The information also includes a top-down view of the rear casted section of the vehicle. These details provide insights into the size and design of the Cybertruck.
Updates on Tesla in China
Tesla has raised the prices of the long-range versions of the Model 3 and Model Y in China. The Model 3 now has a wait time of six to eight weeks. The wholesale sales figures for October show approximately 47,000 Model Y units sold and just under 25,000 Model 3 units sold. Of the total, around 43,500 vehicles were exported from China. These updates provide an indication of demand and Tesla's production volumes in China.
Developments in India
The Prime Minister's office in India is reportedly discussing policies related to electric vehicles and import tariffs, which could impact Tesla's plans to invest in the country. Tesla's Commerce Minister is scheduled to meet with Elon Musk to discuss these matters. Furthermore, a new category for electric vehicles may be introduced, potentially allowing for different tax rates. These updates suggest progress in making India a viable market for Tesla's presence and potential investments.
