Tesla Cybertruck Launch Event Leaves Some Reservation Holders Disappointed
Some Tesla Cybertruck reservation holders who attended the launch party event felt disappointed, as the event only lasted around 30 minutes and did not provide all the details they expected. When the specs were later revealed on Tesla's website, prices were higher than the initial $40,000 promised, and the top range was 340 miles instead of the originally touted 500 miles. While some reservation holders said the event may make them reconsider their order, others indicated they would still likely purchase the Cybertruck once their model is available. Automotive analysts feel Tesla will still likely be able to convert a significant portion of the 2 million existing reservations into real orders.
