Looks like the top tier "Beast Mode" gets 845 hp. So basically a wash with a QM R1T
Is the only way to watch this is to have a X account?

I hope Marshawn Lynch sues Elon for naming it that.

Not going to lie. This thing has some amazing capabilities.

Four wheel steering would be nice, along with steer by wire, 800v architecture, etc. But does the automatic tonneau cover work?

On the flipside, they are holding off on that price as long as possible it seems.

Are they really STILL not going to announce a price?

I wouldn’t know. I wanted to watch it but not enough to create a free X account…

I’m sure someone will post a synopsis somewhere.

No range ... no price ... did list 2.6 0-60 in Beast mode .. which is cool but probably the least useful of the truck stats
Looks like it's on the website now. I won't spoil the surprise.

Here you go. Cybertruck website has been updated.

Up to 340 miles of range, prices are much better than expected tbh. Seems far more compelling than I expected. No 500 miles, of course.

Website mentions "range extender" for up to an additional ~150 miles of range but can't find any info on that yet.
