Tesla has rolled out a new dual-motor all-wheel-drive Cybertruck trim in the United States with a starting price of $59,990. The company positions it as the most affordable Cybertruck yet.
The new AWD Cybertruck delivers an estimated 325 miles of range on a full charge. It accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in a claimed 4.1 seconds, so it still sits in performance truck territory rather than basic work truck territory. Towing capacity is listed at 7,500 lb, which is lower than the top trims but still aimed at trailers, equipment and recreational use.
The vehicle uses a dual-motor all-wheel-drive setup with mechanical locking differentials at the front and rear. That hardware targets traction on loose or uneven surfaces. Curb weight comes in at 6,537 lb, and the truck rides on 18-inch wheels with all-season tires, which gives it a more practical stance than some high-performance versions.
Tesla keeps the powered bed layout that many buyers look for. The truck’s composite bed includes a motorized tonneau cover and bed outlets: two 120-volt sockets and one 240-volt outlet. So owners can plug in tools, camping gear or backup home devices directly from the truck.
Charging, chassis and suspension
On the charging side, Tesla lists a peak DC fast charging rate of up to 325 kW. That figure sits slightly below the higher trim level, yet it still targets relatively short stops on long trips when paired with the company’s fast-charging network.
Underneath, this new trim makes one of the clearest trade-offs. Instead of the adaptive air suspension used on the Premium AWD and Cyberbeast, Tesla fits a coil spring setup with adaptive damping.
Ground clearance is listed at 10 inches. Drivers lose height adjustment, so the truck cannot be raised for off-road driving or lowered for easier loading in the same way as the top trims.
Interior changes and technology
Inside the cabin, the new model steps back from the more upscale finish of the Premium AWD. The interior uses a dark grey textile material that the company calls durable and practical. The main 18.5-inch center display remains in place and continues to handle most vehicle controls and media, so the core interface does not change.
There is no 9-inch rear display in this trim. Rear passengers still have seating but lose that dedicated screen for climate and entertainment. The audio system drops from a 15-speaker setup with active noise control to a simpler 7-speaker system, and rear heated seats are removed.
The front console also loses some ambient lighting elements. Inside the cabin, there are no 120-volt outlets; all AC outlets are now in the bed.
With this launch, Tesla’s Cybertruck range now forms a clearer ladder. At the base sits the new Dual Motor AWD at $59,990. Above it is the Premium Dual Motor AWD at about $79,990. At the top is the tri-motor Cyberbeast at about $99,990 after a recent price cut.
Lineup and price ladder
The Premium AWD keeps the adaptive air suspension, an 11,000 lb towing rating, upgraded interior materials, a larger audio package and the rear display. The Cyberbeast adds stronger performance claims, including a 0–60 mph time near 2.6 seconds, and retains the higher towing figures.
Earlier, Tesla had tried a cheaper rear-wheel-drive Cybertruck near $60,990. That version lacked features such as the powered tonneau cover and bed outlets, and many potential buyers criticized it for cutting into core truck utility. The model later disappeared from the order page.
The new AWD trim takes a different approach. It keeps dual-motor all-wheel drive, steer-by-wire, four-wheel steering, bed outlets and the powered tonneau cover, yet trims suspension complexity and comfort features.
When Tesla first revealed the Cybertruck in 2019, the company talked about a dual-motor version at $49,990. That price never made it to production, but the current $59,990 figure sits closer once several years of inflation are factored in.
Tesla lists deliveries of the new AWD Cybertruck starting around mid-2026 in the United States. The company has already used price cuts and new trims across its range, including the Model Y, to support demand.
