"Mr. Beast"gathered a bunch of YouTube influencers in his latest video, including MKBHD (one of the top tech reviewers online), with a challenge to make a free throw which would then allow that person to give away a Cybertruck to one of their subscribers who was there with them in person.
In fact, MKBHD asked how they got so many Cybertrucks in one single location. It's a good question because right now, the Cybertruck is being sold as a limited Foundation series only, for about $20,000 over the normal price.
It's likely that "Mr. Beast" pulled some strings here to get these Cybertrucks - or he simply made 10 early reservations when the truck first was taking those reservations.

Tesla is getting free advertising with this video. In fact, after 31 minutes, this video has 2.5 million views. It will likely get over 100 million views in the end. People watching this are going to see the Cybertrucks, and this is going to generate even more interest for the Cybertruck for Tesla.
The Cybertruck is an incredibly unique vehicle with its angular design and its stainless steel exoskeleton. It also drives using steer-by-wire, which detaches the steering wheel from the mechanical steering and uses a 48-volt architecture and wiring to do the steering.
This allows the Cybertruck to turn its wheels using electronics and software instead of the machine parts, allowing the wheels to turn in the most efficient way possible.
Mark Rober, famous for his work in tech with drones, took "Mr. Beast's" challenge in order to shoot a free throw, but missed it, and his subscriber did not get the Cybertruck. Others tried but missed as well. It wasn't until someone who actually played basketball made the shot and won his subscription to a Cybertruck.
It was a good, wholesome moment.

Cybertruck - Best Seller
The Tesla Cybertruck is the best-selling vehicle in the U.S. over $100,000. It's easy to see that there is a lot of demand for the Cybertruck.
Tesla continues to ramp the Cybertruck to volume production, and it could get as high as 500,000 per year in the U.S. When you look at the numbers for that and take $100,000 for each Cybertruck, that is $50,000,000,000 or 50 billion dollars for Tesla as the likely long-term revenue projections.
Of course, the cost will come down, so this number will be more around 30 to 40 billion in the end.

The Cybertruck is also going to improve over time. Like all of Tesla's other vehicles, anytime a flaw is found, it is fixed as soon as possible so that all future vehicles get the improvement.
I would expect Tesla to be at 500,000 Cybertrucks per year by the end of 2025.
Tesla recently released the Model 3 long range RWD with 363 miles of range and that is a massive improvement over the existing Model 3 RWD with 272 miles of range.
