What's amazing is that the people in this clip were able to get through the interviews almost without laughing.

Stainless steel., just don't get it wet, clean it immediately if it gets dirty, and don't drive it off road and you'll be fine. You could also pay an extra $5,000 for a protective coat that comes standard on every other vehicle sold.

The entire Cybertruck thing is so funny at so many levels and speaks volumes about social media age.... Our real life Tony Stark fake genius invents a totally unnecessary car, delays it for years, tripples the costs while worsening traffic safety and everybody is admiring him because is looks like terminator iron-man stealth tank... the entire thing is so solely style driven 🤣

It's not only hard to build, it's nearly impossible to look at.

he's saying that "experts were saying it was impossible" as if he created a flying car than ran on solar power. He created a boxy electric truck that costs 100k

The cyber truck looks like every child’s first attempt at drawing a car😂

Just imagine if this monster hits your regular car at high speed😢

Now is definitely NOT the time to be buying a car. Average car cost $47K?! That's insane! Check your ego at the door - you need a vehicle to get back and forth to work, not to impress anyone. An auto finance rate of 7%+ is an insult to anyone with excellent credit. No thanks. Those new cars can sit on the lot and rot away for all I care.

We have one of them at the tesla store in the mall near our house now, it looks way better than expected in person. The propotions don't look right in photos but when you're right next to it looks slick. changed my opinion on it for the better. Was roped off though, couldn't look inside.

The stainless steel was not the problem. The problem was when they went 48v every part that had anything to do with electricity had to be custom designed and tested out. 1000s of parts... everything available is 12v they need 10000 of 1000s of pieces in 48v every week in order to meet capacity. They are hoping to be at 1000 a week by the beginning of 25'

One note. If you have to scrap a gigacasting the entire part is made of the same "stuff" so it's easy to recycle it right away. You don't have to take it back apart and sort out all the different types of metals to recycle it.

It’s like if a 5yo drew a truck with a distinct lack of design 😂

Let’s be fair I bought a Ford F150 for 38k in 2018 today my 2023 F150 was 72K. CNBC can we agree EVERYTHING is much MORE expensive than 2019??😂

Interesting how CNBC Produces great investigative journalism not shying away from being skeptic when it is not about one of their advertiser's products!

we build stainless steel cars in the Philippines by hand about 50 years ago.

NBC did a reasonable job in this report. You knew it wasn't going to be pro Tesla. It wasn't a hit piece against Tesla either. Surprised!

I just love they had the balls to do it.

I remember when John Voelcker was still editor of Green Car Reports back in 2012 and he told his readers that Tesla would never amount to anything. Lucky for him lack of vision doesn't stand in the way of a career.

As a mechanical engineer, I have to say a lot of things about the cyber truck seem odd. Like the design decisions seems like it would make things harder for them, while not really having a practical benefit. But I mean... I guess?

love the t shirt in reference to the window accident last time lmao.

DeLorean was not 'made of' stainless steel: It used thin stainless panels glued on to the fiberglass body.

Now we need a feature film with the Cyberttuck

- Elon Musk introduces the Cybertruck (0:16) - The truck's stainless steel exoskeleton is a manufacturing challenge (1:03) - Design driven by material properties (2:11) - Skepticism over its aggressive design (2:42) - Production delays and challenges (3:58) - Introduction of a unique airbending manufacturing process (7:26) - Tesla's gigacasting technique may be employed in Cybertruck's construction (9:47) - Battery cell production could limit Cybertruck's output (11:44)

Kind of makes me appreciate it more, just knowing how hard to produce and develop it.

So Tesla learned air bending to protect themselves against the fire nation 😮

Thank you for going deep into technical details that have not been discussed in other - mainly -videos.

The final thickness of the steel is 1.8 mm so not 3 mm as was originally stated.

Thank you CNBC for doing a comprehensive piece on the issues of actually building this crazy new-look design of a vehicle. Good context. It is clear there are big challenges, so it will be up to Tesla to demonstrate what sort of a car company they are to make a few, or a lot, of these stainless steel body trucks. Definitely is an interesting truck. And will be interesting to see what this will all be like in production, and how long they hold up, and whether the price can come down over the next few years.

Hats off to Elon and the team, and hats off to CNBC for this documentary. As car enthusiasts with limited engineering knowledge, we were able to learn a lot from this concise documentary. I wish there were more documentaries like it. This is excellent! 👍👍👍

Someone in my city of Bountiful, UT has a cyber truck. Fun to see it driving it around ☺.

Saw someone driving one last week on I-280. looks kinda funky but unique at the same time!

Immune to corrosion, meanwhile in reallife cybertruck rusts in few weeks. xDDDDD

So excited for this. Just placed my order for the Foundation Cyberbeast.

I LOVE the upgraded stainless steel technology aspect. Its looks sharp.

