During an event called Tesla Cyberodyssey, the pick-up from the North American brand arrives in Portugal and will be on display at the two Tesla Centers, in Porto and Lisbon.

To see the Cybertruck live for the first time, just go to the Tesla Center in Porto, on May 11th. Afterwards, the pick-up travels to Lisbon, where it will be on display from the 15th to the 16th of May.

Taking into account that the Tesla Cybertruck does not meet European standards due to the shape of its body, commercialisation here is not in Tesla's plans.

Perhaps the reason it's not for sale, is because it's a hideous monstrosity, and nobody with working eyes would buy it, and people who can't see, are usually not allowed to drive?
Anywho, no EV for me. Thankfully, on top of having functioning eyes, I also possess a functioning brain.

I am glad this truck will not be for sale here in Portugal. It is primarily due to fascist supporting Elon Musk.

But electric vehicles are important for environmental reasons, at least for now. Hydrogen powered vehicles would be better. There are other emerging technologies also.
