Melburnians, get ready to see the Tesla Cybertruck electric pick-up in your city soon! The Cybertruck has been making its way around Australia, with stops in Sydney and Canberra already completed. Now, it is set to be displayed in Melbourne, with a recent sighting in the suburb of Mulgrave.
Although the Cybertruck is making its way around the country, it is not expected to be available for sale in Australia anytime soon. Tesla CEO Elon Musk has stated that the company is not yet ready for a global export program beyond North America for the Cybertruck. This is due to the need for design changes to meet European and Chinese standards, which will take time to implement.
While there is a possibility of a version of the Cybertruck being developed for European markets, it is uncertain whether it will be manufactured in right-hand drive. Despite sharing similar motor-vehicle regulations with Australia, the production of a right-hand drive Cybertruck is still up in the air.
The exact dates for the Cybertruck displays in Melbourne have not been announced yet. However, its presence in Mulgrave indicates that a showcase is imminent, possibly before moving to other Tesla showrooms in locations like Richmond. The Cybertruck is also expected to make its way to Queensland and New Zealand in the near future.
