Tesla has discontinued the most affordable version of the Cybertruck in North America, five months after the vehicle’s long-awaited debut.
The Long Range Rear-Wheel Drive trim, priced from $69,990 before incentives, has been removed from Tesla’s online configurator on Friday.
It had been introduced in April as the lowest-cost option beneath the $79,990 all-wheel-drive version.
At launch, the Long Range RWD was the most affordable variant of the lineup, and eligible for the $7,500 US federal tax credit, effectively lowering its price to $62,490 before options.
It offered an estimated 350 miles of range on 18-inch wheels, longer than the 325 miles of the dual-motor All-Wheel Drive and the 320 miles of the tri-motor ‘Cyberbeast’.
It also matched or exceeded its siblings in charging performance, capable of adding up to 147 miles of range in 15 minutes on a Supercharger, compared with 137 miles for the AWD and 135 miles for the Cyberbeast.
The move raises the entry price of the Cybertruck lineup by $10,000, with the All-Wheel Drive now the cheapest option at $72,490 under Tesla’s updated pricing structure.
The Cyberbeast remains listed at $114,990.
The discontinued RWD model lacked premium features such as leather seating, a rear display, and adjustable air suspension.
Tesla sold 55,500 vehicles in the United States last month, a new monthly record in 2025, sales estimates from Motor Intelligence showed earlier this month.
The figures mark a modest 4.4% rise from the same period last year and a 3.1% increase from July’s 53,816 units, when Tesla posted its first year-over-year monthly gain since the start of 2025.
