Tesla Targeting November Unveiling For Its Electric Pickup

Tesla plans on unveiling its long-awaited all-electric pickup truck in November, Elon Musk has confirmed.

In late July, Musk said the pickup would be unveiled in two to three months and by early September, the company gave itself a little extra wiggle room stating the car’s release had been most likely pushed back until November.

Taking to Twitter, Musk has confirmed that November is still being targeted for the pickup’s premiere.

Tesla’s first electric pickup truck will sport a design radically different than any other offering from the electric car manufacturer. Additionally, Tesla says the vehicle will be priced at under $50,000 and handle like a Porsche 911. What’s more, the pickup will apparently have no less than six seats, offer up to 300,000 lbs (136,077 kg) of towing capacity and more than 400-500 miles (645 – 800 km) of range.

Car manufacturers including Rivian, Ford, and General Motors have all thrown their hats into the electric pickup truck market over the past 12 months or so, meaning Tesla could face some serious competition when its offering does hit the market.

As for when production and deliveries of the Tesla pickup will commence, well, that remains a mystery. Tesla has a habit of unveiling its future products years before they actually hit the market. After all, it has been almost two years since the next-gen Roadster and Tesla Semi were shown to the world and neither have hit the production line and won’t until late next year at the earliest.

Meanwhile, Tesla also needs to put the Model Y into production before the pickup.
