Tesla has closed a record 2021. Simultaneously with the disclosure of financial data, the company & agrave; americana has finally shared an update on its product roadmap . There was a lot of anticipation for this information. Many hoped that the manufacturer would finally clarify many issues, in particular on the launch of the Cybertruck electric pickup and its specifications.
The company said a lot of interesting things, although probably many hoped that Elon Musk would communicate a lot more; details. However, while discussing the roadmap, Musk pointed out that he would not offer a full update as some of the products deserve dedicated space . An interesting detail that makes it clear that more & ugrave; further news could come forward.
Let's see, however, the main news; that Tesla told.
CYBERTRUCK AL 2023 
There is no good news for the expected electric pickup. Tesla has officially postponed the debut of this model again . The reason is; to be found in supply chain problems and, in particular, the shortage of chips. Further constraints would relate to the development of technologies associated with this vehicle. There is, however, no precise date when Tesla intends to start production of this model. Elon Musk, in fact, “hopes next year”. The supply chain problem will bring the American manufacturer not to launch any new vehicle on the market during this 2022. This means that we will not even see the Tesla Roadster.
Nothing & egrave; was said, however, about the specifications of the electric pickup. We know that there are some news; but Tesla didn't want to say anything. Given what Musk said that some products deserve a dedicated space, one can & ograve; assume that the constructor wants to show the final version of the Cybertruck within a specific event. This is a speculation but already; some reports in the past had suggested this possibility.
No updates on the Tesla Semi as well, although Tesla has shared some new photos of its electric truck. Given what has been announced, however, we will probably see it only in 2023.
TESLA FROM 25 THOUSAND DOLLARS 
Musk si & egrave; also paused to talk about the $ 25,000 Tesla promised during Battery Day. speculated and that someone assumed imminent. Apparently, for the moment there will be no; some $ 25,000 Tesla. Elon Musk, in fact, said that they are not working on it . This does not mean by & ograve ;, that it will not arrive & agrave; never. The CEO promises that they will do it sooner or later, even if, at the moment, they are very busy on other projects.
We are not currently working on a $ 25,000 car. At some point we will. We have enough things to do right now. Too many frankly.
NEW GIGAFACTORY 
also addressed the Tesla chapter > new Gigafactories in Texas and Germany . As regards the European one, authorizations are awaited from the authorities; of the country, as we all know. There is, however, a novelty. In fact, the CEO has made it known that, initially, the Model Ys built inside this factory will have 2170 cells and not new ones with the 4680 format.
As far as the Texas factory is concerned, the Model Y produced here will instead have the structural battery pack with the new 4680 cells. Series production will start; as soon as Model Y's receive final certification. By the end of the year, the company could also announce the locations of new Gigafactory.
