Tesla Cuts Cybertruck Prices to Jump‑Start Sluggish Demand for Unpainted Steel
Tesla slashed Cybertruck prices to boost demand, adding a $59,990 dual-motor entry with 325 miles of range and the same 0–60 mph time as the pricier model but reduced towing (7,000 lbs) and payload (2,006 lbs). The top-trim tri-motor version drops $15,000 to $99,990 but loses some free features like supercharging and FSD. The moves come as Cybertruck sales have been weak (under 39,000 in 2024 and about 20,000 in 2025) and Musk’s earlier forecast of 250,000 annual sales by 2025 has not materialized, with Tesla citing production challenges and shifts in model configurations as context.
