(3)JUST FINISHED:Kim Kardashian shows off her curves and continues to plug controversial $60k Cybertruck – as the Tesla vehicle is plagued with safety problems..WHAT IS HAPPENING

Kim Kardashian showed off her toned curves in a skimpy ensemble as she continued to plug her controversial $60k Tesla Cybertruck – amid mounting problems with the vehicle line.

The reality star, 43, contrasted her icy blonde locks with a sequin-adorned black backless top which flashed her toned legs and pert posterior.

The star added height to her look with stiletto leggings in the ensemble – which again appeared to be Balenciaga.

Her newly-dyed tresses were styled in soft waves and she sported smoky eye make-up and nude lipstick.

Tesla and its famed CEO Elon Musk are facing major headaches in the US over not being able to supply Cybertrucks, with manufacturing delays compounded by having to issue a major safety recall over a design flaw with the accelerator pedal.

A major slump in the sales of electric vehicles worldwide has also caused Tesla to recently announce plans to sack more than 10 percent of its global staff, which is about 14,000 workers.

The Cybertruck’s heavy weight, large width and inflexible steel exoskeleton, which result in reduced crumple zones, pose safety concerns.

The Cybertruck was launched as a concept vehicle in 2019 in a blaze of publicity by Elon Musk who said its hardened sides were so tough they were bulletproof.

He also claimed the windows could withstand someone throwing a large metal ball bearing at them – but the glass shattered when he tried to demonstrate that.

Originally the company said Cybertrucks would be on the streets in 2021 but the first models were not delivered until late in 2023.

The mass recall of Cybertrucks in the US followed reports the accelerator pedal could become stuck when its cover slipped off, accelerating vehicles to top speeds within seconds.

Mr Musk insisted on X that ‘there were no injuries or accidents because of this. We are just being very cautious’.

However, he did not clarify when Cybertruck deliveries will restart, with many customers told ‘two weeks at best’ or nothing at all.

Hundreds of Cybertrucks have been spotted stacking up at the Tesla Gigafactory in Texas as customers wait for their deliveries.

Writing about the backlog and how it might affect Cybertrucks coming to Australia, Cars Guide journalist Richard Berry was pessimistic.

‘Unless another factory is used to produce the Cybertruck it could be at least eight years before it arrives here – and that’s using Elon Musk’s own production forecasts,’ he wrote.
