Tesla has launched two new options for the Cybertruck Foundation Series, including a new interior trim that’ll be better for owners who may get their trucks dirty. The new interior option is the Tactical Grey configuration. An image of this interior leaked in January and an official photo confirms that the white panel stretching across the pickup’s dashboard and door panels has been replaced with a dark grey finish. White interior accents aren’t the best idea while off-roading as they show the dirt. The grey could be a good option for owners wanting to take their trucks off the beaten path.
Those who place a new order for the
Cybertruck Foundation Series will be able to opt for the Tactical Grey décor at
no extra cost. It’s unclear if those who’ve already placed an order before this
announcement will be able to change from the white interior trim to the grey.
Tesla has also dropped a new wheel and
tire package for the EV. This package ditches the off-road-focused 35-inch
All-Terrain tires in favor of 35-inch All-Season tires that’ll be better suited
to road driving. Additionally, the wheels’ aero covers are smaller and slightly
different in shape from the standard ones.
These new wheels and tires don’t just look
the part but also boost the truck’s range. Whereas the Dual-Motor All-Wheel
Drive Cybertruck and the Tri-Motor Cyberbeast are ordinarily rated at 512 km and 484 km respectively, the new wheel and tire package
increases these figures to 547 km and 512 km respectively. This wheel and tire package will also be available at no
additional cost.
Tesla plans to build approximately 20,000
examples of the Cybertruck Foundation Series, each selling for a US$ 20,000
premium over an equivalent regular version. While production of the truck is
accelerating, it is not expected to reach full-scale production until 2025.
