Tesla Cybertruck: new entry-level all-wheel-drive version costs $20,000 less

Tesla Cybertruck entry-level version cuts costs

Tesla Cybertruck sales fell well short of expectations over the past year, prompting the American manufacturer to introduce a new, significantly cheaper entry-level all-wheel-drive model. It costs $20,000 less - roughly €17,000 at the current exchange rate - than the Premium version.

Priced from $59,990, or around €50,821, the new “low-cost” Tesla Cybertruck uses the same mechanical set-up as the Premium model: two electric motors, one on each axle, supplied by a battery with an undisclosed capacity. Its claimed range is approximately 523 km under the North American EPA cycle.

Tesla Cybertruck equipment and towing reductions

To achieve the lower price, Tesla has removed several extras. The suspension remains adaptive, although it no longer offers ride-height adjustment, while the wheels are reduced to 18 inches. Inside, cloth seats replace synthetic leather, and comfort features including front-seat ventilation and active noise cancellation have been removed.

The audio system has also been pared back, falling from 15 speakers to seven. Additional cabin power outlets have been dropped, as has the 9.4-inch rear display.

Although it retains the Premium version's powertrain, maximum towing capacity falls from 4989 kg to 3402 kg, alongside a slight reduction in payload capacity.

Price cuts across the Tesla range

This mirrors the approach already taken with the Tesla Model 3 and Model Y, which became €7,000 and €8,000 cheaper respectively. Prices for those models now start at €36,990 and €39,990.

At the same time, Tesla has reduced the price of the range-topping Cyberbeast by $15,000 - about €12,700. It now costs $99,990, approximately €84,700, returning to the price charged before the increase introduced in 2025.

As with the other versions, the Tesla Cybertruck will remain unavailable in Europe.
