📡 EXCLUSIVE: Cybertruck specs update including dimensions, seating, displays, tires / wheels, accessories & more! [from video aired 3/10/23]

People freaking out about his price speculation, he was saying the TOP model would be 90-110k. That's normal. Pickup trucks serve a VERY wide base of customers. They are both work beaters and America's luxury car. I know far more rich people that drive a blinged out truck than a Mercedes or Bimmer. It's somehow more socially acceptable. What Matty said was the top model will play with the Raptors, etc, which makes sense. It's a small part of the truck market but a fairly large market in real numbers, and it's high profit. He also said there would be the base or dual motor variant that will be more affordable. It will probably start in the $60-70k range for now. The average pickup price is $46k, so not bad to pay for a much better vehicle and no massive gas bills. Tesla probably won't bother with the entry level part of the market for some time as they build up capacity and sell higher-margin trucks for a bit. I can see down the road them revisiting the Single motor option, maybe with a few blingy features taken out to get the price down.

Has there ever been a case where Tesla launched and sold a mid or low tier level before a top tier level? I’m always under the impression they launch the most expensive model variant first. Maybe I’m wrong.

It makes me wonder, What options are available? White interior? Different Wheels? Maybe the winches and other accessories at order time.

Accessories are also something that differ from regular cars when it comes to trucks. It's customization heaven. Tesla knows this, it's no wonder they're working on it internally. I'd speculate:

-Interior color (black, white, brown)
-Tire packages (standard, performance, off-road)
-FSD

Then factory accessory kits like off road stuff (winches, etc), a camping set up, etc.

They usually do top tier first, but at announcement they said dual motor would come first. They changed it to tri shortly after i believe.

This whole forum will change once we have our CTs in hand and want ideas for upgrades, how to get maximum efficiencies, hidden easter eggs, how much range people are ACTUALLY getting on a charge, etc.

I think once deliveries start, we will start getting new forum members daily. That will be...interesting.

I hope they are able to get the accessories out quickly. Rivian still hasnt delivered all theirs.

Top spec was announced at 69k right? For Tri-motor? If we take the plaid model S adding another motor for 20k, that. would put. quad motor at 89k (not too far off) but we dont know if quad motor will exist at all.

If its starting at 60-70k for the dual motor thats a pretty big upswing.

The issue is, this guy is comparing tot model X. But at announcement, it was more model Y

Yeah it is, but I think that's what the market will bear right now. I do think they will eventually work the price down.

Yeah, I'd love to have a winch and camping setup right from the get-go.

They can only sell what they can build.

Whatever version comes out first, I think, will it will qualify for the truck tax credit. so I am thinking tri-motor still under 80k

I almost lost hope looking at the bumper on all the betas and prototypes..... but I kept thinking what better car company to design their own winch that can vastly out preform current market than a company that literally designs and manufactures high end electric drive trains.

I dunno about that vid. Will wait for final specs and pricing to be released by Tesla, everything is fake news until that happens. Just saying 🥲

Be nice to get some word on whether it will be flat towable behind a motorhome (I'm a full timer). I won't be able to get my day 1 reservation if that is the case since I'm not willing to trailer it. Guess I keep the Wrangler until something better comes along.

That would cost a lot more than just buying two Cybertrucks.

Adopt out those kids
