Do we know for sure if the basic version has the glass roof visible or covered up with fabric like on the basic Y?

I ordered the $79k Cybertruck on 2/5, VIN was assigned on 2/7, and delivery is scheduled for 3/6.

Now Tesla just announced the $59k AWD version (no air suspension), and I’m honestly hesitating. I’m currently leased at $1,190/month with $3,000 down, and the new one would be about $980/month with the same down payment.

It’s basically a $210/month difference for air suspension and whatever else comes with the higher trim.

I’m close to delivery and not sure if I should stick with my order or switch. What would you do in this situation?

For the Model Y, the roof difference is explicitly spelled out in the trim comparison table:

Tesla Cybertruck $59,990 Dual Motor AWD Cybertruck announced! (Estimated Delivery Date Now 2027!) roof


But there is no indication of any roof differences in the Cybertruck trim comparison table -- or anywhere else that I've seen. I think they all have the glass roof -- even the discontinued RWD.

I don't think anyone can answer that for you besides you!

Heated front seats only (no ventilation)

I mean lets be fair, the CT and CT don't have ventilated seats either.

My 2026 ventilated seats work great.

Another thing is losing the active noise canceling means the 60K version will be louder.

On one hand I'm glad the Cybertruck will live on. On the other hand, this will boost sales a lot and make them much more common...

New Dual Motor AWD Cybertruck is now available to order in the US!

https://www.tesla.com/cybertruck/design#overview

This is the most affordable Cybertruck yet.

Starts at $59,990
– Dual Motor AWD
- 325 mi of range
– Powered tonneau cover
– 7,500 lb towing capacity
- 0-60mph: 4.1s
– Bed outlets (2x 120V + 1x 240V) & Powershare capability
– Coil springs w/ adaptive damping
– 325kW max charging speed
– Heated first-row seats w/ textile material that is easy to clean
– Steer-by-wire & Four Wheel Steering
– 6’ x 4’ composite bed
– Towing capacity of up to 7,500 lbs
– Powered frunk
- Durable textile interior
- 18’’ Wheels with all-season tires
- Same 18.5" center display as other tires. No 9" rear screen


Differences in the new $59,990 dual-motor AWD Cybertruck trim vs. the $79,990 Premium AWD trim:

• 7,500 lb towing capacity (11k lbs on Premium trim)
• 2,006 lbs payload (down from 2,500 lbs)
• Coil spring suspension with adaptive damping (vs air suspension)
• 18" wheels (instead of 20")
• Textile seats (vs premium interior)
• Heated front seats only (no ventilation)
• 7-speaker sound system (instead of 15-speaker premium system)
• No 9.4" second-row display
• No two 120V cabin power outlets
• Bed with motorized tonneau cover (instead of the Vault bed)
• Standard bed and tail lamps instead of premium lighting
• No L-track cargo rails
I saw Joe’s post earlier. I have thought that if Tesla sold a model that had most of the functionality of the AWD at a better than $70K price it would sell. I think at $60K this is it.

Interesting! Pretty good! But no off-road capabilities unless the coil spring is set high clearance from factory and unless the pics havent been added, it doesn’t look like it…
You mean serious/sport off-roading right? I have had many vehicles I took off-road (because I had to get someplace to do something fun). None of them had a 10” clearance or adaptive suspension and worked out just fine.

- No L-Tracks
Nope, no L-Tracks. However, Tesla still offers the L-Tracks as an optional $250 accessory for the discontinued RWD Long Range trim. Seems likely that the accessory L-tracks could be installed on the new AWD trim as well (although I would confirm that with Tesla before dropping $250).

And if you can add the L-Tracks, then of course that would open the door to a host of other exciting Cybertruck bed accessories, like the Bed Cargo Divider, the MOLLE Panels, the Hooks, and the Cleat.

You could even install the awesome Cybertruck L-Track Bottle Opener, and then people might think that your truck was Foundation Series.

Still has the range, acceleration, powered tonneau, and SBW. Biggest differences to me are the suspension, textile seats, and speakers. Everything else is…eh. Would I pay an extra 20k for those? Probably not. The 60k AWD is a bargain.

You do realize that the value of your current CTs dropped like 10-15k overnight? and that there will barely be any sales the next months until this, really great deal, version is coming online?

Real question. Who would buy the higher trim AWD now? Awfully big jump in price for those options.

I think it offers a solid package for $59,990, and it can be with FSD for $99 per month.

It should sell. Fingers crossed. 🤞
