Although Cybertrucks were hard to come by in early 2024, you can get one today if you want it, according to Tesla's website. Leaving aside the subject of style, we gotta admit that the dual-motor Cybertruck delivers some righteous numbers. Interestingly, the impressive payload rating actually goes up by 300 pounds when you specify the all-terrain tires in place of the standard all-seasons. Of course, your range will also go down with the knobby tires. By how much? We can't give you any official numbers, since the EPA considers it to be a heavy-duty vehicle and thus exempts it from efficiency reporting.

2. 2024 Tesla Cybertruck Cyberbeast (Tri-Motor AWD)

• Base Price: $99,990
• Range: 301 mi (est.)
• Battery Capacity: 123.0 kWh
• Peak Charge Rate: 350 kW
• Drive Type: All-wheel drive
• Engine: 3 electric motors
• Horsepower: 845 
• Torque: N/A
• 0-60: 2.6 sec
• Weight: 6,863 lbs
• Length: 223.7 in
• Towing Capacity: 11,000 lbs
• Payload Capacity: 2,000 lbs

Like rival automaker Rivian, Tesla excels at providing way more performance in its faster models without giving up much range. The Cyberbeast continues this tradition, adding 245 horsepower and chopping a second and a half off the 0-60 sprint while only losing 24 miles of range, per Tesla. Although the 2,000-pound payload already puts the Cybertruck near the top of the non-heavy-duty heap, you can bump it up to 2,270 pounds by checking the box for the all-terrain tires. Those tires will hold back the range, though, so you might not want to make them your daily choice.
