Tesla delays cheapest Cybertruck deliveries until 2027

Tesla has updated its website to show delivery estimates of 2027 for new orders of the Dual Motor all-wheel drive Cybertruck variant, priced at $59,990. This follows the variant's launch last week and indicates strong demand, with production slots sold out through the end of 2026. The company plans to increase the price after February 28.

Tesla Inc. launched the Dual Motor all-wheel drive (AWD) variant of its Cybertruck last week at a starting price of $59,990, positioning it as the cheapest option among the three available versions. The premium all-wheel drive and Cyberbeast variants are priced at $79,990 and $99,990, respectively. According to Tesla's online configurator, new orders for the Dual Motor AWD now face delivery waits until 2027 for zip codes in Texas and California, a shift from initial estimates of June 2026.

Delivery timelines have shifted rapidly since orders opened. Early estimates pointed to June 2026, but strong interest pushed them to November 2026 within days. Subsequent updates moved dates to March 2027 for some customers, and now the configurator simply lists 2027 without specifics for recent orders. In contrast, higher-end dual-motor and tri-motor versions offer deliveries within 10 to 12 weeks.

Tesla announced earlier this week that the $59,990 price for the Dual Motor AWD will rise after February 28, though no new price was specified. This variant includes features such as an estimated 325 miles of range, powered tonneau cover, 7,500-pound towing capacity, steer-by-wire, and four-wheel steering. It uses coil springs with adaptive damping instead of air suspension found in pricier trims.

The Cybertruck began deliveries in November 2023, years after its 2019 unveiling where Elon Musk predicted entry-level pricing around $40,000 and annual sales up to 500,000 units. Actual 2025 sales for premium models including Cybertruck fell below 20,000 units estimated, amid higher-than-expected prices and mixed reception to its stainless steel design. Retail sentiment on Stocktwits remains extremely bullish for TSLA stock, which has risen 42% over the past year.

Cybertruck Owners Club forum users noted the demand is rebuilding reservation queues, with one owner, Vin, suggesting a $10,000 price hike to $69,990 to boost conversion rates from the current $250 nonrefundable deposit orders.

What people are saying

X users react positively to Tesla's Cybertruck Dual Motor delivery delays to 2027, attributing it to overwhelming demand and celebrating sold-out slots through 2026. Enthusiasts urge ordering now to secure the $59,990 price before the post-February 28 increase. Skeptics view the backlog as driven by temporary discount pricing rather than sustainable interest, citing prior sales struggles.
