Tesla Cybertruck market encounters roadblocks: frequent Recalls, high-end range reduction
AshleyAug 14, 2024, 10:13 AM
The market performance of Tesla's electric pickup Cybertruck has attracted widespread attention. Recently, the Tesla official website shows that the entry-level Cybertruck priced at $61,000 has stopped accepting orders, while the higher-priced $100,000 version can be ordered immediately and delivered as early as this month. This adjustment has led to speculation within the industry that the demand for Cybertruck may be less than Tesla's expectations.
Since its launch, Cybertruck has been in the spotlight. Tesla's CEO Musk ambitiously planned to produce 200,000 units a year. However, as the vehicle delivery approaching, some problems gradually surfaced. Firstly, the cruising range of the high-end Cybertruck is lower than the initial promotion, causing some consumers to favor the lower-priced entry-level models. Secondly, this year Tesla has announced multiple recalls of the Cybertruck, it involves issues such as acceleration out-of-control and windshield wiper malfunctions, which further affected consumer confidence.
A series of market feedbacks indicate that the market performance of Cybertruck is not as optimistic as expected. Tesla needs to carefully examine market demand and adjust production strategies to ensure that Cybertruck can stand firm in the fiercely competitive electric pickup market.

Perodua Traz VS Ativa, which one is more worth buying?
Traz, as a newly launched mid-sized SUV, offers more spacious room and mainstream power compared to small SUVs, but its pricing appears slightly higher than that of Ativa. Ativa, on the other hand, is Perodua's long-time best-selling small SUV with more affordable pricing and a balanced combination of power and tech features.

After the update, the Bezza will no longer be just a low-cost alternative but a core model in the Perodua system with greater market competitiveness and brand premium potential. The upgrade of the Myvi is not to be unconventional but to strengthen the brand and market, ensuring that the Myvi continues to maintain its irreplaceable position in the new round of product competition.
Perodua Traz VS Toyota Yaris Cross, where does the Traz fall short?
Before the official launch of the Perodua Traz, market expectations were actually very high because it shares the same DNGA platform as the Toyota Yaris Cross. However, sharing the same platform does not equate to the same experience, and the Traz's final performance has indeed been disappointing. Perhaps it is precisely because of the delayed launch that it has almost no competitiveness in the current competitive environment.
Will the Toyota Yaris Cross come to Malaysia? If it comes, how much will it sell for?
The launch of Perodua Traz indicates that the market size of small SUVs in Malaysia has been expanding in recent years. However, the question naturally shifts back to Toyota. As a brand with the most comprehensive product line and a strong foundation in both the SUV and hybrid sectors, will Toyota choose the Yaris Cross to participate in this small SUV competition?
Why is the Toyota Sienna so popular with so many people?
In Malaysia, most family MPVs choose Toyota Alphard, Vellfire, or Kia Carnival. These models each have their advantages in luxury, space, or brand influence, but models that truly balance large space, multifunctional practicality, fuel efficiency, and reliability are rarely seen.
