Tesla Removes Cybertruck Specs from Website, Still Taking Deposits

• We all know by now that Tesla doesn't follow the rules or traditions of other automakers as it launches new models, so the fact that previously announced specs for the upcoming Cybertruck have disappeared from the company website isn't exactly a huge surprise.

• The removal of these details does make us wonder if the recently announced production delay is really about changing more than the delivery date.

• If you want to buy an actual, physical Cybertruck, you can do that by checking out the $250 Mega X Cybertruck brick model, which comes with cute Easter eggs re-created in plastic.

The Tesla Cybertruck saga continues to roll along on its own path. From its divisive, angular styling to delays for when the truck is supposed to go into production, the Cybertruck is the perfect vehicle for those uninterested in a standard new-vehicle buying experience. The latest twist is that even the few details Tesla previously offered about the truck might not be as locked in as fans might wish.

Previously, for example, Tesla said the Cybertruck would come in three main flavors: a rear-wheel-drive model for $39,990, an all-wheel-drive option for $49,990, and a tri-motor option for $69,990. These prices and other specs, like its 500-plus miles of range and zero-to-60-mph time of under 2.9 seconds (in the top tri-motor configuration), were removed from Tesla's website this week.

Tesla doesn't have a traditional PR department, so the company did not release a statement about why details about the Cybertruck were taken off the site. Similarly, CEO Elon Musk's Twitter feed is silent on the matter.
