Tesla Inc’s TSLA hotly-anticipated electric vehicle Cybertruck’s supposed latest photographs are doing the rounds on social media.
What Happened: The new photographs of the yet-to-be launched Cybertruck reveal a smaller looking pickup compared to the original design — with removable side mirrors and a big wiper blade — as shared on the microblogging site Twitter.
Twitter user Sawyer Merritt shared two photographs of the Cybertruck, which he said were sourced from an online owners club forum.

Why It Matters: Cybertruck grabbed 7.29 million annual searches globally last year and was the second most looked-up yet-to-be launched electric vehicles behind Tesla’s electric sports car Roadster, as per a report by car-leasing research firm Lease Fetcher.
Production of the Tesla Cybertruck has reportedly been delayed until 2023 as the automaker makes changes and improvements to the vehicle.
Tesla aims to make a limited number of the Cybertrucks in the first quarter of 2023 before increasing output, Reuters reported earlier this month.
Price Action: Tesla shares closed 5.26% lower at $943.9 a share on Friday.
