In the year 2019, many things have undergone significant changes, including the occurrence of the pandemic, Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter, and the global shortage in the supply chain. These factors played an evident role in affecting the launch date of the Tesla Cybertruck. Initially, Tesla had promised us a range of 500 miles and a starting price of $39,900 for the single motor, dual motor, and tri-motor versions. However, the Cybertruck will now have a starting price of $60,990 for the rear-wheel-drive single motor version, which won’t be available until 2025.
The four-wheel-drive version will cost $79,990, and it will possess a horsepower of 600 with a torque of up to 1,000 Nm. This version can cover a distance of approximately 545 km on a single charge, a significant reduction from the initially announced 805 km. It has an acceleration time from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.1 seconds and can reach a top speed of 180 km/h. The commercial version of the Cybertruck can tow nearly 5 tons and carry over 1.1 tons of cargo on a bed that is longer than 1.8 meters.
The highest-end model of the Tesla Cybertruck, known as the Cyberbeast, has a monstrous power output of 845 horsepower and a torque of 10,296 lb-ft (again, at the wheels). This electric pickup truck can go from 0 to 96 km/h in a staggering 2.6 seconds, reaching a top speed of 210 km/h.
Despite its unconventional design, Tesla claims that the Cybertruck has an impressively low drag coefficient of 0.335. It is worth noting that the Rivian R1T boasts a slightly lower coefficient of 0.30. The Cybertruck features 35-inch off-road tires and offers a ground clearance of up to 17 inches. Other notable features include a rear differential lock, a wire steering system, and a rear-wheel steering system that enables tighter turns compared to the Model S. Additionally, the Cybertruck is the first vehicle to embrace a 24-volt electrical system as opposed to the typical 12-volt system.
