The Cybertruck’s design has been a topic of much discussion. Now that the production model is being delivered, we can see that it closely resembles the truck announced in 2019. It features a 30X cold-rolled stainless steel body to resist dents and rust. The truck boasts a 6.5-foot cargo box referred to as a “vault” by Tesla.
Interior

The Cybertruck’s interior closely resembles the prototype, with a few tweaks. It includes a spacious storage bin between the two armrests and a large 17-inch display for infotainment purposes. The interior maintains the angular design language but provides a comfortable feel. The second row of seats adds three seats, allowing for a total of five occupants.
Specs
The Cybertruck offers different versions with varying levels of performance. The entry-level variant is equipped with a single rear-wheel drive motor, achieving 0-60 mph in 6.5 seconds and offering approximately 250 miles of range. The midrange version features dual motors for all-wheel drive, an 11,000-pound towing capacity, 0-60 mph in 4.1 seconds, and around 340 miles of range. The flagship triple-motor model can tow 11,000 pounds, accelerate from 0-60 mph in 2.6 seconds, and offers approximately 320 miles of range. The truck’s ground clearance reaches up to 16 inches, thanks to the standard adaptive air suspension.

Competitors
The Ford F-150 Lightning is the Cybertruck’s main competition. While the Cybertruck offers a unique design, the Lightning appeals to those who prefer a more traditional electric truck. The F-150 Lightning starts at around $60,000, similar to the base model of the Cybertruck. Additionally, the Rivian R1T is another competitor with a longer range starting at 270 miles but a higher starting price of $73,000.
