Some Tesla Cybertrucks are being delivered to buyers this week, four years after the first announcement of the vehicle in 2019. Andrew Hawkins, transportation editor at the Verge, joined CBS News to talk about how the market for electric vehicles has changed since the truck was first unveiled.

Same old bs. Cyber truck will sell like crazy
Slowing EV market? I would say it's already dead!
"A slowing EV Market"
This as the model y is the best selling car. Imagine if the EV market starts accelerating?
Love the skepticism. This truck will sell millions per year by year 2026
You're telling me people who drive trucks don't like to show off???
They haven’t missed anything . CT is not for the traditional truck people, they already got over a million people that preordered it… and it’s USA that loves trucks and people love trucks.
The media once again is making all these “predictions” and then be gobsmacked when proven wrong. It happens over and over again with Tesla.
Correction. Slowing VEHICLE market.
Who are these bots you interview
These people don’t know what they are saying
BS, do not know much about the tech it is used in it
Right now Joe Rogan's looking out his window in anticipation for his long awaited Christmas present. Inside it lies a heart-felt letter from his lover, Mr. Elon Musk.
It has been years in the making because they weren't expecting Model Y to become the best selling cars in the world.
Is anyone going to address the money grab?
Well we can obviously tell these people hate tesla
It looks cheap & gay
It's hideous… I'll take 2
3:03 The EV Market is not cooling. Sales have slowed down because the federal tax incentive right now requires you to have a tax liability of $7500.
After January 1 of 2024 that’s $7500 turns into a gift that they take off right at check out when you purchase the vehicle.
You don’t need the tax liability anymore
And some electric vehicles that did not get the $7500 this year will get 3750 in 2024
Those people who want electric vehicles, and are in the know, are waiting for 2024
You know it’s propaganda when they decide to talk about the glass break in 2019 and not the car door that bullets are bouncing off of in 2023.
Looks exactly like a tin shed
Why do they keep calling Ford their competition? You can buy a Ford Lightning, right now. They are piled up all over the place. Try and grab a CT.
This bit seemed like it was just to bash on tesla lol. You can clearly tell they don't like Elon 😂
There was Electric Ford pickups.
Toyota electric mail trucks.
Do you research anything you say?
This new truck is for use on Mars.
Elon is gonna collect data.
Only nice if we were in the video game Carmageddon. If you are a pedestrian or the car in front or behind, poor thing but great damage to those who make mistakes😂. Their typical customer will be every drug dealer in Around the world, 😂 but do they only sell it if you pay for it in Bitcoin?
I only pay attention to real car reviewers and owners
Wall Street, and MSM really don't understand what Cybertruck is all about. There isn't any competition for CT. This vehicle will attract buyers that aren't really of the traditional pickup truck ilk. I think of it more like an armored model S with a bed. Way more functional than any traditional car, and just as functional as most light trucks. No rust, or parking lot dings to worry about.
After watching Jason Cumisas'CyberTrk epic test-drive in his Hagerty Channel,3 words from me, I WANT ONE!!!!
People that think its ugly just dont like elon
WIth the body being made of the "Stainless Steel" that was developed by Tesla, it reveals an absence of "crumple" zones i.e. sections of the exterior body that will collapse under impact. These zones absorb most of the force of a crash protecting the people in the passenger compartment. They also protect the people in vehicles that get hit. This vehicle has not been submitted to either the U.S. or european safety testing agencies. Without the "crumple zones" the Cybertrucks will not be allowed on public highways. In addition the acceleration of the vehicle clocks out at 0 to 60 in 2.7 seconds. There are very few drivers, able to keep the torque generated by that acceleration under control. This vehicle will probably not be street legal in a great many jurisdictions.
What is that thing
One ugly truck.
Slowing ev market?😅
Cybertruck is popular because it doesn't look like a regular truck. Whats this guy talking about. Watch Top Gears video on it, much better, CBS literally just knocking down Tesla and Elon
They haven’t missed anything. America loves trucks. Plus Tesla is far ahead of everyone else in EV’s.
It was late because they had to build a factory. The legacy EV market is failing, not Tesla.
Yes, it’s $20k more expensive, but what trucks, ICE and EV, have not gone up in price? Also, thanks to Brandon that everything is way more expensive than 2019.
Bullet proof glass will still shatter. They should have pointed this out for the demonstration. LOL
Any shot they can take they will…Real car reviwers are loving it so far!
Not much room in the cargo area. And the wedge design looks like a run-under accident going somewhere to happen. I'll pass.
Playstation 1 would be so proud
You save 10-40k buying a 2-3 year old used conventional truck and paying gas over 10 years. Call me Elon when it saves me money. The price tag along makes it out of reach for most americans. I'll keep my 2011 Silverado for now. This is clearly not a truck for people who use trucks. This is for city truck owners who barely use them and make over 200k a year. So not hard workers either. This is a show truck.
BOYCOTT TESLA MOTORS
Difficult to watch the negativity and general lack of deep knowledge on the subjects they are speaking about. Let’s hope for a future of all electric vehicles and better understanding.
This vehicle is way past it's expiration date. Sure they took a lot of orders but how many will actually go through with it now. The value will drastically drop on these trucks. ( I hesitate to call them trucks) People will be upside down on the loans and take a huge loss just to sell them. Terrible investment.
Bring the truck to San Francisco and let’s see how the windows hold up when the local thieves get a wack at it.
