Overview
- Tesla removed the single‑motor rear‑wheel‑drive Long Range Cybertruck from its U.S. website roughly five to six months after deliveries began.
- The all‑wheel‑drive version now serves as the base model at $72,490 after the federal credit, or $79,990 before incentives, according to Tesla’s site.
- The discontinued trim launched at $69,990 and traded lower cost for missing features such as adaptive air suspension and a rear infotainment display, along with reduced towing and payload ratings.
- Cox Automotive reported 4,306 Cybertruck sales in Q2 2025, about a 50% year‑over‑year decline, with 10,712 sold year to date through mid‑year.
- Tesla did not provide a reason for the lineup change, as analysts highlight softening demand and the pending expiration of the federal EV credit as headwinds.
