Tesla is many things, but it is by no means a failure Tesla was the company that proved that electric cars could be cool, not the crummy, horrible-looking electric cars that automakers used to send out

But what about the almost too futuristic Tesla Cybertruck? Tesla CEO Elon Musk admits that this electric truck could fail But what are the odds that it actually will?

There is no denying that the Cyber Truck is a strange looking vehicle The design is quite unique among Teslas Blocky and angular, the car looks like it could have appeared in a PS1-era cyberpunk game And Musk admitted on Twitter that this may not work to Cybertruck's advantage

I disagree with the opinion that the CyberTruck looks like it was built by aliens from the future In fact, it appears to have been created in a fever dream that Mask had after playing "Deus Ex" too much One thing, however, is correct It will not resemble any of the other electric vehicles that will be on the market in the near future And many electric trucks are on the horizon

The Cybertruck is definitely up to the task, and is one of many electric trucks coming on the market, including the GMC Hummer EV, Ford F-150 Lighting, and Rivian R1T

And all of these trucks seem to be typical ideas of what a modern truck should be Mask says they all look the same, and perhaps for good reason After all, America loves trucks The decades-long dominance of Ford's F-Series and the fact that the top three best-selling vehicles in 2021 (so far) are all trucks of some sort attest to that

It is perfectly understandable why future electric truck makers would stick with a design that seems proven to work But it also gives cyber trucks with a more car-like feel a chance to stand out from the crowd And standing out may be enough to peak interest long enough for prospective buyers to see what the cybertruck actually has to offer

Just as long as the mask tries to demonstrate how safe and indestructible the cybertruck is and not just a window being repeatedly destroyed by a metal ball As long as he avoids the video of the windows being repeatedly destroyed by metal balls

Tesla has always been something of a fashion statement After all, that is one of the reasons Tesla has become so popular Sure, the car is practical, especially with regard to the distance it can travel on a single charge, but practicality only goes so far

Tesla has succeeded in making a name for itself by finally making electric cars desirable Not only was the first Tesla able to offer people the opportunity to skip the gas tank without sacrificing performance or driving experience, it looked good while doing so What's more, it had the luxury feel one would expect from a luxury car manufacturer

While Tesla has its faults, and the company's infamous delays can be quite frustrating, buying a Tesla is a good mix of all the elements The CyberTruck will no doubt do the same

If the CyberTruck were just a Model X with a new skin, the odds of it failing would have been much higher It was certainly a novelty, but people might have shied away from the design if they could have gotten the same thing in a more traditional looking car

But the CyberTruck is unique and has its own features Sure, it has many of the things that are in the Model 3 and Model S, such as Tesla's own Autopilot infotainment system, but it also has many unique features

The main point here is that it is a truck, with all the power and capability that comes with it Even the least expensive single-motor cybertruck can tow up to 7,500 pounds, just shy of the 7,700 pounds of the upcoming Ford F-150 Lightning Dual-motor cybertrucks, on the other hand, can tow 10,000 pounds, and tri-motor cybertrucks can tow 14,000 pounds

This is not as much as those trucks, but still a lot Especially when you consider that trucks that can pull more than 14,000 lbs are running on gas or diesel, not electric

Besides, the Cyber Truck has a rear bed, like all good trucks, and a ramp instead of a standard tailgate According to Elon Musk, various outdoor accessories can be added to the rear And it has the same range as Tesla's other vehicles

More than 250 miles for the cheapest rear-wheel-drive model and more than 500 miles for the three-motor version of the truck Assuming, as Musk claimed when he announced the cancellation of the Tesla Model S Plaid Plus, that we don't assume that more than 400 miles is too much driving

While the design may not appeal to those who prefer a more traditional truck aesthetic, the fact that the Cybertruck is, in fact, a truck will appeal to truck owners who are thinking about going electric Besides, its power and range may also appeal to electric vehicle enthusiasts who want to get more out of their vehicles

Will the truck fail? Of course, it's hard to say right now, since the first cybertruck models won't go on sale until later this year; inexpensive rear-wheel-drive models under $40,000 could be popular on that price alone, but don't expect them until sometime next year

However, given Tesla's track record and the fact that the Cybertruck continues to offer all of Tesla's key features in truck form, it would be a huge shock if sales of the Cybertruck are so bad that it is considered a failure Bizarre design or not, it is still a Tesla As long as Tesla delivers on its promises, it should sell just fine
