The 2026 Tesla Cybertruck is now a three-trim, all-wheel-drive-only lineup in the United States: the Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive at $74,990, the Premium All-Wheel Drive at $84,990 and the tri-motor Cyberbeast at $99,990, according to Tesla's US configurator in late September 2026. All three trims share the same 123 kWh battery and the same unpainted stainless-steel body, and the EPA rates the two dual-motor trucks at 325 miles (about 523 km) and the Cyberbeast at 320 miles (about 515 km). Prices have moved sharply this year: the Cyberbeast was cut by $15,000 in February, a stripped-down Dual Motor briefly launched at $59,990, and on August 25 Tesla raised the Dual Motor and Premium trims by $5,000 each. The single-motor rear-drive Long Range trim is no longer offered, and the long-promised Range Extender battery was cancelled in 2025. What remains is a very fast, very capable and very unusual electric pickup that is still sold only in a limited number of markets.
Performance & Specs
The Dual Motor and Premium trims use two electric motors, one at each axle, and both are listed by Tesla with the same 4.1-second 0-60 mph time and a 112 mph top speed. Tesla does not publish a horsepower figure for these trims, but independent references consistently put the dual-motor system at about 600 hp (roughly 447 kW). The Cyberbeast adds a third motor, giving it two at the rear and one at the front, for 845 hp (about 630 kW), a 2.6-second 0-60 mph run with rollout subtracted, and a 130 mph top speed. Tesla also quotes 10,296 lb-ft of torque for the Cyberbeast, but that is a wheel-torque figure after gearing, not the torque of the motors themselves, so it should not be compared directly with the motor torque numbers other automakers publish. Weight climbs with the hardware: Tesla lists 6,537 lb (about 2,965 kg) for the Dual Motor, 6,634 lb (about 3,009 kg) for the Premium and 6,863 lb (about 3,113 kg) for the Cyberbeast. Steering is steer-by-wire with rear-wheel steering on every trim, which shrinks the turning circle of a truck that is nearly 224 inches long.

The Cybertruck is a full-size, five-seat pickup that is about 223.7 inches (5,683 mm) long on a 143.1-inch (3,635 mm) wheelbase, and it stands 70.6 inches (1,793 mm) tall. Width is 86.6 inches (2,200 mm) with the mirrors folded and 95 inches (2,413 mm) with them extended, which matters in tight parking spaces and narrow trails. The bed is 6 feet long and 4 feet wide, and Tesla rates payload at up to 2,500 lb. On the Premium and Cyberbeast trims the bed comes with a motorized hardtop tonneau cover, an under-bed gear locker, 120 V and 240 V outlets and full-length bed lighting, and Tesla says the closed tonneau adds up to 13 miles of range. Tesla lists total cargo volume at 117.3 cubic feet for the Dual Motor and 120.7 cubic feet for the Premium and Cyberbeast, a figure that combines the cabin, front trunk and covered bed. Ground clearance is a key difference between trims: the Dual Motor has a fixed 10 inches, while the Premium and Cyberbeast use adaptive air suspension that raises the truck to 16 inches in Extract Mode.

Charging & Battery
Every 2026 Cybertruck uses the same 123 kWh battery, so trim choice changes power and equipment rather than pack size. Tesla lists a maximum Supercharging rate of 325 kW, with up to 132 miles of range added in 15 minutes on the Dual Motor, 137 miles on the Premium and 135 miles on the Cyberbeast. Those numbers are peak-condition claims and real sessions depend on battery temperature and starting charge, so Tesla does not publish a fixed 10-80% time. At home, the included Mobile Connector adds up to 30 miles of range per hour. Divide the battery by the EPA range and you get roughly 0.38 kWh per mile (about 378 Wh/mile) at the battery, which is a heavy appetite for a truck weighing close to three tonnes and helps explain why the EPA range stops near 325 miles despite such a large pack. The battery also works as a power source: Powershare can deliver up to 11.5 kW to a home. On September 10, 2026, Tesla announced that Powershare can now run together with a Powerwall 3 for more than three days of extra backup, and typical installation of the required gateway and Universal Wall Connector costs about $4,000 according to Electrek.

