There are currently a handful of electric trucks for purchase in the U.S. market: the Tesla Cybertruck, Ford F-150 Lightning, Rivian R1T and General Motors' GMC Hummer EV, GMC Sierra Denali and Chevrolet Silverado. The GMC Hummer and Rivian also have SUV versions, which feature similar functions as their pickup counterparts but in different forms. The SUV version is smaller and more manageable to drive than the pickup truck version. When the F-150 Lightning hit the market, it was the first "mainstream" electric truck.

One is to fix problems with trim pieces, which can loosen and fall off the trunk, and the other is to address faulty motor controllers in the front windshield wipers. The report said a "non-functioning windshield wiper may reduce visibility in certain operating conditions, which may increase the risk of a collision."

The recall disclosures for the windshield wiper issue said that from Nov. 13, 2023, to Jun.

CNN —The first production Tesla Cybertruck is expected to be delivered today – finally – four years after it was first unveiled. Stellantis’s Ram 1500 Rev electric truck will also go into production in late 2024. The Cybertruck is less than 19 feet long, according to Tesla, which is slightly shorter than other full-size trucks. Ample functional front space has been a big selling point for the Ford truck, in particular. That truck is claimed to provide up to 14,000 pounds of towing, the same figure Tesla originally claimed at the Cybertruck’s unveiling.

The document also reveals that the Cybertruck, like other electric trucks, will be heavy. In Tesla vehicles, as in most electric vehicles, all-wheel-drive is created by having one or two motors driving the front wheels and one or two driving the back wheels. Because of their heavy battery packs, electric trucks tend to weigh more than gas-powered trucks, adding as much as 2,000 pounds to their GVWR. When Tesla first unveiled the Cybertruck in late 2019, no other automakers offered electric trucks on the market. Various automakers have recently had to offered discounts on their electric vehicles to help clear backlogs of unsold EVs on dealer lots.

REUTERS/Rebecca Cook/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsSAN FRANCISCO, Oct 2 (Reuters) - Electric-vehicle maker Rivian Automotive (RIVN.O) on Monday reported third-quarter deliveries above analysts' estimates, as it ramped up production to meet a sustained demand for its pickup trucks and sport-utility vehicles (SUVs). Rivian, which makes R1T pickup trucks and R1S SUVs, delivered 15,564 vehicles in the quarter ended Sept. 30, compared with Visible Alpha estimates of 14,740 vehicles and up 23% from the second quarter. It produced 16,304 vehicles at its facility in Normal, Illinois, up from 13,992 in the second quarter. That means Rivian has to make just more than 12,300 vehicles in the current quarter to hit its full-year target.

Tesla Cybertruck orderers are anxiously awaiting their vehicles. Between its stainless steel panels, interesting proportions, and other quirks, the design of the Cybertruck has industry experts scratching their heads. It goes to show that Cybertruck buyers still don't exactly know what they're getting into, with such little spec information available and uncertainty about pricing and delivery timelines. Regardless, it's not unusual for today's Cybertruck images to differ slightly from previously released photos. Walter Isaacson, who's working on a new biography of Elon Musk, recently posted images that appear to show early Cybertruck designs.
