tesla had previously confirmed that ‘model Y’, a compact crossover based on the ‘model 3’ platform, would be its priority once ‘model 3’ production is increased. it was surprising for the manufacturer to unveil the ‘roadster’ supercar as that vehicle was originally expected to supersede ‘model Y’, which hasn’t been unveiled yet. at the event, musk also revealed the first image of the proposed electric pick up truck. according to the CEO, it is a smaller version of tesla ‘semi’, and ‘a pick up truck that can carry a pick up truck’.

 

musk also confirms that he has, ‘the core design / engineering elements’ in his mind and wants to bring it to market after ‘model Y’.
