Tesla intends to use the Cybertruck to help accelerate the pace of electric vehicle sales in the United States by electrifying pickup trucks, the largest segment of the country's auto market.
Pickup trucks are very popular in the United States, but other countries also seem to be showing decent interest in Tesla's new electric pickup truck.
After the announcement of the Cybertruck, Tesla began accepting pre-orders for it with a $100 deposit for the reservation. According to the head of the company, Elon Musk, in just a couple of days about 150 thousand pre-orders were received for the electric pickup truck, and a week later their number exceeded 250 thousand. After that, the company stopped updating order statistics, but according to calculations by the community of users of the website Cybertruckownersclub.com, after 89 days their number exceeded the 500 thousand mark.
Based on data collected from over 1800 members of the Tesla enthusiast community and provided by CybertruckTalk.com, the top 10 countries with the most Tesla Cybertruck reservations are as follows:
- USA (76,25%).
- Canada (10,43%).
- Australia (3,16%).
- UK (1,39%).
- Norway (1,11%).
- Germany (1,05%).
- Sweden (0,83%).
- Netherlands (0,67%).
- France (0,44%).
- Iceland (0,44%).
According to calculations from the CybertruckTalk.com forum, about 17% of users ordered the single-motor model, which starts at $40. Much more users preferred the Tesla Cybertruck versions with two and three motors, and slightly more dual-motor models with a price of $000 were ordered.
