Same price as discontinued rwd with less features. Should sell?

Lon3Wo1f 2026-02-20 04:21

Tonneau and awd vs rwd is less features?

markbraggs 2026-02-20 04:28

I think they meant the previous RWD had less features it was just worded weirdly

brandinimo 2026-02-20 04:30

Tempting.

Hoss--Bonaventure 2026-02-20 04:32

Not the same price. This one is $10k cheaper than the long-range RWD was.

Itsnotadrone 2026-02-20 04:38

Do it you’ll be glad you did

GO__NAVY 2026-02-20 04:45

Throw some steelies and we will talk.

Johnglennspace 2026-02-20 04:52

Those are steelies

SerennialFellow 2026-02-20 05:03

Wow poverty spec is expensive still looks the part thought

No thanks. Cyber SUV.

mars_wun 2026-02-20 05:27

Hell no, at that price why not go for an R1T

ParticularNew5321 2026-02-20 05:28

Ugliest thing I've ever seen.

soscribbly 2026-02-20 05:36

Because a standard R1T starts in the 70s?

soscribbly 2026-02-20 05:36

No light bar tail light :/

KobeBeaf 2026-02-20 05:45

Wow almost down to the price projected when I preordered, still pass

SUPER-NIINTENDO 2026-02-20 05:51

Do you comment things to impress other internet people so you feel like you fit in?

RedElmo65 2026-02-20 05:55

I’m waiting for the $39k version as promised.

ZombieManilow 2026-02-20 06:14

Many such cases on Reddit. Show them the doll so they can point out where Elon hurt them.

sevargmas 2026-02-20 06:18

Show me the lie.

Deil_Grist 2026-02-20 06:20

Nice refrigerator. Where's the truck?

ZombieManilow 2026-02-20 06:21

A friend got an X with 22” wheels and was surprised when he realized my X with normal 20” wheels had longer range. Very curious whether/how much the smaller wheels on this one are contributing to the range.

ZombieManilow 2026-02-20 06:25

I hear you. As someone without a daily commute I can absolutely get by with 200 miles of range. I’m not sure I’d want RWD only, though.

Fkngtired 2026-02-20 06:34

As a Tesla owner I agree. The truck is ugly and unfortunate. I would pay for a regular looking pick up or SUV with Tesla’s technology. Just a shame the company is not moving in that direction.

derekneiladams 2026-02-20 06:38

Adjust for inflation from when it was announced et voila.

ZombieManilow 2026-02-20 06:44

Good catch. They don’t mention that one in the X announcement.

gr4one 2026-02-20 06:58

still ugly as ever

Zebra4776 2026-02-20 07:09

I'm sure this one will sell /s

frostrogue117 2026-02-20 07:11

Too bad it still looks like a Cybertruck

gwwwhhhaaattt 2026-02-20 07:11

Throw that front bench in

Present-Ad-9598 2026-02-20 07:20

Better than every other truck that looks like every other truck

Present-Ad-9598 2026-02-20 07:20

The only true “poverty spec” in my opinion is the Standard Model Y

SerennialFellow 2026-02-20 07:24

That one was cruel. They put a water bucket up front

Otherwise_Rub_4557 2026-02-20 08:19

What is the warranty? Throw a sander in the back and plow with it.

Present-Ad-9598 2026-02-20 08:40

Okay you lost me. What?

retrorays 2026-02-20 08:57

still f-ugly and impractical.

NerdyGuy117 2026-02-20 09:02

Price. Also the Cybertruck is a safer vehicle.

MightOk5012 2026-02-20 09:22

You own one?

feurie 2026-02-20 09:33

So? The utility as a truck is still there.

feurie 2026-02-20 09:34

Now adjust for inflation. This is cheaper than the $50,000 AWD trim announced.

feurie 2026-02-20 09:35

Because this is larger, more capable, and from a company with the most experience making EVs

feurie 2026-02-20 09:36

How is it poverty spec? Still AWD and same range. It’s lost seat materials, cooled seats, and speakers. It’s very competitive for a $50,000 AWD truck.

TheRuggedHamster 2026-02-20 09:44

Yeah that’s the thing. I can’t quite love the design and wouldn’t get one but it very comfortably seats 5 large adults, has a pickup box. Suspension you can raise and lower and even the regular version is fast and fun to drive, drives itself if you’re tired, you can charge it the same way you charge your phone etc etc its an insane vehicle for the amount of hate it gets

TheSpivack 2026-02-20 10:01

That's what happens when it looks like the truck was designed by Homer Simpson.

sim16 2026-02-20 10:25

Good luck with that, whipping a dead horse there.

damonlebeouf 2026-02-20 10:38

lol wut

RedElmo65 2026-02-20 11:05

Doesn’t feel cheaper.

