Tesla slashes Cybertruck prices as it tries to move (unpainted) metal
Key Points:
- Tesla has reduced Cybertruck prices, with the tri-motor "Cyberbeast" now $15,000 cheaper at $99,990, though it loses some features like free supercharging and Full Self-Driving (FSD).
- A new entry-level dual-motor model is introduced at $59,990, offering a 325-mile range and 0–60 mph in 4.1 seconds, matching the performance of the more expensive $79,990 version but with reduced towing and cargo capacity.
- Cost-cutting measures in the new base model include steel springs instead of air suspension, textile seats without ventilation or heating in the second row, fewer speakers, and no active noise cancellation.
