Elon Musk Teases a Global Cybertruck: ‘Bigger is Not Always Better!’
Summary
Hold onto your steering wheels, folks! Elon Musk recently teased that Tesla might just whip up a special Cybertruck for international fans longing for some North American beefy truck action. The Cybertruck rolled out for its debut in the glorious land of the stars and stripes back in 2023, handing keys to eager customers in November. But hold your horses! While Tesla took the Cybertruck on a whirlwind promotional tour through Asia and Europe, they didn’t quite hammer down any treaties for an overseas launch. Now, we can’t ignore the elephant—err, sky-high pickup truck—in the room: its massive size! With its angular design, the Cybertruck might just find itself stuck in traffic on those snug cobblestone streets of Europe and Asia. Cue the colorful commentary from Tesla’s VP of Vehicle Engineering, Lars Moravy, who told TopGear in December, “The pickup market in America is like a buffet, while Europe’s is more like a tapas bar. And don’t even get started on those 3.2-millimeter rounding rules they have!” As Musk gears up to tackle the cyber-bull market overseas, it’s clear that Tesla might need to whip out a smaller truck design—or perhaps a Cybertruck-esque vehicle that won’t leave pedestrians dodging its gigantic frame. A compact companion, maybe? “And you know what?” Musk himself chimed in, hinting at changes ahead. “Yeah. We can totally make it work, folks!” Meanwhile, back in the USA, the Cybertruck is like that rock band everyone always talks about: they’re just ramping up their production stage at Gigafactory Texas. However, we caught wind that one lucky Cybertruck somehow made its way to Germany, likely rolling off to a new home after someone brought it over like a prized pet. So what’s next? Will the Cybertruck grace the streets of foreign lands, or will it continue its solo tour in the U.S.? Stay tuned, my fellow truck enthusiasts!

Let’s see if Tesla takes the plunge into the international pickup pond—it could be a splash worth watching!
