Tesla has revealed new details about the Cyberquad. It will be the safest ATV on the market and probably will be produced at Giga Texas.
The Cyberquad is a very interesting vehicle that attracts the attention of many. For now, we know that Tesla is planning to offer an electric ATV as an add-on to its new Cybertruck. The Cyberquad sits perfectly in the pickup bed, which also has a power outlet from which it can charge. Until recently, these were the only details that were available to the general public.
However, during the 2021 Annual Shareholders Meeting, Tesla CEO Elon Musk revealed some more fascinating details about its ATV. ATVs are known to be a dangerous form of vehicle. With a high center of gravity, they can easily rollover when cornering or when maneuvering at high speed. Nevertheless, all Tesla vehicles have always been associated with high safety, as they are the safest on the road.
With safety at its core, Tesla strives to design Cyberquad in such a way that it does not face the same challenges faced by other manufacturers' ATVs. As with its cars, the company solves the rollover problem with a low center of gravity. In the Cyberquad, the battery will be located at the bottom, adding extra stability and rollover protection. Special attention is also paid to the suspension, which should add additional safety to the ATV.
In addition, Musk also said that the Cyberquad is likely to be built at Giga Texas, which is a logical decision given that Cybertruck will be produced there, and it is easier to set up production lines for the new product in the new factory. Since the ATV will only be sold as an add-on to its pickup truck, Tesla has ample time to design it as the safest ever built.
