Elon Musk Claims It Would Be 'Very Difficult' To Get Tesla Cybertruck Approved For Sale In China

The Tesla Cybertruck is finally here in all its Joe Rogan bro glory. They keep getting stuck in the snow and don’t have anywhere near the range that was originally promised, but if you’ve got $120,000 to burn, you can let the world know that no amount of racism will stop you from giving Elon Musk your money. Unless you live in China, apparently. As it turns out, China probably won’t be getting the Cybertruck at all, even as production scales up.

This news comes after a Chinese Tesla fan (incidentally, the same guy who shared the video of a guy who added a physical control panel to his Model Y that upset a lot of touchscreen purists) posted about his belief that Tesla would bring the Cybertruck to China for display, claiming, “It would go viral on Chinese social media.” Musk replied saying, “Getting Cybertruck road legal in China would be very difficult, but we could ship some prototypes over for display.”
