Tesla can't find buyers for the current backlog of nearly 2,400, or $200 million worth of Cybertrucks, despite claiming over a million orders were received.
Last I heard, sales were down 94% in Germany, so that means they are, technically, for sale in Germany. I think they’re very different than American ones though
Cybertrucks aren’t street legal in stock configuration in Czechia, however I’ve seen one idiot on Facebook who bought one and paid about the same as the car on top of it to make it street legal. It looks even dumber lol.
The cybertruck doesn’t pass a multitude of safety regulations. And is therefore not street legal in the EU. But there are ways around that by directly importing it from the US. The Dodge Ram is not street legal in the EU either but has been making use of an importing loophole to get on the streets.
I’ve never seen one in Australia. They don’t meet the ADR (Australian Design Rules) so they literally cannot be sold except for use on private land - a farmer could drive one around their field if they so desired. When asked about international sales Musk said he didn’t want to design it for a global market because that would “make the design worse” which is really saying something.
Well, not banned explicitly, they just didn’t pass the safety regulations all vehicles must adhere to. Main issue is pedestrian safety, due to the sharp edges of the panels.
The UK won’t allow them at all. Recently, someone imported one elsewhere in Europe. When they brought it to the UK, it got seized as dangerous. Even though it wasn’t even UK registered. I believe several other countries view it in the same light.
I’d actually be surprised if they even fit on a lot of European roads.
Are these pieces of junk for sale anywhere outside of Trumpistan? I travel all over the EU for work constantly and I’ve never see one over here, ever.
I see entirely too many of these pieces of shit in Vancouver.
I don’t think they’re legal in EU, couldn’t pass the safety tests.
Makes sense.

Teslas are. Not Cybertrucks.
Ah, that makes sense.
they tend to fall apart

Find pictures and share, please. I want to gaze at the monstrousity and laugh with schadenfreude.

He managed to make it even uglier.
It’s like sprinkling glitter on a turd, it’s still a turd.
Except, it isn’t glitter. It’s more like puking on a turd.

This article is from last year but still applicable. Given sales and events since then I think the title can be updated from “any time soon” to “ever”, and that warms my heart a little. https://www.drive.com.au/news/why-tesla-cybertruck-not-coming-australia/
So glad we don’t have the cyberfuck in Australia, the stupid massive pickups are bad enough.
EU banned them from the steets, as they arnt safe i believe, it doesnt follow thier regulations.

Tbf that applies to a lot of the newer SUVs.
They are all over the place in Norway.
