There is perhaps no more divisive vehicle on the market than Tesla's Cybertruck and now the Texas-headquartered brand wants to make its all-electric pickup more accessible by launching a cheaper version.

The Cybertruck Range Extender was announced at the vehicle’s delivery event as a $16,000 add-on that appears to take up about half of the truck’s usable rear bed space. Tesla initially promised in 2019 that the tri-motor Cybertruck would go more than 500 miles on a charge for about $70,000 — and that’s without any mention of an add-on battery.

Tesla launched the Cybertruck RWD at $69,990 despite removing almost all useful features in a move apparently aimed at boosting the AWD variant's appeal
