Well, if Tesla announces it for mid-2025, they may start producing it in real numbers by 2030, but most probably never. At this point, their timelines and announcements are a complete joke. And I'm not even talking about the faked FSD video from 2016 - for which Dan O'Dowd posted here a quite ironic comment: https://twitter.com/RealDanODowd/status/1749933238985110000#m https://twitter.com/RealDanODowd/status/1749933238985110000#... How is the Tesla Semi ramp going (released >1 ago, still absolutely no leaks about it specs) ? Cybertruck (released ~2 months ago, with a supposedly 2 million reservations, but people that were estimated 100k in the queue already got some) ? Tesla Dojo Cluster (which was supposed to be top 5 'in the entire World') by now ? I hate to be the pessimist, but at this point, it's very clear that they are intentionally lying.

people that were estimated 100k in the queue already got some This is a big one. I know a lot of people that cancelled their CT reservations. I see more Rivians in SoCal than CyberTrucks...and I drive past SpaceX on my way to work.

  Rivians have been out for far longer. Of course there are more. People underestimate how hard it is to scale a new platform. Look at GMs Ultium for example. Cybertruck is a new ground up platform. Their own engines and battery cells.

  SHOCKING that you would be seeing more Rivians which they’ve been making 17k a quarter of, than CT with its current what 50 trucks a week haha They’re only delivering CA and TX it seems so they’re skipping numbers obviously

    It's pretty shocking that I would see more SpaceX and Tesla employees driving Rivians than CTs, given that you would expect people who work for Musk to be at the top of the list for new cars. It says a lot that people with the most up-close experience to the CT have voted with their wallets and gone with Rivian instead.

      It seems you’re struggling to comprehend the raw availability difference. Also kinda funny how you decidedly say they “have voted” because of an image you made up in hour head. Do you ever reach for data before making up your mind?

  Rivian has produced, in total, ~82,500 electric vehicles and delivered ~71,300 as of this month. Tesla produces and delivers almost 1.8M/year. As long as there are people in the US who want to play cowboy, there will be a market for the CT.

No announcement was made. This is based on an order to manufacturers.Damn you could have read like the first two sentences before seething. Jumping of queue numbers based on delivery location is expected. They’re mostly delivering TX and CA.
