Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk tweeted out that date Wednesday morning for when the company plans to show off what he has called on many occasions the “cybertruck.”

Musk, and Tesla, have been somewhat coy about what the truck will look like. The company has hinted about the truck for months, and in March, Musk tweeted out what could only be called the barest of conceptual photos of the vehicle, which he included along with a mention of the sci-fi classic film “Blade Runner”.
In October, Musk stoked enthusiasm for the so-called “cybertruck” when he tweeted that it was “closer to an armored personnel carrier of the future” than any other vehicle on the road.
Tesla didn’t immediately respond to a request for further comment about its plans for the its truck’s debut.
