Brownlee pointed out that the highest-end model, the Cyberbeast, has less driving range and a higher price point than Tesla initially stated.
Meanwhile, Gene Munster, a Tesla investor and managing partner at Deepwater Asset Management, told Bloomberg that the Cybertruck was “a lot more expensive than I thought.”
“They need to get production up to get the price down, and they know they can’t produce a lot of them next year,” Munster said. “The reality is that the Cybertruck isn’t really out yet.”
Earlier this fall, experts told The Post that the Cybertruck was more likely to be a niche entry into Tesla’s product lineup.
The delivery event included several demonstrations of the Cybertruck’s supposed prowess, including footage of its bulletproof doors withstanding gunfire and its highest-end model winning a drag race against a Porsche 911.
“If Al Capone showed up with a Tommy gun and emptied the entire magazine in the car door, you would survive,” Musk quipped at one point during the presentation.
At one point, Tesla design chief Franz von Holzhausen soft-tossed a baseball into the Cybertruck’s window — a callback to the disastrous incident at the 2019 launch event, when he shattered one of the truck’s windows with a metal ball.
Musk also touted some of the more impressive specs, such as the Cyberbeast’s 11,000-pound towing capacity that outstrips Ford’s electric F-150 Lightning and its ability to go 0 to 60 mph in 2.6 seconds.
