Is that a lot?
How does that compare to other vehicles that have been out the same amount of time?

Just for reference, Rivian has sold well over 20,0000 R1T pickup trucks since it went on sale a few years ago, and there are just 187 of those trucks for sale in the U.S. right now on Autotrader. That’s sort of high, but it’s a far more normal number for the Cybertruck’s chief competitor.
