You've Got 10 Days To Buy A Tesla Cybertruck For Under $62k
The Cybertruck was never going to be cheap. With a bespoke stainless stell body and its positioning as Tesla's halo car, the controversial truck isn't something Tesla is willing to part with easily. For the next ten (10) days, however, that changes. A new, more affordable Cybertruck has shown up on the brand's website, with the automaker's CEO, Elon Musk, stating on his social media platform X (née Twitter) that the new trim level would last just 10 days. It's a Cybertruck flash sale.
10 days to get the cheapest Cybertruck ever
No one knows what happens after the ten days are up, though. Musk, ever laconic on plans for Tesla, didn't say. The post below is all that was shared. Any specs have been shared solely via Tesla's website.
Only for the next 10 days https://t.co/82JnvZQGh2

The new truck starts at $61,985 (including the $1,995 destination fee) and uses the truck's dual-motor configuration, with an electric motor situated at each axle. The brand says it should net around 325 miles of range (its estimate, not the EPA's) and will do 60 mph in around 4.1 seconds. Tow capacity is also included on the webpage, which is listed at 7,500 pounds with a 2,006-pound payload capacity. Tesla has a few option packages available for the new trim, too. That includes a Terrestrial Armor Package, adding underbody protection and heavy-duty rock sliders for an extra $3,000, as well as Tesla's Supervised Full-Self Driving for $99 a month. You can no longer purchase FSD outright.
Tesla further adjusts Cybertruck pricing
Other changes have been made to the Cybertruck's pricing. The range-topping Cyberbeast trim falls by $15,000 to $101,985 following the brand's attempt to raise prices by that amount last August. Notably, the latest entry-level model is a full $20,000 cheaper than the next trim level up, which starts at more than $80,000, but boasts more towing and payload capacity.
Tesla's reasons for introducing the cheaper trim aren't clear. Musk set some lofty pricing targets for the truck way back when, which never really materialized. Perhaps this is the CEO's way of following through while creating some induced demand by way of scarcity in the process. Musk has said in the past that he may fall behind on timelines, but that Tesla always delivers on its promises.
