Four years. This is how long Tesla took to officially start delivering the Cybertruck to customers after the moment it unveiled the model in November 2019. Elon Musk announced three trims for the vehicle, with the Cyberbeast being the top of the line. But what do you actually get if you order the Cyberbeast?
The Tesla Cybertruck Cyberbeast is the most expensive and the best equipped of the Cybertruck lineup, except for the limited-run Foundation Series, offered to the customers who wanted to get their vehicle early and were willing to pay $120,000. One of them was the Reddit co-founder and husband of Serena Williams, Alexis Ohanian, who is currently driving VIN003. Jay Leno has also been spotted driving one, but claimed that it was not his.

Tesla has revealed the specs of the range-topping Cyberbeast. We are, thus, dealing with a tri-motor variant. The three of them generate a total output of 845 horsepower (857 PS) and an impressive 10,296 pound-feet (13,960 Nm) of torque.

These are the parameters that make the Cybertruck Cyberbeast accelerate from 0 to 60 mph (0 to 97 kph) in 2.6 seconds with the Beast mode engaged, on its way to a top speed of 130 mph (209 kph). It also does the quarter mile in 11.0 seconds.

The energy is stored in a lithium-ion battery pack with a capacity of 123 kWh. The pack provides the vehicle with an estimated EPA range of 320 miles (515 kilometers) or 440 miles (708 kilometers) with the range-extender setup.

It takes only 15 minutes for the battery to charge enough for a 128-mile (206-kilometer) drive once it is connected to a Tesla supercharger.

The EV has a towing capacity of 11,000 pounds (4,990 kilograms). It rides on 20-inch wheels and comes with both workhorse and supercar credentials. The Cyberbeast is the variant that defeated the Porsche 911 in a drag race while towing another Porsche 911.

The Tesla Cybertruck Cyberbeast starts at $99,990 before . Whoever wants to reserve the variant has to pay a $250 deposit. Once Tesla gets the reservation request, the customer will be invited to configure the vehicle when possible.

Things have very much changed since 2019, when the range-topping Cybetruck was estimated to start at $69,900. Back then, those who wanted to reserve the EV had to pay a $100 deposit.

Considering regulations regarding pedestrian safety in Europe, as well as the registration of passenger cars, the vehicle might not even land on the Old Continent. The tri-motor, large-battery Cybertruck Cyberbeast tips the scales at 6,843 pounds. Therefore, it is simply too heavy to be driven with a regular driving license in Europe, where the B license allows drivers to drive vehicles below 3.5 tonnes (7,716 pounds).
