Following last week's launch of its $59,990 Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive Cybertruck, Tesla has confirmed the introductory price will rise after February 28, 2026. Surging demand has pushed estimated U.S. delivery dates for new orders to September-October 2026, up from prior May-June estimates.
Tesla updated its website to state that the base Cybertruck's introductory pricing—introduced February 20—ends after February 28, 2026, without disclosing the new price. CEO Elon Musk noted on X that the roughly 10-day window from February 20 is to gauge demand.
New orders now show delivery estimates of September-October 2026, reflecting strong interest since launch. An X poll indicated about 950 respondents had ordered the variant, suggesting potential revenue exceeding $57 million.
This base model offers a 325-mile EPA range, 4.1-second 0-60 mph, 7,500-pound towing, and 2,006-pound payload, but lacks premium features like air suspension and vegan leather found in the $79,990 Premium AWD and $99,990 Cyberbeast trims.
Cybertruck sales totaled 38,965 units in 2024 and fell to 20,237 in 2025, well below projections. Production continues at Giga Texas with no halt planned, unlike possible pauses for Model S/X. TSLA stock sentiment on Stocktwits remains bullish, up 24% over the past year.
