The Tesla Cybertruck is now cheaper than ever in the US as the electric vehicle (EV) maker looks to boost sales of one of its slowest-selling models, which is still not sold in Australia after sales plunged 48 per cent in 2025.
The starting price of the entry-level dual-motor, all-wheel drive Cybertruck model has been reduced by a significant US$20,000 (A$28,290) to US$59,990 (A$84,857).
That makes it the cheapest price for a Cybertruck since initial customer deliveries in late 2023 – when the range started at $60,990 (AUD86,298) – and is $10,000 (AUD14,141) below the rear-wheel drive model that was discontinued late last year.

The price cut also saw Tesla drop the flagship Cyberbeast from US$114,990 (A$162,605) to US$99,990 (A$141,395), seemingly axing the Luxe package that was introduced on the top model last August and coincided with a US$15,000 (A$21,211) price increase.
Accordingly ReutersTesla CEO Elon Musk responded to a user on the social platform X – formerly Twitter – saying that the prices were only available for 10 days.
The outlet said Tesla has not yet officially confirmed whether the price is a limited-time offer or the new standard price.
The price cut comes after just 20,237 Cybertrucks were sold in 2025, down from 38,965 last year Kelley Blue Book Data.
That means the Cybertruck accounted for just 1.2 percent of the brand’s 1,636,129 vehicles delivered worldwide in 2025, while the Model Y – the world’s best-selling electric vehicle – along with the Model 3 accounted for 97 percent with 1,585,279 deliveries.
2025 was the second year in a row that Tesla reported a decline in sales.
The automaker was overtaken by BYD as the world’s best-selling electric vehicle brand in 2025. The Chinese company sold 2.26 million electric vehicles, the remaining 4.6 million vehicles sold were plug-in hybrid vehicles.
In Australia, Tesla recorded 28,856 deliveries in 2025, 24.8 percent less than the previous year (38,347).
More than three-quarters of Tesla’s sales in Australia were of the Model Y, which is once again the country’s best-selling electric vehicle despite the overall sales decline.
However, the reduced Cybertruck price does little to strengthen the case for selling the wild-looking pickup in Australia, as production is still limited to left-hand drive vehicles.
This is despite the local arm importing one in 2025 and displaying it at dealerships and auto shows across the country to explore a business model for local sales.
