RWD Cybertruck MSRP prediction

[Mini2nut]

Hello fellow Cybertruck fans.

Not to brag but I predicted the 2024 non-foundation CT MSRP before it was announced ($79,990). Many members thought my number was WAY too high but I turned out to be spot on. I had a hunch that all of the new CT technology such as SBW, RWS, adjustable air suspension, etc would come with premium price tag.

With that being said I feel pretty confident about my pricing prediction for the upcoming 2025 RWD model. Here it is:

$60,990 + $1,995 destination fee (not factoring in tariff’s)

I predict that Tesla will open the order books for the more affordable RWD model in Q2, possibly Q3 in 2025.

I also predict that Tesla will make the rolling tonneau cover optional, de-content the amazing sound system and black “steelie” wheels will be standard equipment to help achieve a $20k lower price point.

Let me know your thoughts.

I think it's 50/50 we see the RWD this year.

I think Tesla is still trying to work the pricing down. The dry cathode and all cost savings measures will need to be in place before a $60k CT can be offered without Tesla taking a loss on each unit sold.

People like Troy Teslike believe that the 80k AWD is taking a small loss and the only reason Tesla said they were profitable was the extended FS and that almost all units produced before the Q3 earnings were CB.

Hey man I’m digging the Steelies

The new 2026 GMC Sierra Elevation EV will undercut the AWD Cybertruck by $15k ($64,495). It goes into production this summer.

We'll see what the pricing is after a few months with the new Tariffs.

~$60k is my guess too, with various discounts/incentives to get to around 55k for quarter ends

I think $60k might happen, but it will be at least Q3 and I think they will cut the battery size/range.

I also called the pricing before reveal. They're not going to hit $60K with the current battery pack and air suspension. Would definitely need to have a smaller pack to make a dent on pricing. As mentioned above, I think they're losing money on most trucks and won't be eager to sell a cheaper version soon.

You pay $20K more for an extra motor on the Cyberbeast, so I do not see any issue with paying $20K less than AWD since you are getting only 1 motor with RWD

Anybody else think we won't see a RWD at all this year? I don't think we will. Just a guess.

Seems like there is a lot going on and RWD version will be pushed to the back of the pile of things that need to get done first.

I don't recall hearing anything about this at the most recent investor calls. Seems like we need to hear Elon or Tesla say it's coming and add a significant amount of time to what they say.

It looks like RWD CT production is starting ramp up in TX.
