And with that investment, it has passed Daimler to become the second most valuable automaker in the world at USD 116.95 billion, surpassing Daimler’s USD 62.78 billion.

Tesla also unveiled the radical Cybertruck EV pickup on November 22, 2019 via a live event in Los Angeles. Highlights include a design that looks straight out of a Cyberpunk virtual world and a bulletproof body that can resist upto 9mm shells. It also boasts serious off-road and pickup capabilities with a 35-degree approach angle, 28-degree departure angle, and towing capacity of  up to 14,000 pounds (6,350kg).
