Tesla offered many Cybertruck trade-ins above purchase price in apparent glitch

Tesla is considering building a smaller pickup truck after the Cybertruck failed

Cyberbeast / Supply: Tesla.com

Over the weekend, Tesla started providing many Cybertruck trade-in estimated values above the unique buy value, apparently as a consequence of a glitch in its system.

Tesla gives on-line trade-in estimates for people contemplating buying a car from them.

Over the previous few days, Cybertruck homeowners who submitted their autos by the system have been shocked to see Tesla providing extraordinarily excessive valuations on the car, usually above what they initially paid for the electrical truck.

Listed here are just a few examples:

Commercial – scroll for extra content material

  • $79,200 for a 2025 Cybertruck AWD with 18,000 miles. Since it is a 2025 mannequin yr, it was eligible for the tax credit score and Tesla is providing the identical value as new with out incentive.
  • Right here Tesla provided $118,800 for a 2024 Cybertruck ‘Cyberbeast’ tri-motor with 21,000 miles.
  • On this instance, Tesla gives $11,000 greater than the proprietor initially paid for a 2024 Cybertruck.

So, commerce within the Basis Sequence Cybertruck AWD for $11k greater than I paid for it initially, re-buy an AWD with FSD for $79,490 after the tax credit score.

I would lose free supercharging for all times, Cyberwheels, and white inside.

I would get 0% curiosity and save $20-30k.

The trade-in estimates made no sense. Tesla has been identified to supply extra enticing estimates on-line after which come decrease with the official last provide, however that is on an entire completely different stage.

Some speculated that Tesla’s trade-in estimate system was malfunctioning, whereas others thought Tesla was not directly recalling early Cybertrucks.

It seems to be the previous.

Some Tesla Cybertruck homeowners who tried to undergo a brand new order with their Cybertruck as a trade-in have been informed by Tesla advisors that the system was “glitching” and they’d not be honoring these costs.

Tesla informed consumers that it could be refunding its often “non-refundable” order price.

Electrek’s Take

That’s a bizarre glitch. I assume that it was making an attempt to alter how the trade-in worth could be estimated and the brand new math didn’t work for the Cybertruck for no matter purpose.

It’s the one factor that is sensible to me.

The Cybertruck’s worth is already fairly bizarre as a consequence of the truth that Tesla nonetheless has new autos made in 2024, which aren’t eligible for the tax credit score incentive, whereas the brand new ones made in 2025 are eligible.

There’s additionally the Basis Sequence, which bundles many options for a $20,000 increased value.

All these items have an effect on the worth and may make it onerous to check with new Cybertrucks provided with 0% curiosity.
