Tesla Cybertruck: Halo Effect
If you've been following the news about the Cybertruck here on TorqueNews, then you've probably heard about how the Cybertruck will produce a halo effect for Tesla. We are seeing this now with show rooms getting packed with curious people wanting to know more.
The Cybertruck is hopefully going to be priced in a way that makes it cheaper than any alternative. In my view, this will make it very difficult for prospective customers wanting to buy a truck EV to buy something other than the Cybertruck. Only a long wait would be a negative.

The World Is Not Ready For the Cybertruck
Tesla is smart to keep people from getting a hold of a Cybertruck without giving them a non-disclosure agreement. It's causing curiosity and a frenzy as people want to see the Cybertruck for themselves.
Of course, this didn't stop someone from sharing a video of the Cybertruck UI while it was charging. This video gave away important information about the charging, which helped deduce the approximate range of the Cybertruck.
The Cybertruck will also be able to hopefully take advantage of the new V4 Superchargers that are starting to spring up in the U.S. These will allow up to 350 kW charging.
There might be another reason for Tesla showing off the Cybertruck, and it is to get people interested in Tesla. Even if they don't buy a Cybertruck, they may buy another Tesla vehicle.
Of course, we will keep you up-to-date with any new information about the Cybertruck, so stay tuned for more updates!

Hi! My name is Jeremy Johnson, and I am a Tesla investor and supporter and own a 2022 Model 3 RWD EV and I don't have range anxiety :). I first invested in Tesla in 2017 after years of following Elon Musk and admiring his work ethic and intelligence. Since then, I've become a Tesla bull, covering anything about Tesla I can find, while also dabbling in other electric vehicle companies like Aptera. I cover Tesla and EV developments at Torque News.

Hi Badnder,
Torque News has different reporters, who each specialize in a particular model or brand coverage. Some reporters focus only on Cybertruck, while others, like Denis Flierl, focus exclusively on Subaru. You are welcome to only follow his coverage for Subaru news and ignore the Tesla news.

Armen, that was such a helpful and reasonable solution that you gave to Badnder regarding his turmoil about the Cybertruck. Seriously, you should run for political office. TY for your reasoned response.