RedElmo65 2026-02-20 11:07

Adjusted for U.S. inflation from 2019 to 2026, $39,000 in 2019 has roughly the same buying power as about $48,700

LateMouse2020 2026-02-20 11:24

Fsd

Callierhino 2026-02-20 11:26

They don't really make for good trucks, the load bin is really unpractical with those slanted sides

Callierhino 2026-02-20 11:28

behind the dumpster with windows, why do they put windows in a dumpster oh.....

GOA_AMD65 2026-02-20 11:34

That’s the only reason I want one. Well that and it’s a Tesla. I’m seriously considering this as my next EV.

BeeBee-FooQuan 2026-02-20 11:41

Maybe try NOT supporting “overnight inflation”? The prices would crash if people would stop supporting corporations squeezing every nickel out of every customer. Lots of people spitting on their own buttholes.

dannyvegas 2026-02-20 12:02

Yes. Would love to see a rugged SUV with good ground clearance. The Y is nice but is still more of a car than a SUV. I’m tempted by the cybertruck I just don’t need an 19’ long truck.

dannyvegas 2026-02-20 12:10

turns out it’s actually a 60k truck.

ObeseSnake 2026-02-20 12:15

I think that was removed on the now canceled RWD version too.

ObeseSnake 2026-02-20 12:15

We are talking now since those are steelies. Can I send you my refer code? /s

ObeseSnake 2026-02-20 12:17

4 years or 50,000 miles for basic bumper-to-bumper Battery & drive unit 8 years or 150,000 miles, whichever comes first, with minimum 70% retention of Battery capacity over the warranty period.

ricgreen1 2026-02-20 12:24

New price, still ugly.

slow__rush 2026-02-20 12:25

Its not even a truck

CousinEddysMotorHome 2026-02-20 12:34

Same!

ZombieManilow 2026-02-20 12:39

Right? That’s the main reason I never followed through with my reservation. I need to seat 6, not 5.

eireannach_ 2026-02-20 12:51

They're notorious for service issues. Amazon is in control of the company.

SteedOfTheDeid 2026-02-20 12:57

Man bummer about the gimped audio system

Maverlck 2026-02-20 13:12

I need 3 real rows. Y and X are a joke

VQV37 2026-02-20 13:23

Still a bit over priced compared to the original goal price but that's not too bad the real issue is that the range just isn't what they offered on the beginning. 55k plus 450miles then. We are talking. Still an ugly and tasteless car but at least it's. Compelling care.

nucl3ar0ne 2026-02-20 13:39

Rivian...

dannyvegas 2026-02-20 13:40

Does it have FSD?

nucl3ar0ne 2026-02-20 13:42

Not as comprehensive but also significantly cheaper.

dannyvegas 2026-02-20 14:11

Yeah. that's really my main driver (pun intended) to look at an EV. Tesla seems to really be the hands down technology leader here by a very wide margin. Not really interested in Rivian.

yetiflask 2026-02-20 14:16

If only they had a comparable price in Canada, I'll be all over this bitch. That'd be about 80k CAD, give or take. I'd lease the hell out of it. DO IT, TSLA!

MillenialIndustry 2026-02-20 14:22

Yeah... though the only problem with that deal is you get a Cybertruck

relevant__comment 2026-02-20 14:36

Looks like all they did was change the wheel covers…

For the wrong reason. I'm looking to see what the dumbass looks like.

Str8Nirvana 2026-02-20 16:23

EDS

Buschfan08 2026-02-20 16:26

Uhh no they're not? They just made an exclusive deal to buy their vans which has since ended.

br0wntree 2026-02-20 16:35

It really isn't great as a truck if you want to do more serious truck things. However, I think it is still a great vehicle with a ton of utility for 90% of truck owners who never actually fully utilize their truck's capability anyway. Frankly most trucks are used as giant metal toys and I think that is perfectly fine as long as you embrace it which I think the cybertruck does.

br0wntree 2026-02-20 16:40

Amazon is the largest shareholder.

