New Tesla models launch in 2023 and preparing a surprise for 2024.
Tesla’s range currently has four models: the compact Model 3 sedan and its SUV derivative, the Model Y, and the two large Model S (sedan) and Model X (SUV), which have just returned to the European catalog of the Californian brand. But while Elon Musk’s manufacturer continues to grow in sales worldwide, Tesla is preparing to market other critical new products. And three of these essential novelties are due to arrive in 2023 after many delays.
The First of the 3 Tesla models is Cybertruck
The first of these novelties will be the Cybertruck, this famous pick-up with an utterly crazy design that will finally be found in concessions in its final version. Unveiled for the first time in 2019, the Cybertruck has not yet specified its price list. Above all, we still do not know if it will come to Europe (recent rumors in the hallway evoked a possible incompatibility with the safety standards of our market ).

The second of the 3 Tesla models is Tesla Roadster
The second Tesla launched in 2023 will be the Roadster, a 2+2 sports car that shares the same first model name ever sold by the brand.
Tesla Roadster was presented as a prototype in 2017, the second-generation Tesla Roadster was initially scheduled to be available in 2020. However, this program, which is not a priority for Tesla, has accumulated delays, resulting in its launch being further postponed. And it shouldn’t hit stores until 2023. Still, it’s a long wait for fans and even longer for people who paid $50,000 to reserve a model. …
Delays in the supply chain
“2021 has been the year of super crazy supply chain shortages, so it wouldn’t matter if we had 17 new products, as none would ship. Assuming 2022 is not mega drama, the new Roadster should ship in 2023.” Elon Musk said in a tweet posted on September 1.
As a reminder, the Tesla Roadster is not a cheap model; it will be sold for $200,000 when it is launched. However, Musk promises exceptional performance with a top speed that reaches 400 km / h, 0-100 km in 1.9 seconds, and even 1.1 seconds via a thruster (optional). This model will also be equipped with a new generation of batteries with a capacity of 200 kWh and a range of around 1,000 kilometers.

The last of the 3 Tesla models is Tesla Semi (The truck and even an autonomous robotaxi)
The third Tesla novelty of 2023 will not interest individuals: it will indeed be the big Semi truck.
Since 2017, Tesla has been planning the marketing of Semi, a 100% electric semi-trailer. But it must be said that the group has not yet achieved this objective so far, given that the launch has been postponed many times, as is the case for 2023, which looks rather good.

In November of 2017, Tesla announced with great fanfare that Semi, it’s 100% electric semi-trailer, was born and should be on the road from 2019, which should be its first year on the market, which was not the case since the group postponed the operation several times by agreeing to a new deadline.
In that sense, this American giant has given itself until 2023 to achieve this. Moreover, the brand believes this time will be the right one, mainly considering reservations closed barely three months later.
Tesla Semi marketing could be in 2023
As mentioned above, 2019 was supposed to be the first year of Semi’s commercialization, as announced by Elon Musk in November of 2017. But since the group has just agreed on a new date for 2023, needless to say, this deadline has been postponed by As much as in recent years; the group has made sure not to make too many waves on the subject.
At least until last May, when the brand announced the opening of a pre-booking process with which interested customers can count on a mechanism reminiscent of leasing to seize their chance to become the owner of this model.
The fact is that initially, they will only have to pay $5,000 to fit into the list of lucky ones. An amount repayable within ten days, according to the company specifying that from there, the second payment of 15,000 dollars is planned on a total cost evolving between 150,000 and 180,000 dollars, depending on the range. A system crowned with success according to the company specifying that the operation has already been closed since mid-August.
Thus, everything suggests that this time, Tesla is closer to its goal, even if the situation presents a similar case in the period after the 2017 announcement. The one during which around twenty companies have already passed orders except for list Loblaw, Pepsi or even Walmart, and Anheuser-Busch.
The rumor also mentions a possible utility van in 2024, without counting on the affordable compact car project, which could quickly return to the market—front of the stage.
