Tesla Cybertruck Bed Dimensions & Cargo Specs
Direct Answer
The Tesla Cybertruck bed is a 6-foot vault: 72.9 in (6.07 ft) long with the tailgate up, expanding to ~96 in (8.0 ft) tailgate-down. Width is 51 in at the widest, depth tapers from 28.66 in (front) to 19.89 in (rear). Total bed volume is 67 cu ft. A powered roll-top tonneau is standard on AWD and Cyberbeast trims. Five onboard outlets (120V/240V) support running tools without an external generator.

The Cybertruck bed is a 6-foot vault with tapered walls, a powered roll-top tonneau, and five onboard outlets for running tools. If you're sizing a tonneau accessory, a bike rack, a rooftop tent, or a dirt bike to haul, the numbers below are what you need. Every dimension is from Tesla's public spec sheet and owner-measured verifications in the Cybertruck Owners Club forum.
Bed Dimensions at a Glance
| Metric | Imperial | Metric |
|---|---|---|
| Bed length (tailgate up) | 72.9 in / 6.07 ft | 1,852 mm |
| Bed length (tailgate down) | ~96 in / 8.0 ft | ~2,440 mm |
| Bed width (at widest) | 51 in | 1,295 mm |
| Bed depth (front, at cab) | 28.66 in | 728 mm |
| Bed depth (rear, at tailgate) | 19.89 in | 505 mm |
| Bed volume | 67 cu ft | 1,900 L |
| Tonneau cover | Powered roll-top (AWD + Cyberbeast standard) | |
The sloping bed floor is intentional — it creates a 9-inch depth differential between the cab wall and the tailgate, which helps with water runoff and lets flat sheets (plywood, drywall) sit flush under the tonneau cover.
Cargo & Payload Capacity
| Storage zone | Capacity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Main bed volume | 67 cu ft / 1,900 L | With tonneau closed, cover-to-bed-floor |
| Under-bed sub-trunk | ~17 cu ft / 481 L | Sealed, lockable, weatherproof |
| Frunk | ~7 cu ft / 200 L | Front cargo, chilled capable |
| Max payload (AWD) | 2,500 lb / 1,100 kg | Best-in-class for a pickup this size |
| Max payload (Long Range RWD) | 2,006 lb / 910 kg | Lighter battery pack lowers rating |
| Max towing (AWD) | 11,000 lb / 5,000 kg | 2-inch receiver hitch standard |
| Max towing (RWD) | 7,500 lb / 3,400 kg | Factory trailer tow package |
What Actually Fits in the Bed
Real-world fitment scenarios owners confirm:
- Full-size dirt bike (CRF450R, KTM 350): fits diagonally with tailgate up; fits straight with tailgate down and strapped.
- 4×8 ft plywood sheets: fit flat under the closed tonneau if bed width (51 in) orientation works — plywood at 48 in slides in with 3 in margin.
- Two standard road bikes, wheels on: fit standing upright with a bed-mount rack; lay flat in 3–4 pieces.
- Rooftop tent / bed tent: 4-person tents sized for mid-size trucks fit the 51×72.9 in floor; hard-shell rooftop tents may overhang the cab.
- Yard debris / 30-gal trash bags: 8–10 bags fit with tonneau open.
- Standard-size cooler (Yeti Tundra 65): fits with room for two more 48-qt coolers alongside.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will a 4×8 sheet of plywood fit in the Cybertruck bed?
Yes — with the tonneau closed or open, a 4×8 ft sheet (48 in wide) slides in flat on the 51-inch-wide bed floor with 3 inches of margin each side. Length-wise you'll need the tailgate down (bed length extends to ~96 in / 8 ft with tailgate dropped) and a strap or flag for the overhang past the tailgate.
How deep is the Cybertruck bed — and why is it different front vs rear?
The bed is 28.66 inches deep at the cab wall and 19.89 inches deep at the tailgate — a 9-inch slope designed for water runoff and to let flat objects (plywood, drywall, surfboards) sit flush when the tonneau is closed. The taper does NOT reduce usable vertical height for tall cargo because you load from the rear, where the depth is shallowest.
Can I mount a rooftop tent on the Cybertruck bed?
Yes, most bed-mount rooftop tents built for mid-size trucks (Tacoma, Ranger) fit the 51×72.9 in floor and clamp to the bed rails. The tonneau needs to be removed or retracted. Hard-shell rooftop tents with 84-inch footprints may overhang the cab roof — check cab-clearance specs before buying. Roof-top tents that mount on the cab itself work with crossbars rated for 75+ kg.
What's the max towing weight, and does it drain range fast?
AWD Cybertruck tows up to 11,000 lb braked; RWD tows 7,500 lb. The 2-inch receiver hitch is factory-standard with trailer brake wiring. Expect range to drop by 40–50% when towing loads above 5,000 lb at highway speed, so plan for roughly 150 miles between Supercharger stops with a travel trailer rather than the full 325 mi AWD rating.
How much can the Cybertruck bed carry in payload?
AWD trim carries 2,500 lb in the bed (passengers plus cargo combined); Long Range RWD carries 2,006 lb. Those ratings are best-in-class for pickups in this size range. The frunk adds another ~200 lb of payload capacity (rated separately), and the under-bed sub-trunk takes another ~150 lb — useful for heavy, weatherproof items like tool boxes.
