I mean, the Cybertruck starts at $39K, so it's right in line with other trucks available on the market in the U.S. They haven't really chosen a luxury price point. They clearly intend to mass market this thing. Pick-up trucks aren't vulgar, they're simply practical and useful.
- zlsa 3y agoIt has been a while since they've talked about that price, and I would not expect it to be anywhere near that price point today, given <gestures at everything>.
- chrisco255 3y agoThey might jack it up by $10K or so but that still puts it in line with other passenger trucks. An F150 dual cab Lariat starts at $57K. Dual cab Tacomas with four wheel drive run at least $38K, but if you want leather seats and a nicer trim like Teslas come with, that typically runs $48K or more.
- hamburglar 3y agoThere is no chance a cybertruck is going to start at a mere $10k over original base price. My prediction is that it’ll “start at” $70k for the one-motor version, but that won’t be available for over a year. The 2 and 3 motor builds will be prioritized and they will cost $90k+
- FirmwareBurner 3y ago>There is no chance a cybertruck is going to start at a mere $10k over original base price. My opinion as well. There's no way Tesla can deliver everything, or at least most of what they promised about the Cybertruck at that price point, considering the manufacturing challenges of that thing.
- heleninboodler 3y agoIn 2019, the target starting price was ~$40k. Given inflation and other factors that have wildly increased prices, as well as it more and more sounding like a "halo" vehicle, as well as the supply being a tiny fraction of demand, I'd be surprised if the starting price wasn't literally double that $40k. I guess we'll see soon.
