Cybertruck price hike: has Tesla abandoned affordability?

While Elon Musk lists build quality and affordability as chief
concerns, the still-flawed Cybertruck grows in both volume and price. 

On 10 August 2024, Tesla stopped selling the US$60,990 base edition of
its Cybertruck pickup. The electric vehicle (EV) maker also confirmed
via its website that its mid-range Cybertruck variant, the AWD, would
see a US$20,000 price increase, taking it to US$99,900. In effect, the
entry price for the Cybertruck series rose by US$39,000. The
high-performance Cyberbeast, a tri-motor variant with boosted range,
improved torque, and a higher top speed has also been raised by
US$20,000 to US$119,990.
