Elon Musk has claimed that the new pick-up from Tesla will be unveiled in "two or three months"

Elon Musk, executive chairman of Tesla and SpaceX, has claimed that the much-anticipated Tesla pickup will be presented in the next two or three months. Will it coincide with the Frankfurt Motor Show, which takes place next September? We have known for quite some time that the pickup would be presented before the end of the year, but the recent tweet published by the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX gives a much clearer idea of when sales of its main rival could begin: the Rivian R1T.

In the post Musk published on Twitter, one can read: “We are close, but the magic is in the details. Maybe 2 to 3 months.” This information suggests that the electric carmaker is still putting the final touches on the show model.

Tesla has only released a single image in the form of a teaser of its pickup, but it did not really give us a good idea of what to expect from the vehicle’s exterior design. However, earlier statements by Elon Musk have suggested that the vehicle’s design will be drastically different from any other Tesla.

Those who have criticized the “cookie cutter” design of the manufacturer’s current models should be pleased, because they will be able to see something a little different.

The Tesla Pickup could arrive within three months at most

Last June, it was revealed that the Tesla pickup could cost less than $50,000 and would drive like a Porsche 911, both claims are very bold, but we understand the vehicle will have no fewer than six seats. It will have a towing capacity of up to 136.077 kg and a fully electric range of between 645 and 800 kilometers. This data would be possible thanks to a battery that could reach a capacity of 125 kWh, which the Tesla Model S platform and the Tesla Model X platform allow.

The new Tesla electric car, the Tesla Pickup, will mount two motors to give it all-wheel drive and towing capacity. In addition, it will feature cabinets and power outlets to suit all functions and tasks. All these features will be offered in a design different from what is known today. Elon Musk has said about the new electric pickup that “it has to be affordable. There will be more expensive versions, but it has to be possible to get a really cool pickup for $49,000 or less.” “It’s going to be like science fiction. It won’t be for everyone. Anyone who wants a pickup like those of the last 20 or 40 years won’t find it here.”

With the confirmation that General Motors is also developing an electric pickup, this segment of the market looks very exciting in the near future. The company’s own CEO has noted that the new electric car will have greater functionality and performance, “extraordinary” both on and off the road. This project is creating a lot of expectation in the United States.
