The already iconic look of the Tesla Cybertruck is having somewhat of a revamp with three new shades being introduced to their online store.
Think of the Cybertruck and you probably picture a shiny stainless-steel color.
Online commenters agree that these new shades, added on Tuesday, 20th February, have completely shaken up the look and feel of the EV pickup.

The catch? You’ll add an extra $6,000-6,500 to your bill.
Customers can use the app to choose from the three lavish color wraps including ‘satin abyss blue’ for $6,500.
‘Slip grey” and “satin rose gold” can be yours for a fraction less at $6,000.
The Tesla website states that the new wraps are only available at four of the EV’s service centers in California.

Participating branches include West Covina, Oceanside, Costa Mesa, and Santa Clara.
If these colors aren’t your vibe, ‘stealth black’ and ‘satin ceramic white’ have been available since December at $6,000 each.
It seems the color wraps have become available far sooner than Tesla CEO, Elon Musk, predicted.
In December 2021, when asked on X if the Cybertrucks would install wraps at the factory, he seemed to think there would be a delay.

“Not at first, but there are many third party options for wrapping,” he said.
The urethane-based film is described by Tesla as as “self-healing”.
Helping protect the EV against scratches and being “more environmentally friendly than traditional vinyl wraps” makes the additional spend seem justified.
Chief designer, Franz von Holzhausen, was seen driving a Cybertruck with a matte stealth black wrap in Malibu, California, before the delivery event on November 30.
The EV has also been seen with a camouflage wrap and in a black gloss.
“Clean,” said one user in response to the X post by @cybertruck.
“Awesome,” a second said.
“Very slick, they all look wonderful,” a third agreed.
