Tesla has quietly bumped up lease prices on the Cybertruck Premium AWD in the U.S., with monthly payments climbing roughly 10% compared to recent figures. The Cyberbeast trim, however, is holding steady — meaning this adjustment targets the entry point into Cybertruck leasing specifically.
According to @SawyerMerritt, the updated numbers break down as follows. For a $0 down lease, the Cybertruck Premium AWD now runs $1,100/month — up from approximately $997/month reported in April 2026, per automotive pricing trackers. Opt to put $5,000 down and the monthly payment lands at $949, a jump of around 12% on that structure. The Cyberbeast remains at $1,595/month with $0 down and $1,439/month with $5,000 down, unchanged.
The timing is notable. Cybertruck lease availability has been relatively recent in Tesla's lineup, and the company has adjusted lease terms several times as it calibrates residual values and demand signals. A 10% move on the Premium AWD — the more accessible of the two configurations — raises the floor for anyone considering leasing over buying. For context, the Cyberbeast lease gap over the Premium AWD now narrows slightly in percentage terms, which may push some shoppers toward the higher trim if they're already stretching the budget.
If you're currently in the market for a Cybertruck lease, it's worth checking Tesla's configurator directly for the most current figures, as lease terms can shift between the time a change is reported and when you reach the checkout screen.
