Tesla Slims Cybertruck Offerings to Only Its Most Expensive Trim
The Cyberbeast price rose $7,500 to $109,990 as estimated deliveries slipped to March–June 2027.
Tesla has reduced its Cybertruck lineup to a single configuration, eliminating lower-priced trims as the company prepares to wind down production of the electric pickup.
What Happened
Tesla stopped accepting orders for the Cybertruck Premium AWD, leaving the Cyberbeast as the only available trim. The price of the Cyberbeast increased by $7,500, bringing its cost to $109,990. Additionally, estimated delivery windows for the vehicle have shifted to March–June 2027, aligning with the planned wind-down of manufacturing at Giga Texas in mid-2027.
Why It Matters
The move signals Tesla's strategic pivot away from the Cybertruck, which the company previously announced would cease production by the middle of 2027. Tesla attributes the decision to prioritize resources for the Cybercab, an autonomous vehicle intended to handle the majority of passenger miles in jurisdictions where it is permitted. Elon Musk has stated that ramping a high-volume line for the Cybertruck is too difficult compared to ending production, a stance that limits options for buyers seeking utility or family capacity in the current Tesla lineup.
The Bottom Line
Customers seeking a new Cybertruck must now purchase the top-tier Cyberbeast at $109,990 with delivery expected no earlier than spring 2027, as Tesla shifts its manufacturing focus toward autonomous vehicles like the Cybercab.
