Tesla has just brought the Cybertruck at Gigafactory Berlin on Monday, marking the all-electric pickup’s first-ever arrival in Europe.
The Tesla Cybertruck’s sudden appearance in the region comes after the Musk-led company temporarily shut down the factory earlier this month due to a suspected arson attack.
Cybertruck makes a surprise European debut at Giga Berlin
Gigafactory Berlin welcomed the all-electric Cybertruck on Monday, as revealed by the photos and videos shared by several Tesla employees and fans on LinkedIn.
As you can observe from the photos, the Cybertruck stimulated a great interest among the Gigafactory workers and electric vehicle enthusiasts. People swamped around the electric pickup to check its exterior and interior design.
The Tesla Cybertruck’s popularity among European fans is unsurprising, considering its innovative technologies and cutting-edge stainless steel body.
Cybertruck’s global tour
It is worth noting that Tesla currently has no plans to launch the Cybertruck in the European market. Therefore, Cybertruck’s debut in Giga Berlin is indeed surprising.
Before Europe, Tesla also recently initiated the Cybertruck’s tour in China. Tesla simultaneously presented the electric pickup to various Chinese cities, including Shanghai, Beijing, Shenzhen, Chengdu, Nanjing, Hangzhou, Xi’an, and Chongqing.
