After multiple years of delays, it looks like the Cybertruck is finally on its way to consumers.

      It wouldn’t be reasonable to expect the 40k price after the crazy inflation we’ve seen

      What I want to know is how much higher is it after taking inflation into account…

      Edit: looked it up. 40k in 2019 is 47.7k today. 40k in 2021 the planned release day/price, in 2023 is 45k. The 45k number probably makes the most sense. That’s assuming the random site I used is anywhere near correct.

        I would be amazed if it sells for anywhere near 40. I bet it launches at closer to 60.

          The F-150 EV starts at $60k and Tesla views themselves as a luxury brand, so yeah no way it’s less than $70k

          Somewhere in the 60-70k range is probably where it’ll land ya.

          That’d be 15-25k more after inflation (instead of 20-30k more)

          Edit: at least it should fully qualify for the 7500 federal rebate since it uses the 4680 cells. Was reading the m3 might lose the full rebate in 2024
