The electric pickup truck is set to go into production this summer.<\/p>\n<p>Now reservation holders have been waiting for an update on Cybertruck specs, configurations, and pricing ahead of the start of production or deliveries, but it doesn\u2019t look like it will be the case.<\/p>\n<p>Tesla CEO Elon Musk has indicated that it won\u2019t give an update until <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2023\/04\/19\/elon-musk-announces-tesla-cybertruck-delivery-event\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the Cybertruck delivery event currently aimed for at the end of Q3<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>So how much could the Tesla Cybertruck cost now following years of inflation and supply chain problems?<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-electrek-s-take\">Electrek\u2019s Take<\/h2>\n<p>To be clear, this is my best estimate based on a decade of following this industry closely and Tesla in particular every day and not something based on inside information.<\/p>\n<p>As far as I can tell, Tesla probably doesn\u2019t know exactly where the price will end up. The automaker is likely waiting to have a better understanding of its own production and a look at the rest of the market.<\/p>\n<p>We already have pricing on the Rivian R1T and Ford F-150 Lightning, but those are evolving and we are also waiting for final pricing on the Silverado EV, which <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2023\/05\/19\/chevy-silverado-ev-electric-pickup-450-miles-range\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">just got more interesting<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Here is where I think Tesla will end up with Cybertruck pricing and configurations:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Dual Motor AWD with 300+ miles of range, 0-60 mph in 4.5 seconds, top speed of 120 mph, and starting price of $60,000<\/li>\n<li>Tri Motor AWD with 400+ miles of range, 0-60 mph in 2.9 seconds, top speed of 130 mph, and starting price of $75,000<\/li>\n<li>Quad Motor AWD with 450+ miles of range, 0-60 mph in 2.5 seconds, top speed of 130 mph, and starting price of $85,000<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Musk has previously indicated that a Quad motor option will be made available. I think Tesla could also leave behind the single motor option, and even if it doesn\u2019t, it won\u2019t come to market for years.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s also the case for the dual motor. I wouldn\u2019t expect it to reach the market until 2025.<\/p>\n<p>The quad motor is likely going to be first, but the only problem is that I find it hard to believe Tesla will be able to sell it for less than $80,000, which will be the target since it\u2019s the price limit for the $7,500 federal tax credit for SUV and trucks.<\/p>\n<p>Other than that muddying the waters, I think it should be pretty close to that.<\/p>\n<p>What do you think?