An unbiased video on Tesla? I'm shocked

Thanks CNBC to present details about making cybertruck...this whole thing will encourage our engineers and experts to invent more and more

The ramp - I predict it will go great. They have learned from past ramp ups. And they have said this time and again - “the hardest part is making the machine that makes the machine”. So the hardest part was just making the machines that make the Cybertruck. That part is mostly done.

Finally, a fair assessment of the cyber truck from a major media outlet

thank you finally a video with real experts explaining the process , not some guy bending aluminum to wrap a window frame.

I drive a Honda Element and obviously don't care how a vehicle looks. I only care about reliability and functionality for what the vehicle was built for.So I'm really curious how this will work out for Tesla and what's next and will it change other manufacturers to question what people really want.Most likely i will never get a cyber truck but really want them to succeed.

I hope to get this thing at some point. I have a Model Y but will wait for mass production is hitting and they cut the prices.

Very nice to see an unbiased video just talking about the facts, and fairly giving praise and some critiques, I will be definitely buying a cyber truck when I can afford one.

I wonder how safe this is? If you market hard materials etc, doesn't that mean that the crumble zones are tougher to design? Cars today are designed to break in a predictable way and they need weak points. I would like to see crash test videos.

This is total genius without the politics. You are getting a product that is produced without compromise

I havent even watched the video, but working in the auto manufacturing industry, any new tech is hard to manufacture, in general manufacturing is hard, you got quality control, training, uncertainty in suppliers, sometimes they go out of business or back out of the project, you got the unkowns that comes with new manufacturing. Theres 1000s of more i could include..

Nice to see someone that has the balls to attack this design. Absolutely amazing. Cant wait to drive one. Once they perfect this product they will be able to do anything.

If you get a scratch on body panels (or is it totally scratch resistant?), do you polish it away?

For any company to have the guts to break the mould and do something revolutionary they need a visionary leader who is also a hands-on engineer. And very few companies have been that fortunate

"Why the Tesla Cybertruck would be so hard for our advertisers to manufacture"

How much would it cost to insure this truck? And how much would it cost if you got into an accident with it ??

Increased Costs, decrease Range, still no Self Driving, hard to fix panels, no crumple zones, sides too high to sideload

tesla has this. if any company could do this, its tesla. they have the brains and the guts to make it happen.

innovation = making things more difficult to manufacture

I appreciate and support innovation. There’s no comfort in the development zone and there’s no development in the comfort zone.

This is the most balanced Tesla report I’ve seen from CNBC

That is what makes Elon and Tesla special. They won't give up.

If anyone can pull off the impossible, it's the Tesla team. Tesla has THE TOP engineers working on all of this. As a current Tesla owner and having an early reservation for Cybertruck, I can say that this is the greatest time to be alive. To have this type of technology at a somewhat affordable price is amazing. Go Tesla!

The CT is likely easy to make once Tesla gets past the challenges of tooling and refining the production line for mass production. Always keep in mind that Tesla makes the machine that makes the machine. That is what is hard.

WOW! CNBS finally don't sound biased over Tesla.

“Finally the future will look like the future.” What a powerful quote that speaks to everything we do ourselves. Become the future you want to see.

The only argument id agree with is that successfully ramping all the new technologies simultaneously will be hard but then again that's exactly Tesla's whole existence , that's all it's been doing successfully. Since I can't agree with anything else, I'll just be leaving a like for putting in Sawyer Merritt really really much much actual news and shoving no narrative down our throats

Thirty years ago I was getting out of a DeLorean at a local car show and a little girl tugged on her dads sleeve and said "That car's from the future".

I wonder how is that steel absorb shock in accidents and how the vehicle reacts to comapred to convential cars

Yes, it’s ugly as hell. I can’t wait to get mine😁

The Cybertruck technology is as far ahead of the competition as are the SpaceX rockets

I could never afford one of these, and there's no charging infrastructure within 20 miles of me...but I'd love to have one. I think it looks neat.

Tesla previous claimed not going to 800 volt because of the market wasn't ready for mass production. Meanwhile the Cybertruck also has mass market challanges with steer-by-wire, 48 volt architecture, ethernet-loop and their own battery cells. These are the challenges Elon Musk was talking about, not just it's stainless steel exoskelton.

You know what, when I heard his rocket was going to land on the ocean. I thought how crazy can you be - and this was AFTER he led me to believe he can make the impossibles possible.

the tech for this is amazing. 48V, steer by wire, close to bullet proof, if there is a crash - I'd rather be inside that truck... looks expensive UNTIL you start getting something similar cost with Ford, Rivian and I will get way more compared to others

This thing is bold and that is GREAT!!! Give it a little time, they will perfect it. There is room for all types of propulsion systems, gas, electric, etc. I haven’t driven one but seen it at Teslas Upland CA Center. It is amazing in person.

Every time I watch the two rocket boosters land I am reminded of Peter Thiels advice... Don't underestimate Elon.

