The reservations book for the 1,200 Edition 1 trucks that will be built was filled within 10 minutes of it opening in December 2020 and orders placed today on one of the regular trims likely won't be filled until 2024. The Edition 1 features a tri-motor drivetrain with a combined 1,000 horsepower and can accelerate to 60 mph in three seconds, despite being designed for extreme off-roading.
