Tesla to showcase Cybertruck in the UAE

Tesla is bringing its Cybertruck to select locations and events across the UAE in the coming weeks, as part of its Cyber Odyssey event.

Starting this week and until July 7th, Cybertruck will be displayed in different locations in the UAE.

The public will be able to meet this “already iconic vehicle and learn more about its unique specs, features and innovative engineering,” Tesla said in a statement.

In the UAE, Cybertruck will make its first appearance in Jubail Mangrove Park in Abu Dhabi from May 10th to 11th.

Back in 2019, Elon Musk famously unveiled the Cybertruck in one of the biggest marketing failures in history.

He accidentally smashed a window of the car, while trying to showcase it’s ‘bulletproof’ armoured glass features.

Five years on, and multiple delays, and a post on Tesla’s Europe and Middle East X account stated today that the Cybertruck would be “touring Europe and the Middle East for the next 2 months”.

U.S deliveries

It’s unsure when the Cybertruck will go on sale in the UAE.

Manufactured in Tesla’s Giga factory in Austin, Texas, customers in the U.S started to get deliveries in early December 2023.

Tesla will be focusing on North America, the main volume market for pick-up trucks.

The Cybertruck is currently not available in Europe and Middle East, and Tesla have not yet announced a specific timing for starting deliveries outside of North America.
