Buyback/replacement approved. 2027 model year start?

The CT already has new battery tech, but it's cheaper for Tesla, doesn't increase range for consumers.

AI5 will be sometime mid-late 2027.

I would guess we won't see anything big for the CT until 2027.

Maybe. The dry cathode is probably in the cars, but they haven't confirmed anything to my knowledge. It doesn't increase range, but could save not only Tesla, but consumers money. (I suspect it's a factor in the launching of the new trim)

AI5 is set to start trial production late 2026 so it may be in vehicles before mid 2027.

Other battery improvements have been talked about, new versions of the 4680 cell, some with more capacity, that could launch this year. This is in addition to the dry cathode.

Other non-drivetrain improvements are possible if not likely in the coming year or two. They could be implemented at any time, and don't need to wait for a larger update. They changed the headliner on Model 3 and Y recently, for example. They added new seat configs to Model Y and X and random times and without notice.

We're over a couple years into the CT production now, seems like their engineers might be itchy to add features or improve something.

The M3 still hasn't had the screen or headliner update, but I agree Tesla updates at random times.

I just don't see anything major coming to the CT with the low sales.

Vin. 81xxxx

I'm at 80xxx should I be worried?

I wouldn’t worry. It’s hit or miss.

Glad to hear that fixed the issue for you. Fingers crossed that service will do the same for mine. Cool they let you keep the old one as a spare too.

I love the Cybertruck a lot, but being constantly reminded of these annoying issues greatly diminishes its value for me.

There are several threads on this and I posted a long time ago how to fix it with some pressing of their clips and silicon spray. I did this 1.5 years ago and haven't had a single squeak in it since.

They tried the silicone spray and putting felt tape in multiple times and it failed after a while necessitatingthe entire swap out of the console.

Looks like no documentable changes in 2026. The warranty actually remains the same for cyber truck, although it changes for all the other Tesla vehicles.

So hopefully they work out some of the rattles and squeaks in the 26 versus my 25.

no, the 2026 has a longer warranty for the PCS. 7 years I believe.
