Dubai police will use the CyberTruck as a new patrol car A render of the customized Cybertruck was posted on Twitter
UPDATE 11/29/2019: The poor figure during the presentation doesn't seem to have stopped Tesla's CyberTruck. Two days ago, the number of pre-orders for the vehicle reached a quarter of a million. Among the buyers there is also the Dubai Police who will include it in its endowment from 2020 and announced it on its official Twitter channel. Dubai police are used to using luxury patrol cars: previous models included the Porsche 918, Lamborghini Aventador and Bugatti Veyron. In an interview with the newspaper Arabian Business, Major General Abdullah Khalifa Al Marri revealed that the Cybertruck will be used in more touristy areas such as the Burj Khalifa, La Mer, Jumeirah Beach Residence, and Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Boulevard.
During the presentation, Musk announced that production of the car would begin in 2021. It’s unclear, therefore, why the date announced by the Twitter post is 2020. It could be assumed that the Emirati government has entered into an agreement with the billionaire for early production. But there's no definite news yet.
Musk's project is ambitious, but the presentation of the Tesla Cybertruck, which some people have judged to be very hasty with its half-hour duration, has left questions to be clarified: Why did the unbreakable glass break? Why weren't the interiors shown? How will the infrastructure problem be solved? Why were the production details so vague? Tesla and Musk will have to answer to all those questions. At the moment, the Tesla Cybertruck is available in pre-order with the deposit of only 100 euros. For all the other issues that remain open, we will have to wait two years.
