Tesla Launches the Cybertruck in South Korea

In a significant move, Tesla has officially expanded the global footprint of its electric pickup truck, the Cybertruck, with South Korea being the latest destination. The long-awaited event was announced by Tesla on [X], signaling the start of pre-orders for the futuristic vehicle in the Asian EV market.

The Cybertruck, a bold future luxury product, has already secured a strong foothold in the U.S. market. In a recent development, all new orders of the Cybertruck in the U.S. now include the Luxe Package at no additional cost. However, the price of the Cybertruck has recently been increased by $15,000 USD in the U.S. The range-topping Cybertruck Cyberbeast is priced at 160,000,000 won (approximately $118,000 USD), while the Cybertruck All-Wheel Drive (AWD) is priced at 145,000,000 won (approximately $107,000 USD).

The Cybertruck's safety credentials are likely to play a major role in winning over South Korean buyers. The vehicle has secured individual 5-star ratings for both driver and passenger from the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Tesla also set a new monthly sales record in South Korea last month, indicating a growing interest in electric vehicles in the region.

The pre-orders for the Cybertruck in South Korea will open next week, on September 5. Tesla Korea will allow existing reservation holders to confirm their Cybertruck orders from August 29, 2025, to September 4, 2025. The launch in South Korea is capitalizing on the surging demand in a key Asian EV market.

Hyundai Motor Company started the pre-orders for the Cybertruck in South Korea on August 29, 2025, with new orders expected to be accepted in 2026. The Cybertruck, a product of Tesla, is an electric pickup truck that debuted in the U.S. market.

The Cybertruck's launch in South Korea comes at an exciting time for the electric vehicle industry. As more and more consumers turn towards sustainable transportation solutions, the Cybertruck offers a unique blend of performance, safety, and luxury that is sure to appeal to a wide audience. The Cybertruck is now available for order in South Korea, marking a significant milestone in Tesla's global expansion.
