Tesla started delivering the Cybertruck late in November last year.
特斯拉在去年11月底开始交付Cybertruck。
The vehicle pricing starts at $79,990 for the all-wheel drive version and $99,990 for the more premium Cyberbeast version.
该车的售价从79,990美元的全时四驱版开始,到更多高端的Cyberbeast版本的99,990美元。
A lower-priced rear-wheel drive version of the truck will be available in 2025, as per the company website, starting at $60,990.
据该公司网站介绍,2025年将推出价格更低的后驱版卡车,起价为60,990美元。
However, during Cybertruck's unveil in November 2019, the company said that the entry-level version of the truck would start at just $39,900 and the premium variant at $69,900.
然而,在2019年11月Cybertruck发布时,该公司称该卡车的入门版将以仅39,900美元的价格起步,高端版本为69,900美元。
Why It Matters: Tesla is currently ramping up production of the Cybertruck with the aim of delivering 250,000 units, starting in 2025.
特斯拉目前正在加紧生产Cybertruck,目标是从2025年开始交付25万辆。
According to Kelley Blue Book estimates, Tesla sold 8,755 Cybertrucks in the second quarter in the U.S., and just 2,803 in the first quarter.
根据凯利蓝皮书估计,特斯拉第二季度在美国销售了8,755辆Cybertruck,第一季度仅销售了2,803辆。
Cybertruck production is on track to achieve profitability by the end of the year, Tesla said during its second-quarter earnings.
特斯拉在其第二季度财报中表示,Cybertruck的生产计划将在年底前实现盈利。
The company also said that it has started testing its prototype Cybertruck produced with in-house "dry" cathode 4680 cells in July. Once it goes into production, the use of in-house dry cathode 4680 cells would enable major cost reduction, it added.
该公司还表示,已于7月开始测试其使用自主“干式”阴极4680电池生产的原型Cybertruck。一旦投产,使用自主干式阴极4680电池将能够实现重大成本降低。
The launch of production Cybertrucks with dry cathode 4680 cells is expected in Q4, Tesla's Vice President of Vehicle Engineering Lars Moravy said last month.
特斯拉车辆工程副总裁Lars Moravy上个月表示,在第四季度预计推出采用干式阴极4680电池的量产Cybertruck。