InterstellarChange 2026-02-20 16:51

Inflation doesn't exist in a bubble. 2019 people had a lot more buying power than today. Inflation also means everything has gone up and wages are flat with inflation, so all the rising costs of food,services,housing,medical, gas & power that have risen far beyond the rate of inflation wipe out any gains in income growth. Restaurant costs before tip has gone up 35% since 2019. Starting couple avg down payment on a home went from 58% of their total income in 2019 to 70% today. Unless you're making 30-40% more than you did in 2019, you have far less buying power than you did in 2019.

InterstellarChange 2026-02-20 16:53

Now adjust your life for inflation and cost of living. Are you making 30% more today than 2019?

SerennialFellow 2026-02-20 17:20

You are making light of the suspension, it affects towability and load ability

Buschfan08 2026-02-20 17:42

They still do not have legal control of the company. That doesn't matter.

Cheeko914 2026-02-20 17:49

It is, by definition, a truck.

br0wntree 2026-02-20 17:55

No single person/entity does but due to its significant ownership Amazon has a lot of influence. My point with my comment was more that Amazon and Rivian’s relationship isn’t just a one-time deal to purchase vans. Amazon has bet on the future of the company as a whole.

PositivelyNegative 2026-02-20 18:55

I would buy one so fucking fast

omy2vacay 2026-02-20 19:24

I would buy it if it has more seats

Itsnotadrone 2026-02-20 19:39

Yes Wells Fargo owns most of it

ronntron 2026-02-20 19:53

Exactly, feels more like 30% less

Rude_Bar_9700 2026-02-20 23:23

I wonder if the towing capacity is just a software limitation

Present-Ad-9598 2026-02-20 23:33

CrashKingElon 2026-02-21 04:07

If FSD is your go / no go than you already know that Tesla is your only option. And I don't think you're getting anything bigger than the Model Y and smaller/rugged than the CT.

CrashKingElon 2026-02-21 04:12

I think VW has a pretty competitive stake.

CrashKingElon 2026-02-21 04:15

Towing capacity is almost always an engineering limitation. Doubtful the CT just refuses to drive if it thinks youre over the limit. Now whether you are SAFELY towing is a different question and there a whole subreddit of tow police if you want to see the worst of the worse.

SnooRobots3331 2026-02-21 04:54

This even a better deal to because it’s AWD and the $39.9k one announced was just RWD

FNboy 2026-02-21 05:59

All of the interesting and innovative features are there, like steer by wire, motorized toneau cover, hardware 4, motorized frunk, outlets in the back and the ability to PowerShare. That and 4.1 seconds for 0-60 makes this a very good deal for a vehicle that offers essentially peerless features.

ScottPrombo 2026-02-21 06:27

$60k

Comfortable_Dog499 2026-02-21 07:16

Yep. Always wondered why people consider the Y an SUV. It's like calling a Subaru Crosstrek an SUV.

SerennialFellow 2026-02-21 07:40

The base model Y frunk tend to pool water if you drive in the rain

Present-Ad-9598 2026-02-21 07:42

Oh damn😭 I haven’t seen any true reviews of the Standard, that’s so crazy

SerennialFellow 2026-02-21 08:01

Have you seen the top gear makes trains episode I’d like to think standard model y is one of those classes

Present-Ad-9598 2026-02-21 09:55

ConstantBreadfruit12 2026-02-21 16:41

Never will

ALS111 2026-02-21 16:42

Agree. I love mine. I'm a DIY suburban guy who loathes the Cybertruck name but otherwise enjoys the retro sci-fi DeLorean aesthetic. I find it not only surprisingly easy to maneuver and comfortable as hell, but also more than capable at hauling firewood, saplings, mulch, curbside finds, estate sale ellipticals/patio furniture, towing log-splitters & small trailers, etc. It also is fantastic for camping and tailgates, and it powers my home during blackouts. You just have to be comfortable with opinionated people who've never (or barely) used one telling you about how it's actually not good for doing things you are already doing with it regularly. Towing long-distances is where it falls short of conventional pickup performance but I usually don't drive more than 250 miles away in the average year so it's not been a problem. Also, a lot of people find it ugly and seem to need you to know they find it ugly. They have a strong urge to convince you their opinion should also be yours. I know many people are (understandably) angry about the state of affairs in the USA and it's unfortunate that this thing has become their lightning rod. This too shall pass. But FWIW, I do agree it seems like Elon lost the plot somewhere in 2019.

ALS111 2026-02-21 16:52

This joke is SO tired. I understand they're really trying to say it looks like a car designed by someone who knows nothing about cars, but it loses its impact after the billionth time, and obviously while it's definitely weird-looking it actually looks nothing like the "Homer." https://preview.redd.it/j7rn6rlunvkg1.jpeg?width=447&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b255348b26b833ce47658ecdd2eee24515821538

Not arguing it's not extremely unconventional, but worse than the Honda Element and the Nissan Cube? Agree to disagree.

