Isaacson wrote that Tesla's decision to build the Cybertruck using stainless steel had a major influence on the final design. "The use of stainless steel opened up new possibilities for the look of the truck," he said."Stainless steel would favor straight planes and sharp angles. That allowed — and in some ways forced — the design team to explore ideas that were more futuristic, edgier, and even jarring." This largely explains why many of the trucks sketched by the design team are characterized by angular surfaces and a silver finish.
Cybertruck deliveries are tentatively scheduled to start in the third quarter of 2023 after a long string of delays.
