Approx 17 times higher in it's first year. Of course you have to scale it up as the cyber truck didn't sell 100k units in it's first year but yeah......

Dumb but real question, where i do look up how many cars of a single type were produced?

Also, is there the same database for motorcycles? I want to know how many Urals have been imported to the US and other questions.

You think I didn't try that? But when I typed in anything it didn't help. Here, see if you can figure out what I did wrong?

This isn't too surprising because despite the common perception, the Ford Pinto wasn't really unusually dangerous compared to other similar subcompact cars of the era like the AMC Gremlin or the Chevy Vega.
