’s New York visit was confirmed
by Elon Musk, who tweeted. Cybertruck prototype in New York this weekend. Initial images of
the Cybertruck’s visit to New York were shared by the electric vehicle community in
the TeslaMotors subreddit and many other New York pedestrians. There will be a link in
the description if you’re interested in joining the tesla Reddit community. As seen
in the pictures, the all-electric pickup attracted a lot of attention from New York citizens.
Although there was previous criticism of the Tesla cybertruck being too outlandish, The
vehicle looked at home in the famous streets of New York. As for Elon Musk, he actually
drove around the streets of New York behind the wheel of the Tesla Cybertruck. Other photos
of the visit also showed the cybertruck showcased in the Meatpacking district, Showing many
visitors who seemed to be drawn to the massive all-electric pickup truck. This was true not
only for the Cybertruck’s exterior but also its interior, which features a yoke for its
steering systems and a 17″ display, like the Model S and Model X refresh. Interestingly
enough, the Tesla Cybertruck that Elon Musk drove around New York seems to be the same
prototype that the company unveiled back in 2019. This was partly due to the presence
of door handles, a part that would not be present on the production vehicle, as per
Musk’s previous “tease” on Twitter. The Tesla Cybertruck is arguably one of the
most highly-anticipated vehicles in Tesla’s history, with Elon Musk noting that the unusually-shaped
pickup truck has seen demand that’s far above the company’s expectations. The vehicle
is expected to start pilot production sometime this year, though Musk, for his part, has
proven to be quite conservative about the Cybertruck’s initial manufacturing timeframe.
Cybertruck leaks. Tesla’s longtime head of user interface design has left the company,
and he has published some images of previously unreleased UI design for the Cybertruck and
Full Self-Driving software in the process. Pawel Pietryka was an art director at Apple
before joining Tesla back in 2016. He quickly became Tesla’s head of user interface design,
a very important role at Tesla since the in-car experience revolves around large touchscreen
with user interfaces. According to his Linkedin profile, Pietryka left Tesla last month to
create his own design firm called Moderne Grafik.
Pietryka has been replaced as head of UI design at Tesla by Ben Cunningham, who came to Tesla
last year from Facebook. As part of Pietryka’s portfolio on his new firm’s website, the
designer shared some images of his designs at Tesla. Most of the images were of already
released designs in Tesla vehicles and other products, like its mobile app, but there were
also some new images of UI designs we haven’t seen before, at least not this clearly. For
example, the user interface of the Tesla Cybertruck was shown in a quick video. The prototype
of the electric pickup truck unveiled in 2019 did feature a basic user interface, but we
didn’t get a good look at it like in this new video. It doesn’t mean that it will
be the final UI in the production version of the Cybertruck, but it’s still a closer
look than we’ve got so far. On the website, there was also a quick video showing the driving
visualization of a Tesla using Full Self-Driving. In the Full Self-Driving Beta program, Tesla
has updated the driving visualization that renders the vehicle’s surroundings, but
it includes a lot more information in an unrefined design than what is expected in the wider
release version.
Tesla is expected to release a new version of its Full Self-Driving Beta software to
its wider fleet later this quarter, and it should have new driving visualization that
should look more like the images released by Pietryka than what is seen in the current
beta as shown above. Cybertruck deliveries by the end of the year. The enormous, pyramid-Esque
electric pickup truck could see its first deliveries by the end of the year, according
to Tesla CEO Elon Musk. "I think it's going to be an incredible vehicle," Musk said of
the Tesla Cybertruck, during a call with investors to discuss 2020 earnings. "If we get lucky,
we will be able to do a few deliveries by the end of this year. But I expect volume
production to be in 2022." Yes, he said "lucky" and Musk is also known for touting production
and release dates that Tesla ultimately does not meet. But as we can see it appears real
progress is being made. Why you should buy the cybertruck? The Cybertruck is a bold and
brave design that none of Detroit's big-three would have chanced. We applaud not defaulting
to the designs Detroit would let dictate our future. It does not matter whether we personally
like the angular, bare-metal, futuristic design of Elon Musk’s “street legal tank from
the future.” We want to see it exist and we invite more vehicles this unique. We dream
of a world in which all cars are inspiring machines that connect us with our passions
and announce our personalities to the world. In this way, the Cybertruck is a step in the
right direction. Such innovation is one of the strengths of a nimble company under the
command of a single automobile auteur. Another strength is shown in Musk's amenability to
innovative suggestions. On Twitter and in interviews, Tesla fans have suggested an "inner-tailgate"
between the bed and passenger space, solar panels on the truck's tonneau cover (adding
15 miles range per sunny day), and even an HVAC system continuing into the bed for camper
hookups. And Musk has expressed support for all these ideas. We may see one or all of
them integrated into future generations of the Cybertruck. But an entire auto company
working at the whim of a single engineer has weaknesses as well. Elon Musk has structured
Tesla with no checks or balances on his wildest design ideas. This leaves his prototype designs
ill-prepared to face real-world checks and balances, such as manufacturing limitations
and legal requirements. This chasm between prototype and reality increases the time between
an announcement and production and leads to unnecessary differences between prototype
and production vehicle. In the past, it has placed motorists and pedestrians in unnecessary
danger. We hope Elon Musk streamlines Tesla’s ability to work with the regulators of the
auto industry and Tesla continues to offer groundbreaking vehicles for generations to
come. Would you take the cybertruck over a supercar? Let’s talk about it down below.