Are you guys bots or did you somehow just not see the last 16 million comments making these same threadbare jokes over the past six years?

Callierhino 2026-02-21 17:00

You guys are just a bunch of fan boys, I like Elon, but at least I can admit when he makes a terrible product. The sales figures tell the story

ParticularNew5321 2026-02-21 17:22

We disagree. The Cyber Truck is the UGLIEST vehicle on the road.

Maverlck 2026-02-21 23:14

👀

Maverlck 2026-02-22 00:45

One thing that is very attractive about Tesla is the FSD for me. There's not a single manufacturer that provides that service to the public.

SubieSTI360 2026-02-22 05:11

The Hummer looks amazing in my opinion

Team-Rocketto-Dan 2026-02-22 08:29

The sales do tell a story. The CT was the second best selling EV truck in 2025 behind the F150 Lightning. This is inspite of the cheapest trim being 80k and the Lightning being near 50k. Used CTs are holding at 70k and Lightnings are reselling around 40k. Clearly there is high demand for a cheaper CT, and despite the highly vocal detractors, a appreciation for how it looks (enough to get 2 million preorders).

Callierhino 2026-02-22 08:48

Most pre orders got cancelled, they had a lot of recalls, CT only made up 0.67% of truck sales, in 2025 CT sales dropped by 48% over 2023, the range is much less than what promised, they are sitting with around 10 000 new trucks in inventory that are not selling, new trucks like the Silverado EV are eating into CT sales, just because a CT is on the market for 70k it does not mean it is going to sell, used car dealers are less willing to hold CT in inventory, owners are seeing a 35-45% drop in value in the first 12 months of ownership. Look if you like the thing, go for it, but it is not a sales success by any measure. When it was new there was a lot of hype, but that quickly died down

Present-Ad-9598 2026-02-22 09:41

That’s an SUV

Team-Rocketto-Dan 2026-02-22 11:39

It's not a success. But for the high price it sells for and despite it's long list of recalls, it is outperforming the EV truck segment. Now compared to the entire Truck segment, yes, it is mediocre, and comparing Tesla's sales goals also underperforming. But it's holding up better than expected against other EV Trucks. If that's not good enough, you'd have to concede that EV trucks are a failure as a whole, and that they have no business competing against proper ICE trucks.

Callierhino 2026-02-22 12:00

I would consider EV trucks a fail

atxer 2026-02-22 15:06

Yep. I had one of the first reservations thinking it would be a cool statement and they would make some design tweaks on the final version. But it never grew on me.

SubieSTI360 2026-02-22 16:08

Previous gens yes.. but the EV has a bed. A pretty useless one. But it does. And 99% of the ICE and EV trucks out there are just short man syndrome solutions and aren’t used as trucks for work anyways.

MindfulJedi 2026-02-22 22:27

Noticed the lower towing capacity, does that mean a smaller dual motor and or battery pack?

AzzFacce 2026-02-24 13:48

You’d sell millions if it just look a little more traditional. So ugly now. I’d love one, but I’d have to keep my eyes closed until I got in.

DeadElb0w 2026-02-25 03:08

30k and I’ll buy

Gjallarhorn_Lost 2026-02-26 20:07

It's kinda ugly, though.

Rude_Bar_9700 2026-03-04 17:02

You think they would spend more money on engineering a truck with less towing capacity to sell for less money when they already have a truck that can tow 11k lbs?

HermesPassport 2026-03-04 21:05

Your presumption that there is anything different with the engineering of the truck specific to towing is probably wrong (just an equation). Do I think they would spend money to introduce a lower priced vehicle with hopes of selling more units while still being profitable...absolutely and welcome to the auto industry. I also think the focus on towing, especially with an EV, is something that manufacturers recognize as not being meaningful and is more for bragging rights vs actual demand.

CrashKingElon 2026-03-04 21:08

They spent money on engineering a vehicle that nobody wants. So there's your answer.

Rude_Bar_9700 2026-03-05 03:09

If nobody wants them, why are they on every corner I’m my state?

CrashKingElon 2026-03-05 03:19

Broken down maybe? I dunno - you tell me.

Rude_Bar_9700 2026-03-05 04:26

I mean running and driving trucks. I don’t live near a copart or iaai center
