The original Cybertruck concept surprised the automotive world with its dramatic angular lines and features such as bulletproof glass, while it had a claimed maximum towing capacity of more than six tonnes.

It also comes with a lockable, 2,832-litre load bed which can carry items up to 1,981mm long.

The EV truck has surprisingly decent aerodynamics, despite its bluff styling, while its continuous sloping rear line means that the Cybertruck produces less turbulence than a conventional pick-up truck.

The production Cybertruck will use a cast aluminium section at the rear, produced using an 8,000-ton Giga Press machine at the Texas factory. 

Elon Musk has stated that he wants production to eventually ramp up to 250,000 Cybertrucks annually, and that first customer deliveries should be scheduled for later in 2023.

It was announced on Twitter that more than 250,000 customers had placed orders for the new model – but they are yet to see any form of production model.