Design & Interior
The Cybertruck still looks like nothing else on the road. Its exterior panels are unpainted stainless steel, and the windows and glass roof use shatter-resistant armor glass that Tesla says can handle a baseball-sized hailstone. The angular body is deliberately flat-sided and the roof line runs straight back into the bed, which keeps the cab compact for a truck of this length. Inside, the cabin is minimalist: a yoke-style steering wheel, an 18.5-inch center touchscreen and a low dashboard with a wrap-around ambient light strip. The Dual Motor trim keeps things simple, while the Premium and Cyberbeast add ventilated front seats, heated second-row seats, a 9.4-inch rear touchscreen for passengers, a 15-speaker audio system, extra cabin outlets and adaptive air suspension. Second-row seat cushions fold up for extra storage, and Tesla says its 360-degree acoustic glass gives the quietest ride it has offered in a truck.
Technology & Features
The Cybertruck runs Tesla's touchscreen-first interface, with climate, seats, drive modes and trailer settings all controlled from the 18.5-inch display, and driver profiles that automatically restore seat and wheel positions. Drive modes include Slippery Surface, Overland and Wade Mode, which raises the ride height and pressurizes the battery pack for shallow water crossings. Trailer mode stores towing load details and works with an integrated trailer brake controller. Full Self-Driving (Supervised) is available as a $99 monthly subscription after a one-month trial, and Tesla stresses that it requires active driver supervision and does not make the truck autonomous. Sentry Mode monitors the truck while it is parked and can sound an alarm if it detects a threat. Accessories on Tesla's shop include crossbars rated for 200 pounds, a cargo divider, mud flaps, an off-road lightbar and a tailgate ramp rated for 750 pounds of gear per ramp.
Safety & ADAS
The Cybertruck holds an overall five-star safety rating from NHTSA, and Tesla says the truck recorded the lowest probability of rollover of any truck the agency has tested. Forward Collision Warning, Automatic Emergency Braking and Lane Departure Avoidance come standard, and Blind Spot Monitoring uses illuminated warning lights and on-screen visualizations. Full Self-Driving (Supervised) is an optional Level 2 driver-assistance system, so the driver remains responsible at all times. Reliability and recall history deserve a factual mention. In March 2025 Tesla recalled 46,096 Cybertrucks because an exterior cant-rail trim panel could detach. In October 2025 a software recall covering 63,619 trucks addressed front parking lamps that could exceed the legal brightness limit (NHTSA campaign 25V699). In May 2026 Tesla recalled 173 trucks fitted with 18-inch steel wheels after cracks could form in the brake-rotor stud holes, with rotors, hubs and lug nuts replaced free of charge. Separately, in the summer of 2026 Tesla acknowledged a reliability problem with the Power Conversion System on early trucks, extending that component's warranty to 8 years or 150,000 miles on 2024 and 2025 models, while 2026 trucks carry a 7-year or 70,000-mile warranty on it.

Pricing & Availability
Tesla's US configurator lists the Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive at $74,990, the Premium All-Wheel Drive at $84,990 and the Cyberbeast at $99,990, before taxes and fees, and Tesla was advertising a lease from $1,129 per month on its Cybertruck page. The price history is unusually busy. In February 2026 Tesla cut the Cyberbeast from $114,990 to $99,990 and launched a Dual Motor AWD at $59,990, a price Elon Musk described as a limited-time offer for about 10 days. The truck moved to $69,990 in March and then to $74,990 on August 25, 2026, the same day the Premium rose from $79,990 to $84,990. The federal EV tax credit no longer applies: it expired for vehicles acquired after September 30, 2025, and Tesla's own pages now promote business tax deductions instead, so buyers should check their own eligibility with a tax professional. The Cybertruck is sold in the United States, Canada and Mexico, and deliveries began in South Korea on November 27, 2025 and in the United Arab Emirates in January 2026. Configurators also opened for Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordan and Israel in January 2026, but Europe remains without sales.
How It Compares
The Cybertruck has no true same-segment rival among the electrified vehicles freshmotors covers, since our catalog skews heavily toward Chinese EVs, plug-in hybrids and range-extender models, and American full-size electric pickups are not part of it. So this is a value contrast rather than a cross-shop. At almost exactly the Cyberbeast's $99,990, the Genesis GV90 offers 657 hp and 500 km of range in a luxury SUV, so the Tesla brings roughly 190 more horsepower and a similar range, but with a 6-foot bed and 11,000 lb of towing that the SUV cannot match. At the Premium's $84,990, the NIO ES9 costs about $7,000 less, makes 650 hp and is rated at 600 km, though its range figure comes from a different test cycle than the EPA's. The most striking contrast is the Jetour F700, a 904 hp plug-in hybrid pickup listed at $53,900 with a combined range of 1,300 km, but it is a Chinese-market price, the truck is not sold in the US, and its numbers come from a different powertrain and test cycle. None of these three is a real alternative for an American truck buyer, but together they show how much power and range a Chinese-market buyer gets per dollar compared with the Cybertruck's US pricing.
- Cyberbeast delivers 845 hp and a 2.6-second 0-60 mph time, with 11,000 lb of towing on the Premium and Cyberbeast trims
- 325 kW Supercharging and access to Tesla's network, plus Powershare for up to 11.5 kW of home backup power
- Strong utility: 6-foot by 4-foot bed, up to 2,500 lb payload, lockable covered bed and outlets in the bed and cabin
- Prices rose $5,000 on two trims in August 2026, and the entry Dual Motor now costs $15,000 more than its brief February launch price
- Recall history and the Power Conversion System warranty extension on early trucks weigh on long-term reliability confidence
The 2026 Tesla Cybertruck is for buyers who want a genuinely different electric truck and value speed, towing and Powershare's backup power more than conventional looks or a low price. The Premium AWD at $84,990 is the sensible center of the range, adding air suspension, 11,000 lb of towing and a proper covered bed, while the Cyberbeast is a $15,000 step up that is really about the 2.6-second sprint. The Dual Motor is the cheapest way in, but its 7,500 lb tow rating and fixed ride height make it the most basic of the three. The trade-offs are a price that has risen by $15,000 in six months on the entry trim, a 325-mile EPA range that is modest for such a large 123 kWh pack, and a recall and warranty record that reflects a truck still maturing. Recommended for buyers who want the most capable and distinctive electric pickup on sale today and are comfortable with Tesla's ownership model.
