The Tesla CEO posted a picture on his social media handle, in which the electric pickup truck and himself are seen sitting behind the steering wheel of the EV. It has been claimed that the production-spec Tesla Cybertruck looks similar to the previous prototype, which was spotted a few days ago. The Cybertruck gets sleek LED headlamps and beefy tires surrounded by big black wheels while the side profile of the EV looks clean without any creases. It gets delta-shaped wing mirrors, which ensures that the production-spec model will come with side mirrors.
