Tesla’s Cybertruck range extender could help combat that, although the fact that the company didn’t initially disclose that it would be necessary feels somewhat misleading. It certainly doesn’t help that one of Tesla’s chief rivals appears to have a patent on the same technology. This could pose more problems, especially if Rivian decides to file a lawsuit against the large EV producer.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Elon Musk has stated that the Cybertruck range extender is only “for very long trips or towing heavy things up mountains.” That makes sense in theory, as mountain travel might be one of the only things the large vehicle really makes sense for. However, that doesn’t change the fact that it could easily be infringing on Rivian’s technology, as the two devices sound highly similar. After taking a closer look, <em>Electrek</em> reported:</p><blockquote><p><em>“The obvious potential differences we can find are if the range extender doesn’t have integrated cooling, which is unlikely, or if the range extender isn’t removable, which doesn’t seem to jive with the statement that it is only for long trips or with the marketing showing it as an optional add-on (if that were the case, why not just offer different battery sizes?).”</em></p></blockquote><p>Besides clarifying the range extender’s purpose, Musk hasn’t provided much detail on it, nor has he commented on Rivian’s patent. It has yet to be established if Tesla’s design is different enough from Rivian’s to avoid a patent lawsuit. But if the EV startup does decide to take legal action against Tesla, it may make it even harder to keep up with Cybertruck deliveries.
