Tesla Introduces Leasing Option for Cybertruck Starting at $999 Monthly
The new leasing plan aims to boost demand as Tesla opens Cybertruck orders to all customers, bypassing reservation requirements.
- Tesla's Cybertruck is now available for lease with monthly payments starting at $999, requiring a $7,500 down payment.
- The leasing option provides access to a $7,500 federal tax credit, which is not available for direct purchases due to recent regulatory changes.
- Tesla's move to offer leases comes as the company exhausts its backlog of Cybertruck reservations, now allowing immediate orders.
- The Cybertruck has quickly become the third best-selling electric vehicle in the U.S., with production peaking at 1,300 units per week.
- Leasing may appeal to customers wary of the Cybertruck's depreciation, offering a fixed-cost alternative to outright purchase.
