TESLA TRUCK PRICE WINDOWS
Tesla was the first automaker to sell 200,000 EVs, triggering the phaseout back in 2018.īut the legislation would restrict eligibility for the credits to EVs priced no higher than $55,000 for new cars and $80,000 for pickups and SUVs - which means Tesla will need to price the Cybertruck accordingly if it’s to be eligible.Tesla's highly anticipated unveiling of its futuristic pickup truck suffered a setback after its "armoured glass" windows shattered during a demonstration.ĭuring the tightly choreographed unveiling of the Cybertruck to cheering fans on Thursday, Tesla boss Elon Musk had taken a stab at the design, power and durability of mainstream trucks, only to be shaken when his boast about his new truck's windows backfired. And the company caught a bit of good news when it was revealed that the new climate deal put forward by Senate Democrats, if passed, would eliminate the cap of 200,000 vehicles sold to trigger a phaseout of the $7,500 tax credit. Meanwhile, Tesla has recently raised prices (again) for its non-vaporware lineup of EVs - except for the Model 3. The number has kept growing over the last year, and it is now estimated to be close to 1.5 million reservations. A crowdsourced Cybertruck reservation tally by the Cybertruck forum with over 28,000 entries put reservations at over 1 million back in May 2021, according to Electrek. The last number reported - 650,000 - was from June 2020, but assumedly it has grown since then. Is Tesla still set on making those three versions? Who knows?Īnother unanswered question is the number of reservations Tesla currently has on file. Is Tesla still set on making those three versions? Who knows? Will it actually go into production in the middle of 2023? “Reply hazy, try again.” Triple motor all-wheel drive with 500 miles of range, 14,000-pound towing capacity, and zero to 60mph in under 2.9 seconds for $69,900.
Dual motor all-wheel drive with 300 miles of range, 10,000-pound towing capacity, and zero to 60mph in under 4.5 seconds for $49,900.Single motor rear-wheel drive with 250 miles of range, 7,500-pound towing capacity, and zero to 60mph capabilities in under 6.5 seconds for $39,900.In 2019, Tesla said it would make three versions of the Cybertruck: Musk didn’t divulge any details beyond noting that the original price would not be the same.In the meantime, competitors like Ford and Rivian have launched their own electric pickups, with Ford saying that it plans to make 150,000 F-150 Lightnings by 2023. But by August 2021, the company announced a delay until 2022 - and then later to “hopefully” 2023. Production was originally supposed to start in late 2021. Musk said that the Cybertruck would be in volume production by “the middle of next year” - but of course, that has been a shifting target, too. “I hate to give a little bit of bad news,” he added, before going on to hype the Cybertruck as “one hell of a product” and a “damn fine machine.” “I hate to give a little bit of bad news”
