Description[]
The Tesla Cybertruck is an all-electric light-duty truck designed by Franz von Holzhausen, Sahm Jafari, Ian Kettle, Woo-Tak Kim and Julien Bilodeau for Tesla, Inc. intended for production in 2021. The car's design was based on vehicles from movies such as Blade Runner. The trucks will be manufactured at Tesla's Gigafactory Texas, near Austin, Texas. It will reportedly be open to the public. An ATV using the same design language known as the Cyberquad was unveiled alongside it.
This casting was originally intended to be released in 2020 along with the rest of Hot Wheels id's Series 2 lineup, having originally been announced as such, but numerous production delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic and poor sales led to a bulk of the original series 2 cars not being released on schedule. What was intended to be the initial release of the Cybertruck featured a different tool with an open truck bed with a Cyberquad inside. The casting thus debuted in the 2021 mainline without being labeled a New Model and with a modified tool featuring a closed tonneau cover and no Cyberquad. Both the id and mainline-modified castings are largely identical apart from the removal of the Cyberquad, a different base and the mainline casting riding much higher than the id casting; the id casting is notably extremely heavy for an id casting and features an even weight distribution, with a notable portion of the weight coming from the Cyberquad in the rear, which is made of metal. A large part of the truck bed is also made of metal.
