Cybertent (BaseCamp Tent) info/specs/pics from Cybertruck Accessories Engineer ⛺️

I was at the delivery event and got to talk with one of the Accessories engineers, here is what I learned about the tent, please see my pictures below.

1) The structure is inflatable to 8PSI. The tent comes with a manual air pump (see pictures). Is much faster to inflate with a manual pump.
2) The tent is a double-wall design and it has several windows/vents that can be zipped.
3) The tent has a pass-thru (basically a hole in one of the tent pockets) for AC cables (for the heater, lights, etc)
4) I asked why not use CT's heaters -- he mentioned that CT has inefficient heating when compared with a local electrical heater. (entire vehicle vs tent)
5) The tent is 6ft long and it flies above the extended battery pack, it is anchored in the L-track. 2/3rds of the truck bed are still available (under the mounted tent) to store things with or without the tent erected.
6) The price of the tent will be comparable with any other car tent.
7) The tent comes in an enclosure that can fit right above the battery extender.
6) The bed is composed of 3 planks resting on some sort of L-track supports, on top of the planks there is a thin mattress that folds into something 1/3 the size.
7) Dunno if the manual air pump fits in the tent package or must be stored separately. My memory is a bit fuzzy on this: not sure if the pump is sold as a Tesla product.

Hope this helps,
-Andrei
P.S. I am getting the extended battery and the tent. This will leave me with 2/3rds of the truck bed for 'others'.

Thank you for the information. Did you happen to notice if the truck had ventilated seats. I have been unable to find out.

I wasn't paying attention to the seats, sorry, zooming in my 'random' seat picture, I think they are. But noticed this in at least one vehicle. Note the dashboard, strange.

I believe front seats are heated and cooled and rear seats only heated.

That's exactly what I heard on one of the YouTube reviews.

Oh neat, there's a sliding cover for the cup and phone holders.

If the tailgate is down when the tent is deployed, how my stuff won't be stolen while sleeping?

did he mention anything about who collabed on the tent build?

Because it sure Looks like this is a tent collaboration with NEMO.

I recognize those air bladders - lived in a NEMO for 1.5 months. Though my vehicle and “vault” at the time was a bit more analogue than a Cybertruck




If it is NEMO, I can vouch for the manual pump being very effective and low maintenance (and low storage volume)

Why not automatically inflate with air compressor from CT?

This has some cool features that I find interesting, but also simplistic. Most likely will accessorize!

Addendum: the tent is removable? I assume it is.

I do like the Apollo era Lunar Excursion Module style windows.

On thing - it's not possible that the CT's heaters were not efficient enough for this tent, as that is a heat pump.

Needs an extended rod to shut the tail gate closed for added raccoon security.
