Used Tesla Cybertruck: the years to buy and the years to skip
Every Tesla Cybertruck from 2024 to 2025: what each year typically sells for (about $80,000 to $82,500), its crash rating, and whether it's a year to target or skip. The best bets are 2025. Look harder at or skip 2024.
2024–2025 Tesla Cybertruck
A polarizing stainless-steel electric pickup with steer-by-wire, rear-wheel steering and huge acceleration.
Years to target: 2025. Look harder at or skip: 2024. It has a below-average reliability record.
| Year | Typical price | Verdict | Crash rating | Typical miles |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2024 | $80,000 | Skip | 5 of 5 | ~30,000 |
| 2025 | $82,500 | Target | 5 of 5 | ~20,000 |
Worth knowing
- Skip 2024. Early trucks had several recalls, including an accelerator pedal pad that could stick and exterior trim panels that could detach.
- Early trucks saw several recalls, the bed is short, there is no smartphone mirroring, and the stainless body is costly to repair.
- Performance cars like this usually cost much more to insure than an average car, often 30% or more. Get a quote before you buy.
- Budget for real running costs: performance tires often cost $1,200 to $2,000 a set and can wear out in 15,000 miles, and brakes cost more to replace.
The trim we'd park in our garage
The dual-motor AWD is the mainstream pick with adaptive air suspension and 600 hp; the Cyberbeast adds a third motor, while the brief RWD version lacks air suspension.
On the test drive
Confirm all recalls are done and check the stainless panels and adhesive-mounted trim for gaps or lifting. Ask for a battery health report, and compare the range shown at full charge with the original rating.

Prices are typical dealer and private asking prices from used listings, collected in September and October 2026, for an average-mileage car. Years with too few listings are estimated from nearby years. Crash ratings, recalls and owner complaint counts come from NHTSA public records. Always get a pre-purchase inspection and a vehicle history report before you buy. Spot something off? Let us know.
