For my F350 I can use 2 heavy duty jack stands (its about the same weight as a CT) and a 4 ton floor jack. I watched how Big O tires did it, so I got the same set up. They would jack up the front from the center diff and place the stands under the front. Then the release the jack and go to the back. They would jack it up in the rear center diff and they had everything up in the air. They somehow did the whole thing in about 8 minutes... impressive.

They used a NAPA 4 ton floor jack. They go on sale all the time. I watched for it and got the exact same jack for $200 when NAPA had a good sale going.

Now... for the CT, I have no idea if you can center jack it in the rear or front. Perhaps someone in the know can let us know. That said, you can get one side up in the air on the jack stands and use the floor jack on the other side 1 tire at a time for when you do a cross-over of the tires. So the minimum is 2 jack stands and 1 floor jack. YMMV.
Tesla documents this out pretty well - https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/cybertruck/en_us/GUID-9E6DD5CB-40BA-4A29-B20D-457303555037.html
