Tesla Slashes Cybertruck Price to $59,990 in Limited 10-Day Promotion

Tesla is launching a time-limited pricing promotion on its Cybertruck, offering the dual motor all-wheel-drive variant at $59,990 for a 10-day window. According to CEO Elon Musk, the company will use demand response during this promotional period to establish a permanent pricing strategy going forward.

The promotional pricing arrives amid a notable contraction in Cybertruck sales. The electric vehicle saw deliveries fall to 20,237 units in 2025, representing a 49% decline compared to the 39,965 units delivered in 2024. The sharp year-over-year decrease has prompted Tesla to reassess its pricing strategy for the polarizing vehicle segment.

Musk's comments suggest Tesla will calibrate its post-promotional pricing based on consumer response at the $59,990 price point. This demand-responsive approach indicates the company is testing price sensitivity to identify an optimal balance between sales volume and margins for the Cybertruck, which has faced production challenges and competitive pressures since its late 2023 market entry.
