The cyber cat is finally out of the faraday bag, as they say. The production form of theTesla Cybertruck electric pickup is here, revealing what we all feared to be true: The single-motor, $39,900 version of the truck is not happening, and it will be much more expensive than many reservation holders expected. Tesla’s truck is currently available in three versions available to pre-order on the company’s website. Here’s what you can expect to pay for each version of the Tesla Cybertruck in 2024.
Tesla Cybertruck Foundation Series – details and price
A “Foundation Series” of the Tesla Cybertruck starts at around $100,000 (in dual-motor, AWD layout). This version includes Tesla’s Full Self-Driving suite, as well as the light bar and some hardware for power sharing with external accessories.
Tesla Cybertruck Rear-Wheel Drive – details
The so-called “Rear-Wheel Drive” trim on the Cybertruck order page mentions that it should get an estimated 250 miles of range on a charge and accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 6.5 seconds. It also has an expected top speed of 112 mph and a towing capacity of 7,500 pounds.
Tesla Cybertruck Rear-Wheel Drive – price
The rear-wheel drive powertrain Tesla Cybertruck will be available at a purchase price of $60,990, before factoring in any incentives. Tesla says it won’t go on sale until later, likely in 2025.
Tesla Cybertruck options – light bar, tent and spare wheel
Tesla has also teased a light bar upgrade option, and a bed-mounted “Basecamp” inflatable tent setup that’s said to include a mattress in the purchase price. The Cybertruck website details that the available integrated light bar can illuminate up to 525 yards ahead of the pickup, the Basecamp tent fits two adults “and pumps up in minutes,” and there’s also the option for a bed-mounted, covered spare wheel and tire. The tent, at launch, was reportedly priced at around $3,000, a painted body wrap was listed for $6,500 (or a clear wrap for $5,000), and the spare wheel setup could set you back $1,250.
