Tesla Cybertruck’s Dawn, Four Years in The making

At last, it’s happening! Tesla Cybertruck, first pledged by Elon Musk back in 2018, is officially starting its production march. It’s been a long wait, a four-year one, to be exact. But, as exhilarating as this dawn seems, it’s worth remembering that the Cybertruck is not the only commitment that Musk had promised by now. Let’s shed light on six other projects yet to see the light.

The Tesla Semi Conundrum

One of the promises that the ambitious entrepreneur made was on the Tesla Semi. First unveiled with great fanfare in 2017, with expected production starting by 2019. As of now, however, the Semi has still not wheeled into the production line. Worse still, no timeline as yet indicates when it will be available for commercial use.

Tesla Solar Roof : A Dream Yet to Shine

In 2016, we were introduced to the concept of the Tesla Solar Roof. It was an intriguing concept, promising green energy solutions for homeowners. Initial expectations were high, with the actual product projected to be up and running by 2017. As things stand now, the Solar Roof is yet to be released, as it stays lodged in the development stage.
Tesla Model Y – Still a Model on Paper?
An addition to the ‘promised but not yet delivered’ list, is the Tesla Model Y. Announced in 2018, it was expected to hit the production line by 2019. The vehicle, however, remains stuck in development limbo, with no defined timeline for production.

Awaited Arrival: The Tesla Pickup Truck

Elon Musk first disclosed his plans for the Tesla Pickup Truck in 2019, setting an ambitious target for its production by 2020. However, like the set of projects highlighted above, this one too has remained in the development pipelines, with no official timeline for its production.

The Pivotal Role of Blockchain Applications in Future Projects

Despite the delayed projects, Elon Musk’s vision for Tesla goes beyond electric vehicles. He realizes the potential of blockchain applications in various industries, advocating its use in multiple aspects of Tesla’s operations. Automated operations, logistics, manufacturing process optimization, and perhaps, tackling the unforeseen production delays; blockchain technology could just be the key.
Regardless of the prolonged timelines, it’s crucial to recognize Musk’s long-term ambition and commitment to transform transportation’s face. A journey that began with the Cybertruck has much potential to progress beyond thought, especially if it can leverage blockchain technology’s transformative nature. Only time will tell if these promises will materialize, but one thing is for sure – the future with Tesla promises to be electric.
