Why It Matters: Until the start of Cybertruck deliveries in late November last year, the Model S and Model X were Tesla's only premium offerings.
重要性：在去年11月底Cybertruck交付开始之前，Model S和Model X是特斯拉唯一的高端产品。
According to data from automotive research company Kelley Blue Book, Tesla sold 16,692 Cybertrucks in the third quarter in the U.S., trumping EV trucks from rivals including the Ford F-150 Lightning and the Rivian R1T, to become the third-best-selling EV behind Model Y and Model 3.
根据汽车研究公司Kelley Blue Book的数据，特斯拉在美国第三季度售出了16,692辆Cybertruck，超过了竞争对手的电动卡车，包括福特F-150 Lightning和Rivian R1万亿，成为Model Y和Model 3之后的第三畅销电动车。
However, the surge in sales of the Cybertruck negatively impacted the Model S and X. According to KBB estimates, Model S sales in the U.S. fell by about 47% year-on-year in the U.S. in the last quarter while Model X sales slipped by 29%.
