Leaked Cybertruck AWD Photos: Base Wheels, Coil Suspension, and Why I'm Not Mad At It
Hey everyone, DennisCW here! If you're as obsessed with the Tesla Cybertruck as I am, you've probably seen the buzz around these leaked photos of the Cybertruck All-Wheel Drive (AWD) standard model. Shoutout to Noah for posting these gems in the Cybertruck group—they give us our best look yet at what the more affordable version might look like.
Exterior and Wheels: Rugged and Efficient
Right off the bat, this AWD Cybertruck screams "base model" with its stock wheels. They're smaller than the premium ones, which I'm actually digging. Smaller wheels often mean better efficiency and maximum range—perfect for a truck that's meant to haul and go the distance. Plus, as a truck guy, I love that rugged vibe. No worrying about curb rash or fancy alloys getting dinged up when you're off-roading or tackling tough jobs.

The best part? The wheel cap is removable for easy lug nut access. Tesla could offer cool accessories here—like upgraded caps or covers to dress them up and make them look more premium. Smart design!
Interior: Textile Seats and Rear Details
Peeking inside, we get a glimpse of the textile interior with those standard seats. I've heard great things about the comfort, but I haven't sat in one yet—I'm holding out to test it in person before forming a final opinion. The rear also rocks the textile treatment.
No fancy rear screen here—just a simple vent and a light at the bottom. That said, I'm betting on aftermarket options like a retrofit screen via something like a Hondo plug-in. The possibilities are endless!

Suspension: Coil Springs for the Win?
One of the standout features in these leaks is the coil spring suspension. If you're into truck mods, this is huge! You can slap on lift kits, swap springs for higher or lower setups, and customize without dealing with the sensors and complexity of air suspension on the premium Cybertrucks.

My Take: Loving the $59,990 Price Tag
Honestly? I'm not mad at any of this. It's a rugged, efficient, modifiable beast at $59,990. That's why my wife and I placed an order just to snag a spot in the queue. (Fingers crossed!)
I was bummed to miss out on the rear-wheel drive (RWD) versions, but this AWD base model looks like a solid contender.
