Tesla Engineer Denies Prioritizing 'Affluent' Cybertruck Owners For Lightbar Installation
Morrill, however, said that the company is ramping up production of the light bar which is reaching customers in the order of production of their vehicles.Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) is not prioritizing the "affluent" owners of the higher-end variant of the Cybertruck over others for installation of the off-road light bar, company engineer Wes Morrill said on Tuesday following allegations otherwise.
特斯拉公司（納斯達克股票代碼:TSLA）工程師韋斯·莫里爾（Wes Morrill）週二表示，對於安裝越野燈條，公司不會優先安裝Cybertruck高端版本的「富裕」車主，以回應此前的指控。
What Happened: An X user on Tuesday noted that he has not received the lightbar while popular individuals like car enthusiast and YouTuber Kyle Conner have.
事件經過：週二，一位X用戶指出他尚未收到燈條，而像汽車愛好者和YouTuber Kyle Conner等熱門人士已經收到了。
"Seems like Tesla is prioritizing affluent community members' installs over the general public's. This is rather upsetting, our money is just as green as theirs...," the individual wrote to Tesla executives Wes Morrill and Lars Moravy.
「看起來特斯拉正在優先安裝富裕社區成員的設備，而不是一般公衆的。這令人沮喪，我們的錢和他們的一樣是綠色的...」，這位個人寫信給特斯拉高管韋斯·莫里爾（Wes Morrill）和拉斯·莫拉維（Lars Moravy）。
Morrill, however, said that the company is ramping up production of the light bar which is reaching customers in the order of production of their vehicles.
但莫里爾表示，公司正在加快越野燈條的生產，按照車輛的生產順序發放給客戶。
"They are trying to opportunistically group installs by service center for efficiency so some installs will happen out of order," Morrill said, denying the allegations of unfair prioritization for some drivers.
「他們正試圖根據服務中心的效率來機會性地分組安裝，因此一些安裝會出現順序上的變化，」莫里爾表示，否認了對某些駕駛員不公平優先安裝的指控。
"For what it's worth Kyle has a 0001xx vin," he added, implying that the YouTuber took delivery of the Cybertruck early.
「說到Kyle已經擁有0001xx vin，」他補充道，暗示這位YouTuber提前收到了Cybertruck。
Team is ramping up light bar production and should be reaching out in roughly production order. They are trying to opportunistically group installs by service center for efficiency so some installs will happen out of order. For what it's worth Kyle has a 0001xx vin

Why It Matters: The Cybertruck Lightbar is an accessory that can be mounted on top of the truck to increase visibility when driving off-road. While all Foundation Series Cyberbeast variant owners are eligible to receive the lightbar, customers have only begun receiving it.
爲什麼重要: Cybertruck Lightbar是一種配件，可安裝在卡車頂部，以提高越野行駛時的能見度。雖然所有基礎系列Cyberbeast變種車主都有資格獲得燈條，但客戶僅開始收到。
Tesla started delivering the first Cybertrucks to customers in the U.S. in late November 2023. The vehicle starts at nearly $100,000 for the limited-edition Foundation series Cybertruck and at about $80,000 for the non-foundation series.
特斯拉於2023年11月底開始向美國客戶交付首批Cybertrucks。限量版Foundation系列Cybertruck起價近10萬美元，非Foundation系列起價約8萬美元。
According to data from automotive research company Kelley Blue Book, Tesla sold 16,692 Cybertrucks in the third quarter, making it the third best-selling electric vehicle in the U.S. behind Tesla's Model Y SUV and Model 3 sedan.
根據汽車研究公司凱利藍皮書的數據顯示，特斯拉在第三季度銷售了16,692輛Cybertrucks，使其成爲美國第三暢銷的電動車型，僅次於特斯拉的Model Y SUV和Model 3轎車。
