The Tesla Cybertruck appeared like something from a video game when it was first unveiled in 2019. After four years, the production version of the car is now available, and Tesla has begun to provide more detailed information about it.
Prior to the end of 2023, Tesla made vague mentions of limited Cybertruck deliveries, with full-scale production starting in 2024. Customers have finally gotten their Cybertruck delivery during a live event in Austin, just as predicted.
Thus, once it is finally ready, the 2024 Tesla Cybertruck will have to contend with pickup trucks such as the Ford F-150 Lightning, Rivian R1-T, Hummer EV, forthcoming electric Chevrolet Silverado, and a few more EV companies.
Tesla Cybertruck: Standard Rear-Wheel Drive And Optional All-Wheel-Drive
Rear-wheel drive with a single motor, all-wheel drive with dual motors, and all-wheel drive with tri-motors (also known as the Cyberbeast), which is how Tesla claims the 2024 Cybertruck will demonstrate its prowess in the EV world and embarrass other models even in drag races.

All Cybertruck variants have the same exterior dimensions, bulletproof exterior, and shatter-resistant glass despite having different drivetrain configurations. The dimensions of each Cybertruck are 95 inches wide by 223.7 inches long by 70.5 inches high (however variants with air suspension will allow for a little amount of height adjustment).
The bed area of the Cybertruck is 6 feet long and 4 feet broad. It has one of the greatest payload capacities for an electric pickup truck, holding up to 2,500 pounds of freight. In order to put things in perspective, the payload capacity indicates that the Cybertruck can transport 740 pounds more than the Rivian R1T, which has a maximum capacity of 1,760 pounds, and it exceeds the 2,235-pound payload capacity of the Ford F-150 Lightning. In contrast, the GMC Hummer EV’s bed area is limited to 1,300 pounds of payload capacity.
The Tesla Cybertruck can tow just as much weight. The single-motor rear-drive models can only tow 7,500 pounds, but the dual-motor and tri-motor AWD versions can tow an incredible 11,000 pounds.
The 2024 Tesla Cybertruck’s towing capacity is compared to that of other electric pickups.
| Model | Tesla Cybertruck | Ford F-150 Lightning | Rivian R1T |
| Maximum Towing Capacity | 11,000 lbs. | 10,000 lbs. | 11,000 lbs. |
| Maximum Payload Capacity | 2,500 lbs. | 2,235 lbs. | 1,760 |
Tesla Cybertruck: Offers A Range Of Up To 340 Miles When Driving
Depending on the drive type, the 2024 Tesla Cybertruck can travel between 250 and 340 miles on a single charge. With a full charge, the single-motor RWD vehicles can travel 250 miles, while the tri-motor Cyberbeast variation can travel 320 miles.

AWD models with dual motors have a 340-mile driving range on a single charge. But, Tesla has a $16,000 range extender option that may increase range from 340 miles to 470 miles by an additional 130 miles. However, it’s important to remember that selecting this range extender will mean giving up one-third of the bed’s length.
Tesla Cybertruck: Performance and Range of Cybertruck Compared to Competitors
| Specifications | 2025 Tesla Cybertruck Single-Motor | 2024 Tesla Cybertruck Dual-Motor | 2024 Tesla Cybertruck Tri-Motor |

| 0-60 MPH | 6.5 seconds | 4.1 seconds | 2.6 seconds |
| Top Speed | 112 mph | 112 mph | 130 mph |
Power is also quite significant. It has been reported that the dual motor versions have a maximum speed of 112 mph and a power output of 600 horsepower and 7,435 lb-ft of torque. In contrast, the tri-motor Tesla Cybertruck models have an incredible 8,45 horsepower, 10,296 lb-ft of torque, and a top speed of 130 mph.
With up to 17.44 inches of ground clearance, 35-inch all-terrain tires, locking differentials, four-wheel steering, rear torque vectoring, and steer-by-wire technology for improved handling, the Tesla Cybertruck also looks to be an off-road capable vehicle.
Regarding charging, the new Cybertruck has a maximum charging capacity of 250 kW. In just fifteen minutes, dual-motor AWD vehicles will be able to add 136 miles. Although it will move more slowly, the tri-motor Cyberbeast will cover an additional 128 miles in just 15 minutes.
Tesla Cybertruck: Polygonal Interior With A Large 18.5-Inch Touchscreen
The 2024 Tesla Cybertruck’s interior has a stylish polygonal design that goes well with its distinctive look. Inside is a roomy cabin with accentuated lighting, a minimalist atmosphere, and other well-thought-out design elements. The Cybertruck’s technological features are likewise quite sophisticated, providing a variety of state-of-the-art functions for an improved driving experience.
Wireless device chargers, 65W USB-C connections, three 120V/240V outlets, a 15-speaker sound system with two subwoofers and distributed amplifiers, and an expansive 18.5-inch center touchscreen display are all included.
A high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter fitted to the 2024 Tesla Cybertruck efficiently collects and retains 99.97 percent of microscopic particles, such as pollen and other materials, that may inadvertently enter the vehicle from the outside. The Cybertruck’s sophisticated filtration technology keeps the air inside clean and pure, providing better air quality for its occupants.
The Cybertruck Has A Starting MSRP Of $60,990
The Tesla Cybertruck has a $60,990 starting price for the base rear-wheel-drive version, which is significantly higher than the initial price of $39,900 announced in 2019. However, Tesla estimates that after factoring in potential savings, the base price can be reduced to $49,890.
Tesla Cybertruck Pricing
