Tesla Model Y versus the competition - wait, who's that? The Tesla Model Y has started deliveries, but more EV SUVs and crossovers are coming. Like the Audi e-Tron Sportback and Q4 e-Tron.

Reuter's broke the news that Tesla was switching to CATL's prismatic LFP battery from their standard cylindrical NCA battery.

In mid-January there was a Tesla story that broke around Nassim Taleb's $4,333 accidental Tesla Upgrade. Basically, the Tesla app's design patterns allowed him to butt-dial the upgrade.

With the Tesla Pickup Truck announcement getting closer, let's take a look at the possible specs, looks, and price. And how will it compare to the other EV trucks coming to market, like the Rivian R1T, Bollinger B1 and B2, and the Ford F150 electric truck.
