- Currently, the Tesla Cybertruck is only available in the US
- So prospective owners have no choice but to import the car

A devoted Tesla Cybertruck owner has airlifted his 6,600-pound Cybertruck all the way to Qatar.
This is quite a testament to the vehicle as the owner could’ve easily shipped the truck instead of airlifting it.
It should be noted that the Tesla Cybertruck is still not available in the Middle East and was most likely flown over from America.

Airlifting a Tesla Cybertruck to Qatar
Someone in Qatar clearly loves the Tesla Cybertruck so much that they are willing to pay the excess transportation fees.
Since Tesla hasn’t officially released the EV car anywhere in the world except for the US, it has become quite hard to get in other countries.
However, the EV car is technically not road-legal anywhere else in the world just yet.
Even Tesla says that the Cybertruck will likely not make it to Europe, since the regulations will never allow it.
However, if you have enough money, you can always import the car anywhere you like, really.
Cybertruck in the Middle East
The video shows the Cybertruck being strapped to a platform, and loaded into a cargo airplane.
It reportedly landed in Doha, the capital of Qatar.
The Cybertruck is most likely already roaming the streets of the capital or the sand dunes.
However, this is definitely not the first time we have seen the EV truck in the Middle East.
Just recently, a Saudi prince recently went viral for a photo with Cybertruck.
There are also some Cybertrucks in the UAE for exhibition purposes.
Speaking of the UAE, it seems the Cybertruck has already joined the Dubai police car fleet.
Dubai has one of the world’s flashiest police fleets out there, so it was only a matter of time before the EV truck was added to the fleet.
Considering how many Cybertrucks have been produced so far, it is quite a feat.
Hopefully, Tesla can get over the regulatory problems and release the EV truck in more countries.
