Tesla Cybertruck police vehicles escort Trump motorcade in Qatar
Briefly

Tesla has introduced a new Long Range Rear-Wheel-Drive variant of the Cybertruck, primarily marketed in Saudi Arabia initially. This configuration, which was anticipated back in 2019 but delayed for higher-demand all-wheel-drive trims, promises 350 miles of range and 0-100 km/h acceleration in 6.6 seconds. While no pricing is disclosed yet, the U.S. launch is expected later in 2025. The reasoning for prioritizing the Middle East market remains uncertain but could be linked to regulatory approvals necessary for a U.S. release.
"Tesla has unveiled a new Long Range Rear-Wheel-Drive trim of the Cybertruck, currently offered in Saudi Arabia, with a targeted launch in the U.S. set for late 2025."
"Despite earlier plans to launch this more affordable configuration in 2019, attention shifted to higher-demand all-wheel-drive versions, delaying its introduction until now."
