When Tesla first showed the electric pickup to the world in November 2019, it announced plans to start building it two years later. Now Tesla says the first customer trucks will be delivered later this year.
Tesla said on Wednesday that Cybertruck production was in the "tooling" phase, meaning the company is still outfitting the production line with manufacturing equipment. Tesla also noted it's testing the truck for "final certification and validation."
During Tesla's earnings call, Musk said the Cybertruck will be the only truck with four doors, a six-foot bed, and a small enough footprint to fit in a 20-foot garage.
