I don’t see a reason to sell a cybertruck one cent over the $80k IRA limit. Cells/range will be cut before going over $80k. Plus from registered VIN GVWR ratings, 500 miles

Is this real?

Did the caller have an Indian accent and also work for “Microsoft Support Team”.

Hows about one of our better known members approach and ask for proof to be privately shared? Bet it dries up pretty quick. Bit tired of the APs myself. Think they bring far more BS than good.

I’d be all in favor for people to try to find out the pricing. At the end of the day, just trying to get an accurate picture of what the real pricing is.

The vin or gvwr says nothing about range. It just says what the total vehicle weight + payload can be. And it’s a generous range for weight too

Same here, but APs bring exactly nothing to validate the claims. Some people just like to cause chaos.

Afaik, this FB post has been the only post that’s proposed a number. Also, $98,900 isn’t entirely unrealistic

MXP is now $95k. The CT uses more battery than an MXP, presumably same motors, yet brand new manufacturing process. So, I can see how the CT trimotor could be more than an MXP.

MX production line has been around for a long time now, and the capital equipment has probably been depreciated a lot already and the manufacturing staff are very familiar with the process. CT equipment and production line are brand new. And why wouldn’t Tesla try to capture as much profit while the car is new and demand high?

The post is garbage because he says he "doesn't know if Tesla wants this shared". If he really was contacted by them they would have been very, very clear if he can share. They have guarded the price and range of the truck like Nuclear codes.
