The Tesla Cybertruck came onto the market in November.
A market launch for Arabia is planned.
The Cybertruck is already available to buy in Dubai - but it's not cheap there.
Opinions differ about Tesla's Cybertruck.
For some it is one of the ugliest cars ever built.
The others are excited about the electric pick-up precisely because of its futuristic design.
One thing is certain: this electric car will make you stand out.
And that makes the Cybertruck actually perfect for some Arab states.
Unlike in Europe, where the Cybertruck will probably not receive approval, it will also come onto the market in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
According to
Esquire Middle East,
this shouldn't happen until April or May 2025 at the earliest.
The
National News
portal expects the market launch at the end of 2024.

Cybertruck is for sale in Dubai – for almost 130,000 euros
If you don't want to wait that long, you already have the chance to secure the electric pick-up in Dubai.
There is a vehicle for sale there.
The Cybertruck is offered on the Dubizzle
portal
for 520,000 dirhams (approx. 129,500 euros or around 141,600 US dollars).
The Cybertruck will soon be available in numerous showrooms in Dubai.

According to the seller, it is a Cyberbeast version with 847 hp (630 kW).
The e-pickup normally costs $96,390 (around 88,150 euros) in the USA.
However, since this is a Foundation Edition vehicle, the price increases by $20,000 to $116,390 (approx. 106,450 euros).
So the seller adds more than 20 percent to the price.
However, it is unclear which special equipment was ordered.
Compared to a copy that was auctioned in the USA for 244,5000 dollars (223,555 euros), this Cybertruck is almost a steal.

More Cybertrucks on the way: Importer expects great success in Dubai
Especially since pick-ups are much more popular in the UAE than here in Germany.
“I’m sure it will be very popular here in Dubai,” importer Kirill Sosnovyi told the
National News
.
“We already have some Cybertrucks in the US, and we are bringing this model here on the plane, which is scheduled to arrive later this month.” So there should be more models for sale soon.

However, their buyers should study the manual carefully, because the Tesla doesn't tolerate dirt particularly well and therefore has to be taken to the car wash regularly.
Snow isn't one of the Cybertruck's strengths either, but that's only available indoors in Dubai anyway.
However, the significantly shorter range and the numerous critical errors that may occur could be more likely to cause dissatisfaction.
