From what we have now been capable of be taught from our sources, that is the one Cybertruck in Canada in the intervening time, and whereas it’s in Quebec proper now it isn’t anticipated to remain there, and must be heading west to Ontario subsequent week.
Now that the Cybertruck has made its solution to Canada for testing, the massive query now could be when will the primary deliveries happen. Whereas we don’t know the reply to that, we are able to look again at the newest Tesla launch in Canada, which was the Mannequin Y.
The primary Mannequin Y in Canada was noticed in downtown Toronto in January 2020, after lots of of sightings throughout the US. That sighting got here six months earlier than the primary supply, which happened six months later in Vancouver. If Tesla follows the same timeline with the Cybertruck, we would see the primary Cybertruck deliveries in Canada within the late spring or early summer time of 2024.
Nevertheless the Cybertruck is a very totally different animal, and in accordance with CEO Elon Musk is one which shall be tough to provide, so the manufacturing ramp will doubtless not be as fast because the Mannequin Y, which might delay a Canadian launch past that timeline.
