Tesla Lifts Cybertruck Prices Up to 10%, Drops Base Trim Orders

Tesla has raised Cybertruck prices in the US by as much as 10% and stopped accepting orders for the base Dual Motor AWD version, Electrek reported. The cheapest Cybertruck a buyer can order now costs $92,490.

The increase came right after CEO Elon Musk said on X that Tesla will wind down Cybertruck production at Gigafactory Texas around the middle of 2027. Musk wrote that the plant space is needed “to make room for increased Cybercab production,” according to Teslarati.

New Cybertruck prices by trim

Electrek compared Tesla’s online configurator with the prices Tesla set in August:

  • Dual Motor AWD: $82,490, up from $74,990, a $7,500 or 10% increase. The trim is listed at the higher price but can no longer be ordered.
  • Premium AWD: $92,490, up from $84,990, a $7,500 or 8.8% increase.
  • Cyberbeast: $102,490, up from $99,990, a $2,500 or 2.5% increase.

This is the second increase in under three months. In August, Tesla added $5,000 to two trims, moving the Dual Motor from $69,990 to $74,990 and the Premium AWD from $79,990 to $84,990.

What it means for Cybertruck shoppers

Buyers now pay far more to get into the truck than they did this summer. By Electrek’s count, the Premium AWD costs $12,500 (15.6%) more than in early August. The lowest price for any orderable Cybertruck rose from $69,990 to $92,490, a 32% jump over roughly 10 weeks.

With the Dual Motor greyed out, shoppers who want a Cybertruck have two choices left: the Premium AWD and the Cyberbeast. Tesla first showed the truck in 2019 with a promised starting price of $39,900.

Electrek described the move as a wind-down strategy: with production ending, Tesla is pushing remaining buyers into higher-margin versions, and the announcement may prompt fans to lock in an order before the truck is gone.

Sales were already falling

Tesla does not report Cybertruck deliveries on their own. They sit in an “Other Models” group alongside the Model S, Model X and Semi. That group fell 48% from a year earlier to 8,295 units in the third quarter. Electrek estimates that 7,000 to 8,000 of those were Cybertrucks, about 12% of the truck line’s annual capacity of 250,000 units.

Tesla tried lower prices earlier this year. In February it offered a dual-motor Cybertruck at $59,990 for what it called only the next 10 days, then withdrew it. A single-motor rear-wheel-drive version was dropped after 173 sales, according to Electrek.

Teslarati noted the Cybertruck has been the best-selling electric pickup but fell short of expectations, largely because Tesla did not hit the prices it planned at the unveiling. The truck’s reveal and its actual release were four years apart.

Where the Cybertruck is still sold

The truck is not sold in Europe or in most right-hand-drive markets. Tesla canceled it for Australia and New Zealand last month, Electrek reported.

Reaction from Tesla fans was mixed, Teslarati said. Some accepted the shift toward the Cybercab, Tesla’s driverless robotaxi vehicle, while others questioned it. Analyst Gary Black said he hoped Tesla would replace the Cybertruck with a pickup of more traditional design. Teslarati said that does not look likely.
