AUSTIN, Texas — Tesla has begun assigning vehicle identification numbers to customers who ordered the dual-motor All-Wheel-Drive Cybertruck, a step that typically precedes deliveries by only a few weeks. The move signals that the most affordable full-capability Cybertruck yet is about to reach driveways after months of anticipation.
A Lot of Truck for the Money
Tesla introduced the AWD trim earlier this year at an opening price of $59,990, undercutting expectations and drawing a rush of orders. Even at the current $69,990 price, the truck packs a 325-mile range rating, a 0-60 mph time of about 4.1 seconds, 7,500 pounds of towing capacity, a powered tonneau, a powered frunk, three bed outlets, Powershare bidirectional power, coil springs with adaptive damping, and steer-by-wire with four-wheel steering. That feature set makes it one of the most capable electric pickups on the market, and by a wide margin the best-equipped Cybertruck for the price. The rollout continues a busy stretch for Tesla, which recently showcased new Model Y L features at a Los Angeles event.
From Staging Lots to Customer Hands
Drone watchers have tracked the trim's progress for weeks, spotting freshly built units staged in the outbound lots at Gigafactory Texas. Industry tracker Sawyer Merritt confirmed that VIN assignments are now going out, which historically means first deliveries follow within weeks. Tesla lists delivery windows for new orders in the August-to-September 2026 range, suggesting the company has built enough inventory to move quickly once the first wave clears.
