How much will the Tesla Cybertruck cost?

The original $39,900 price tag seems unlikely – but how much will users have to pay in 2023?

It's a brilliant time to be a fan of the best EVs right now. Technology has progressed a lot in recent times, with more and more brands bringing top tech and sleek design to the table.

Then, there's Tesla. Specifically, we're talking about the Tesla Cybertruck today, complete with the kind of design credentials you'd see scrawled in crayon and attached to the fridge, somewhere behind the calendar and the menu for the local Chinese.

Safe to say, it's an unorthodox design. But hey, it's the brain child of Elon Musk, and unorthodox seems to be the order of the day in that camp, so who am I to judge.

The design isn't the most controversial part of the Cybertruck right now, though. There are big question marks hanging over the price tag it will be launched at.

So the question is, does that still represent good value? And ultimately, the answer to that is yes. Look, I'm no Tesla fanboy – and I'm certainly not going dewy-eyed at the pictures of the Cybertruck – but this is undoubtedly a good proposition.

Tesla suggest that the Cybertruck will be capable of up to 500 miles of range, while managing a 0-60 time of under three seconds. That's impressive anyway, but getting those stats from a car with a 3,500 pound payload and 14,000 pounds of towing capability is insane.

Then there's the build of the Cybertruck. The Ultra-Hard 30X Cold-Rolled stainless steel exoskeleton should offer brilliant safety for users. It's even paired with Tesla's Armor Glass.

We won't have to wait too long for concrete details, either. The launch event for the new car is set to take place on the 30th of November, where pricing will be confirmed and we should get a good look at the truck.
