Tesla’s Cybertruck Long Range Hits Market: 362-Mile Range and $62K Price Tag With Tax Credit

Tesla has officially opened the gates to one of its most anticipated electric vehicles yet, the Cybertruck Long Range edition. According to Tesla’s official announcement on X (formerly Twitter), the extended-range version of the futuristic truck is now available with an estimated 362 miles of range, a 7,500-pound towing capacity, and a price tag of $62,490, factoring in the Federal Tax Credit.

This updated configuration offers a more road-trip-friendly battery pack than the standard dual-motor AWD model and is paired with a soft tonneau cover to help maximize aerodynamics and range. The post included an image of the Cybertruck speeding along an open mountain road, an aesthetic nod to its adventurous aspirations.

What’s Included in the Long Range Model?

Here’s a quick breakdown of what buyers can expect:

• Price: $62,490 (including $7,500 U.S. federal EV tax credit)

• Range: Estimated 362 miles with soft tonneau cover installed

• Bed Size: 6-foot by 4-foot cargo area

• Towing Capacity: 7,500 pounds

• Availability: Order page is live on tesla.com/cybertruck/design

The Long Range Cybertruck is positioned between the base AWD configuration and the performance-oriented Cyberbeast, making it ideal for customers looking for endurance without sacrificing utility.

A Delayed but Welcome Arrival

The Cybertruck was originally unveiled in 2019, and since then, delays due to manufacturing, design tweaks, and material sourcing (including that ultra-tough stainless steel exterior) have pushed back mass production. Now, in 2025, Tesla appears to be hitting stride, with deliveries ramping up and more trim levels becoming available.

This release comes amid growing competition in the electric pickup market. Ford’s F-150 Lightning, Rivian’s R1T, and GM’s Silverado EV have all gained traction. But the Cybertruck still commands attention with its angular, sci-fi design, bullet-resistant panels, and native Tesla ecosystem integration.

Designed for Utility and Range

While 362 miles may not be record-breaking, it’s a sweet spot for most real-world drivers, especially when paired with Tesla’s rapidly expanding Supercharger network. With the soft tonneau cover in place, drag is reduced, helping push the range into respectable territory for a full-size EV truck. Without the cover, expect slightly less range due to air resistance.

Still Polarizing, Still Tesla

Despite the impressive specs, the Cybertruck remains a polarizing product. Some buyers are captivated by its post-apocalyptic design, while others question its street practicality and size. Still, early orders remain strong, and Tesla’s fan base is clearly engaged, this single post has already surpassed 1.7 million views within hours.

The Cybertruck Long Range represents Tesla’s attempt to bridge style, range, and functionality. For $62,490, buyers now have access to an EV pickup that doesn’t just turn heads, it also hauls, tows, and covers serious ground. With deliveries ongoing and order pages live, 2025 is shaping up to be the year the Cybertruck finally hits its stride.
