    Tesla Fans Frustrated by Musk’s Reveal of More Expensive, Less Impressive Cybertruck
    Handing off the steel-plated electric vehicles to a select few owners, the Tesla CEO did not directly announce their range or pricing

    Elon Musk appeared at Tesla‘s Gigafactory in Austin, Texas, on Thursday to unveil the long-awaited Cybertruck, first teased in a disastrous 2019 demo that left the prototype with two shattered windows. And while nothing broke during this launch, which was broadcast live on X (formerly Twitter), it nonetheless drew mixed reviews from Tesla customers, with some disappointed by higher prices and diminished capabilities compared to the vehicle’s target specs.

    The sharp-angled, stainless steel Cybertruck has been a production nightmare for Tesla, bedeviled by design flaws and repeated delays, and few have been finished to date. Musk drove one onto a stage about 25 minutes after the scheduled start time of the hyped event, which saw him hand off several of the vehicles to a select few owners — most of whom had to be shown how to open the passenger door using a button inside the vehicle.
