Production and Delivery Timeline
The Cybertruck, unveiled four years ago, has faced production delays. While initial deliveries are imminent, full production capacity is not expected until 2025. This means a significant wait time for the majority of the estimated 2 million reservation holders.

Original pricing estimates were $39,000, $49,000, and $69,000, respectively. However, official pricing details are expected to be revealed at the launch event.
