2026 Tesla Cybertruck review

Tesla Cybertruck: capability first, comfort close behind. Illustrative review

7.9/10 OffLot expert score

The 2026 Tesla Cybertruck is a strong contender in its class. Strong tow and payload ratings for the class; cab is quiet at highway speed. Tall step-in height and fuel economy drops sharply when towing, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $70,000, it lines up with most direct rivals.

Happy after a year

Twelve thousand miles in. Nothing has gone wrong, dealer service has been easy, and the towing stability still impresses passengers.

★★★★☆Lillian G. · Houston, TX · 11 months owned
Would buy again

We cross-shopped three others and this won on towing stability. the fuel bill when towing is the trade-off.