Mass production is very difficult especially with new innovation. Cybertruck with its cold formed stainless exoskeleton, 48v low voltage, 800v high volt system, drive by wire, 4680 tabless DRY CELL battery, smaller/lighter battery vs competitive, etc. Tesla offers the fastest production lines. Dry cell battery allow even less machines as no toxic black slurry/baking and mixing step. Big 3 sales mainly big trucks and suvs vs Tesla mainly sedans and small model Y suv. Cybertruck is a small niche for Tesla where they can test the newest future tech especially batteries. Tesla is an energy company besides motor where car batteries made grid storage batteries competitive. Tesla diversified batteries with 18650, 2170, 4680, and LFP( lithium IRON) Tesla’s production lines as Henry Fords 2.0 version. Tesla designs own software, chips, and hardware. Space X metals for car. SOTA and FOTA OTA with DOJO computer. Huge buildings full of full sell driving servers. Tesla building larger supercharger stations to charge trucks larger battery faster. All the above make the Cybertruck expensive to build. Plus Tesla is a new car company starting from scratch. Made in America. Finally USA is leading vs European auto industry. 1970 oil embargo Japanese fuel sippers vs Detroit muscle cars. History repeats itself but this time EV’s vs gas cars. China is ahead but USA narrowing the gap. Stellantis bought shares Chinese EV company to rebadge EV’s to sell in Europe. China and Europe ahead USA solar, EV’s working on climate change.

Do you think it's easy to create a design hybird of a Delorian and Pontiac Aztec?

2:36 Dude with that Frankenstein head lol

This is the coolest truck ever made ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Can’t wait! Pre-ordered mine the night of the unveiling.

A Belgian company called Aperam makes the steel chassis of the Cybertruck. Apparently Tesla couldn't find any American company that could meet Tesla's needs when it comes to rust resistance and strength. :) I knew Aperam was a company that was very skilled in this area but I didn't realise they were this good because it does seem super difficult.

The looks may not be the best but it's understandable given the materials they are using. It's probably worth it though, a stainless steel shell is a nice feature

How much extra does it cost to get a cyber truck that makes it past five minutes without the red screen of death? Also is a little bit of adhesive to hold down the gas pedal extra or do I just hot glue it on myself?

Can't wait to get my cybertruck!

I just love they had the balls to do it.. I LOVE the upgraded stainless steel technology aspect. Its looks sharp..

I always hear about the uniqueness of the cyber truck (electric truck) but I hardly ever hear about tow capacity, bed size etc.

I wonder if any steel casting techniques that were learned on starship were used on cyber truck or vise versa.

The fact that its small arms bulletproof is enough for many people to buy

The looks is growing on me. The performance is amazing

Somebody said that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

Okay so crazy thing, I actually talked with someone from the Tesla gigafactory. He's a software engineer. Anyhow, a couple of things to note. According to him, everything is pretty cluttered and disorganized. Because you know, they're having to do some irregular things. It’s also worth noting the weird speed limits on the campus. Like, 24? Why not 25?! And to top it off, he said he wouldn't get a Cybertruck, simply because its not his style. Which says a lot considering I met him through Lyft. And when I dropped him off, I had no idea where to drop him off. Supposedly there's supposed to be a tent where they were supposed to meet, in a parking lot. All that was there was a bus stop from the Soviet Union. Like, I know there's a lot of kooky stuff going on, but you'd think telling a software engineer where to go so he's not wandering like a goober would be solved.

With adjusted inflation i think the price is as expected.

I love how everyone goes to the things they can see, but nearly always it’s the things you can’t see that are the differentiators and the hardest problems

Remember that feeling of staring at charts like hieroglyphics? Those "buy high, sell low" nightmares still haunt me.🤣🤣

I do paintless dent repair. It's interesting how dents on the CT will be fixed. Body shops will have a nightmare. 😮

Incredible engineering and an impractical product (from a pickup truck perspective)

This truck is what you get when your company is known for working their engineers 80hrs a week and is still the number one dream job for graduating engineering students. And your other company is number two.

We as mankind need to keep this Bro's DNA. Maybe in the next 10 years, we can use this DNA to clone another Elon Musk. He's so important to mankind's tech advancement.

This is the first time they build a pickup truck. More, despite doing many innovations, there is a lot of room for future innovations. A lot more. This current Cybertruck design could be completely different from one made in 2 years.

I can’t wait until I get one😩

Only down side is how Musk clamed that his truck "will replace the F150". Which is the woking mens truck, so how did he go from $40k to $60k plus taxes. 😅 After all of these years the cybertruck is a rich person's rich toy and nothing else.

Have any been sold? I’ve never seen one on the road.

Model X volumes? This baby's gonna sell like crazy!

It's indeed amazing that they got it out of factory, time will tell how it would do and especially how it would deal with repairs and overall costs.
