It’s a big no, unfortunately.”If someone wants one, they’ll only be able to look at it on their drive and won’t be able to take it for a spin.”Clark added: “In the US the roads are a lot wider and the cars are much bigger. Take a Cadillac Escalade, for example. The bonnet is twice the size of a Range Rover’s.”We do a lot of American cars, a lot of Escalades. A lot of footballers who come over from different countries still want left-hand drive motors, which we import over.Richard Clark is the go-to car salesman for the Premier League eliteJustin Bieber is one of many US celebrities who own a Tesla Cybertruck”Cybertrucks, though, are a non-starter over here.”In America, Cybertrucks have taken off with the NFL’s biggest stars.Some, including New York Giants linebacker Isiah Simmons, have customised their cars with incredible wraps,While ex-Detroit Lions tight end Eric Ebron’s glows in the dark.And it’s not just sports stars who are smitten with Tesla Cybertrucks.Music stars including Justin Bieber, Beyonce, Katy Perry, Pharrell Williams and Lady Gaga are all said to have one in their garage.Serena Williams was also spotted with her husband Alexis Ohanian behind the wheel of a flashy Tesla Cybertruck leaving a party in Miami.Back in August, Vladimir Putin’s attack dog Ramzan Kadyrov flaunted a new Tesla Cybertruck which he claims to have received from Elon Musk.The Chechen warlord modified his, attaching a massive machine gun to the back and pledged to send it to the frontline in Ukraine.TESLA CYBERTRUCK SPECThe Tesla cybertruck has become the must-have mode of transport for A-listers and sports stars.
