Tesla’s futuristic Cybertruck is one of the world’s most anticipated vehicles. However, many would-be buyers panicked after hearing that the electric pickup truck had been canceled.
Earlier this year, it was reported that the production of the Tesla Cybertruck would not begin until the first quarter of 2023. However, this does not imply that the vehicle has been discarded.
Is Cypertruck Officially Canceled?
No, Tesla’s Cybertruck has not been canceled. It is undeniably one of the most elaborate April Fools’ Day pranks pulled by CarBuzz.
The publication issued a report titled “CANCELED! Tesla Cybertruck Is Dead.” According to the article, Elon himself announced the cancellation of the Cybertruck, saying, “Very sad to say we’ve made the difficult decision to cancel our Cybertruck.”
“I know there will be a lot of disappointed customers, and all pre-orders will be refunded as soon as possible.” “The decision was made in the best interests of Tesla and its future,” the statement continues.
Tesla Yet has Not addressed the Joke
Tesla has yet to make an official announcement. Tesla’s Cybertruck is one of its most significant initiatives. Naturally, any news about its production or cancellation would be made public.
The manufacturer has not responded to Car Buzz’s joke that the Cybertruck’s production plans are “dead.” Furthermore, sources close to the company told Reuters that the production delay is due to “changing features and functions of the electric pickup to make a compelling product” rather than “far exceeding” development costs.
