Tesla's much-awaited Cybertruck recently completed tough winter testing in New Zealand, drawing interest from electric car enthusiasts all around the globe. The testing included thrilling drifting on slippery surfaces and gauging how well the vehicle's suspension performed in the snow.
On Twitter, Tesla posted thrilling videos of the Cybertruck's winter testing, calling it "a tiny drift session." Online observers were amazed by the vehicle's apparent steer-by-wire capabilities, traction control, and superb handling as they avidly commented on the video online, according to Elektrek.

"I wonder if they're testing the steer by wire / 4ws traction control in slick areas," Greggertruck stated. "Dopeness."
Another user named Lu Adams reacted to the video, saying: "Not a fun drift session. I think they're testing whether it can be brought back under control from a skid. The question is - are they doing it with the driver or the computer? Damn awesome handling in these videos."
"Geeks in the back on their laptops must be going crazy," tweeted user Tyrone mcgillick.
One of the last steps before the Tesla Cybertruck enters full-scale manufacturing is the recent discovery of a truck prototype in New Zealand's winter testing grounds.
The electric pickup truck demonstrated exceptional driving qualities throughout the winter testing, including drifting maneuvers in snowy conditions. The Cybertruck's remarkable performance and stability in diverse situations are anticipated to be aided by its outstanding rear-steering capabilities and active suspension technology.
Almost 1.5 million reservation holders anticipate the arrival of the Tesla Cybertruck. Thus, the timing and volume of the initial deliveries have been carefully watched. Tesla has formally declared a scheduled delivery event for "around the end of Q3," which might indicate a late-September 2023 debut.
Recent rumors state that Tesla has informed suppliers to be ready for Cybertruck release candidates by the end of August, with production slated to start in early October, which is consistent with several production progress indicators for Tesla, such as pictures of Cybertruck production at the Gigafactory in Texas.
Texas Gigafactory to Focus on Cybertruck Manufacturing
According to reports, Tesla intends to temporarily stop the Model Y assembly line in early July to make the necessary improvements. Several employees from the factory that produces electric vehicles have been moved to the Cybertruck assembly lines, according to Teslarati.
This tactical reallocation intends to complete calibration and testing, paving the way for the Tesla Cybertruck to go into production, which is anticipated between July and August.
The electric car industry is enthralled by Tesla's Gigafactories, which include the magnificent Gigafactory in Texas. Drone operators and devoted observers watch these sites carefully, recording changes as Tesla is ready to overhaul the industry with its cutting-edge automobiles.
Cybertruck Light Bar Sparks Buzz
Recently, a TikTok user caught a Tesla Cybertruck outside the Fremont factory on camera, who noticed a noticeable addition: a light bar put on the back tailgate. Previously, enthusiasts and others who had reservations expressed worries and grievances about this function, per Inside EVs.
Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, addressed the situation on Twitter and assured fans that a red light bar will be included in the Cybertruck's production model.
It is becoming increasingly apparent that the much-awaited vehicle debut is getting closer as more Cybertruck prototypes are seen on public roads and in conjunction with factory film displaying car casting manufacturing.
