EV giant Tesla Inc TSLA commenced deliveries of its Cybertruck in Mexico on Wednesday, making it the first country outside the U.S. where the stainless steel truck is delivered.
What Happened: Tesla took to social media platform X to share pictures from the first Cybertruck deliveries in the U.S.-neighbouring country.
“Hola, estoy aquí,” Tesla wrote in Spanish from its official X account dedicated to Cybertruck updates.
Tesla started delivering the Cybertruck— its latest offering— in November in the U.S.
Why It Matters: The Foundation series Cybertruck starts at 2,199,900 Mexican pesos (US$112,258.19) for the base version and at 2,599,900 Mexican pesos for the more premium Cyberbeast version in Mexico. The foundation series refers to a limited and pricier edition of the Cybertruck with laser-etched foundation series badges and premium accessories.
The Cybertruck is currently among the more costly EVs with its high price point. However, Tesla intends to make it a common sight on roads.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has previously said that the company intends to make about 250,000 units of the truck a year starting in 2025.
