Musk after watching science fiction movies such as "Blade Runner" and "Back to the Future" opened his mind and hoped to build a cyberpunk "future chariot", according to Ma Zong's style, this car must be electric, it is best to go to the moon and mars. After 7 years of Musk's planning, on November 22, 2019, Cybertruck was officially unveiled at the Tesla conference, and its tough appearance and "rollover accident" gained it enough heat.
The difference between cybercards
At the beginning of Cybertruck's design, it was because Musk was fed up with the existing pickup industrial design, he felt that it was ugly and unchanged, which was the combination of electric vehicles and cyberpunk, the whole car was basically composed of straight lines and a large number of triangles, the front face arrangement of the through-LED headlights group looked very intimidating, and the four wide multi-terrain tires were even more domineering. This also causes polarization and judgment, the loved one immediately pays for the reservation, and the nasty person does not want to look at the second glance after reading it, thinking that it is like a car.
In terms of power, Musk exploded the ordinary pickup truck, Musk made a video display at the press conference, and the Cyber truck's 100-kilometer acceleration time was 2.9 seconds, even exceeding the latest Porsche 911 at that time. Its top model may be equipped with a three-motor power system, which can complete 0-96km/h acceleration in 3 seconds, and the maximum range is more than 1000 km when fully charged.
Musk's positioning of cybertruck is the best escape vehicle in the "zombie apocalypse", and its safety should also be second to none, the body uses stainless steel bulletproof material, which can block the 9mm caliber bullet shooting. The only failure was Musk's rollover at the press conference, when he smashed cyberruck glass with a steel ball, and the glass directly cracked.
Changes in the Cyber pickup
After the launch, tesla pickups appeared a handful of times, during which time the number of bookings for Cybertruck has exceeded one million, and consumers are full of expectations for this big guy with strange shape. Until recently, it was rediscovered, a drone peeked into the new appearance of Tesla pickup, after the video exposure, its change became a hot topic of discussion among netizens, it seems to be different from before.
The footage taken by the drone provides enough information. Compared with the version of the press conference, it can be clearly seen that the proportions of the body have become smaller, the front body and rear lathe have been shortened; the iconic headlights have also become split "small eyes"; the legendary laser wiper has not appeared, replaced by a huge physical wiper, and the light bar on the glass roof has disappeared; the side mirrors have been added on both sides of the car, and the windshield has also changed from flat to curved; the door handles similar to the Model S have also become touch buttons; and the cool multi-terrain tires have been replaced by off-road tires The rear lathe was replaced with a black liner and a large number of plastic strips were added, which was less technical than the previous all-metal style, but became more practical; the storage space on the prismatic column of the design was eliminated, and the charging port on the rear side of the car was adjusted to the black bevel of the rear wheel arch.
Musk also said not long ago that the first batch of Cyber pickups will all be four-motor versions, which means that the Cyber pickup can independently control the steering system of four wheels and move like a crab, a technology that can be seen in General Motors' electric version of the Hummer, Ford's F-150 Lightning and Rivian's R1T.
Overall, a series of changes in Tesla pickups are more in line with the tastes of earthlings, and they pull the tone back from the future back to modern times. Although more grounded, its own characteristics have also been smoothed out a lot. Tesla initially, is not rushing to make an ordinary pickup truck, Musk has said that this car may become the official Mars rover of the United States, and even become a lunar rover, there have been netizens exposed the Tesla pickup truck version of the lunar rover, falcon heavy rocket once sent a Tesla Roadster into interstellar orbit, then Musk sent Cyberruck to the moon is not excessive.
Maybe Tesla will build separate versions of the moon and Mars in the future, but now it seems that the difference between Cybertruck and ordinary pickup trucks is getting smaller and smaller, and consumers who pay for reservations may feel deceived. Tesla and SpaceX created by Musk lead the trend in their respective fields, and how to get to the pickup truck here will be unknown to everyone. The rebellious leader took the lead in compromising with reality, something Musk fans could not accept.
Musk seems to prefer the latter between realizing his dreams and making money, with Tesla confirming that the official mass production of cybertruck electric pickups will be delayed until 2022, a year behind its earliest promises. Is Musk busy building cars? He is busy selling peripherals, on November 30, Tesla released a limited edition whistle, the price of 318 yuan, after the shelves sold out in seconds;
On December 2, Tesla launched a "Cyberquad For Kids" in its online store, which costs $1,900 or about 12,000 yuan. Although the money for cutting leeks in this way is fast, if the main product of the business is not hard enough, consumers and fans may not pay the bill.
