Musk said that the long-awaited Cybertruck (announced in 2019) will also be unveiled soon, though he did not give further details.
Tesla reported $16.93 billion in revenue in Q2 and automotive made $14.6 billion of the total sales.
In an earnings call, Musk said that Tesla's new factory outside of Berlin crossed 1,000 cars per week in June.

Tesla is the leader in the BEV segment, with a strong performance from its Model Y and Model 3 accounting for 565,000 of vehicles sold during H1 2022, giving it a market share of 14 per cent.
