What to know before you insure your Cybertruck
| Your question | The answer | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| What is a new Cybertruck worth? | A new Cybertruck costs AED 404,990 for the Premium All-Wheel Drive and AED 454,990 for the Cyberbeast. The value on your policy depends on the version. | Keep your invoice to hand when you ask for cover. |
| Is your Cybertruck all-wheel drive? | Yes. Both UAE versions are all-wheel drive, and Tesla shows no two-wheel-drive version here. Off-road cover usually needs four-wheel drive. | Check your policy if you plan to go off-road. |
| How much can your Cybertruck carry and tow? | Up to 1,134 kg of load and 4,990 kg of towing, with 5 seats. Tesla marks these as U.S. specs. Loads and towing can change how the truck is used. | Tell your insurer if you carry heavy loads or tow. |
| Is your Tesla battery covered? | InsureMyTesla’s Liva wording covers it on cars up to 5 years old, capped at 30% of the insured value or AED 80,000. Gradual ageing and wear are excluded. | Check the cap and your car’s age before you rely on it. |
| Is your wallbox or cable covered? | The same wording insures a fitted wallbox up to AED 10,000 and a stolen charging cable up to AED 2,500. | Report a stolen cable to the police, because the cover needs a report. |
| Planning to drive off-road? | Damage off the road is excluded unless your policy adds it. Comprehensive policies that add off-road cover ask for four-wheel or all-wheel drive. | Ask for off-road cover before you go, and check your car qualifies. |
