It comes with six seats and features armoured glass and ultra-strong panels that are made of the same alloys found on spacecraft. Production of the tri-motor variant of the cybertruck is expected to begin in late 2022, Tesla said.

Earlier Musk's net worth reportedly plummeted 6 percent, bringing it down by $768 million in a single day after a metal ball crashed down the unbreakable glass of his Cybertruck during its launch event.

At "Cybertruck" unveiling, Musk asked the company's lead designer, Franz von Holzhausen, to demonstrate the strength of the "Armor Glass" by throwing a solid metal, baseball-sized ball at the window, but surprisingly the glass broke when the ball was overarmed into it.
