Pretty surprised to see this today. Maybe we can convince them to get into the motox business?

Looks more like a $900 quad. 10 mph is weak.

Does it even have front suspension? Doesn't seem like it.

Quads are the worst for kids. But this one's from Tesla so they will sell every one they make.

More interest in power sports can only be a good thing for them, or maybe not.

Musk used to ride dirt bikes as a kid. I think he or someone close had an incident and said no to Tesla building bikes

He said no road bikes because he got hit by a truck on one but is open to dirt bikes and ATVs.

I hate these types of people. If everyone who rode a dirt bike quit after an incident, the sport wouldn’t exist. Get back on the horse.

Plus, I’ve been riding most my life and I’ve never been decapitated because my autopilot system decided the gap under a semi trailer deck was drivable space. The Tesla tester had to stop driving electric cars after that incident.

Wow...not only does he continue to sound like a giant idiot, but also a puss.

Doesn't look like it has any front suspension...

Says delivering in January but the look and the price scream chinese rebrand, if that's the case it's anyone's guess when they'll ship. They're probably sold out already.

Gotta love the promo shots of kids riding them without helmets. Look tall and narrow too.

I’d bet the giant idiot would be the one that’s not worth billions of dollars. So take a look in the mirror

Daaaang, that's a sweet soulless equivalence you've created there. It's impossible to be an idiot as long as you have lots of money. Fuckin' nice one, bud.

I thought “quad” is a Suzuki trademark. I’m surprised Tesla is able to use it.

That's a good question. I'm assuming based on Tesla's history with late deadlines that it is at least 2 years out.
I reserved it the minute you could place a reservation back in 2019. I'm not buying any truck because I really want the CT. It's my dream car (don't laugh). I'll just continue to drive my POS KIA Sportage with the carrier until I get mine...

Why do they have to be ugly and slow as a snail and grossly overpriced?

I don’t care what it looks like, but if they ever release something with a truck bed, they’re going to print money. They’re really dropping the ball letting Ford and rivian get the holeshot

I’m in the same boat. I’ll keep driving my Diesel Colorado until the Cybertruck finally arrives

"Quadrunner" is the trademark. Also, Tesla's official name is "Cyberquad," which is definitely not a Suzuki trademark.



I hope Tesla doesn't accidentally undo all the progress the other manufacturers have made with regard to ATV safety and public acceptance. You would think lots more of the tree-hugging types would be OK with a Tesla-branded "death machine," but who knows?

I was actually just thinking that the other day. They did originally say 2021 production start. I guess the pandemic, supply chain, and Tesla's notorious late release threw them off. Kind of missed out but they will still sell a sht ton of Cybertrucks.
