Tesla Gigafactory Texas continues to point out indications that it’s about to start out the preliminary manufacturing of the all-electric Cybertruck. Throughout a latest drone flyover, an avid Tesla watcher was in a position to {photograph} dozens of obvious Cybertruck rear megacasts.
Final December, a leaked picture from Giga Texas supplied a fast glimpse of the Cybertruck’s rear megacast. The leaked photograph appeared to have been taken within the all-electric pickup truck’s manufacturing line, which was in its tooling section then. EV fans had been fairly impressed by the leaked photograph, because it appeared to point out what might be one more revolutionary megacast.

Photos of what seems to be the same part had been just lately sighted by longtime Giga Texas watcher Joe Tegtmeyer throughout a flyover on June 2. Piled up on the north finish of the ability had been a number of dozens of rear megacasts. The elements had been fairly in contrast to the rear megacasts which might be used within the Mannequin Y, which is at present being produced on the facility. As a substitute, the megacasts appeared like a useless ringer to the rear casting from the leaked picture in December.
In a means, it’s no shock to see Tesla producing samples of the Cybertruck’s megacasts at this stage, particularly contemplating Elon Musk’s estimate that the automobile might enter manufacturing later this yr. Late final yr, elements of the 9,000-ton Giga Press from IDRA, which Elon Musk confirmed can be used for the all-electric pickup truck, began arriving in Giga Texas. Footage and images from the earlier month urged that Tesla was already testing the manufacturing of the Cybertruck’s entrance megacast as properly.
Primarily based on official pictures launched by Tesla, the Cybertruck’s manufacturing line is being constructed out very properly. Elon Musk urged as a lot in April, when he famous that he walked the entire manufacturing line at Giga Texas for a number of hours. Musk appeared very optimistic after his go to, noting that the automobile was “gonna be superior” and that it “appears like the long run.”
