With dubstep as the soundtrack and neon lighting as the backdrop, Elon Musk handed the first Cybertrucks over to a select group of customers that included Reddit co-founder and VC fund Seven Seven Six founder Alexis Ohanian and Trousdale Ventures founder and CEO Phillip Sarofim.<\/p>\n
The live streamed portion of the Tesla Cybertruck delivery event<\/a> was a short affair \u2014 around 30 minutes. But the event still had all the traditional trappings one has come to expect from Tesla: the pomp and pumpy music, VIP guests and of course, Musk.<\/p>\n The Tesla Cybertruck deliveries come at least six years since Musk first tweeted about building a truck and four years since he debuted the futuristic-looking picup.<\/p>\n Looking beyond some of the flashier features \u2014 it\u2019s bullet proof \u2014 here\u2019s everything we know so far.<\/span><\/p>\n Image Credits:<\/strong> Tesla\/screenshot<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The Tesla Cybertruck will eventually be available in three configurations.<\/p>\n The cheapest of the batch, a rear-wheel version with 250 miles of range, a 6.9-second zero to 60 miles per hour acceleration rate and a $60,990 base price, won\u2019t be available until 2025. That leaves an all-wheel version and the so-called Cyberbeast.<\/p>\n The all-wheel drive variant has an estimated 341-mile range and $79,990 starting price. The Cyberbeast comes with an estimated 320-mile range model with 845 horsepower that can travel 0 to 60 miles per hour in 2.6 seconds, hit a top speed of 130 mph, and comes with estimated $99,990 price tag. Both of these versions have a towing capacity of 11,000 pounds.<\/p>\n Those numbers differ from the original specs first shared by Musk at the Cybertruck debut event<\/a> in 2019. The company was planning on three variants, but the prices, towing and range have since changed. <\/span>In 2019, the company planned for its cheapest version to cost $39,900, have a towing capacity of 7,500 pounds and more than 250 miles of range. The middle version was slated to be a dual-motor all-wheel drive priced at $49,900, have a towing capacity of more than 10,000 pounds and be able to travel more than 300 miles on a single charge. The third version was supposed to have three electric motors and all-wheel drive, a towing capacity of 14,000 pounds and battery range of more than 500 miles. That version, known as \u201ctri motor,\u201d is priced at $69,900.<\/span><\/p>\n Today, all of the production Cybertrucks have 35-inch wheels, a six-foot by four-foot composite truck bed, a hidden gear locker and a front trunk. The company says that in all there is 67 cubic feet of lockable storage and has a maximum payload of 2,500 pounds.<\/p>\n The exterior includes armored glass that is supposed to resist the imp[act of a baseball at 70 mph or class 4 hail. Testing the glass didn\u2019t work so well back in 2019,<\/a> with it actually shattering. This time, chief designer Franz Von Holzhausen, successfully threw a baseball at the vehicle\u2019s window without breaking it.<\/p>\n The Cybertruck also comes equipped with an 800-volt electrical architecture for ultra fast charging and electronically adaptive air suspension that lets allows for up to 17 inches of clearance, if needed.<\/p>\nThree versions<\/h2>\n
