Tesla has launched a variety of accessories for the Cybertruck after its launch event on Thursday, where it handed over the first few units to customers.

Tesla finally released pricing, range, trim levels, and other specs for the Cybertruck, and now that the pickup is finally in the hands of those who have waited patiently for four years, accessories are also available.

Among the more notable picks in the Tesla Cybertruck shop are the Cybertruck BaseCamp, two different wrap options, storage solutions, and a tailgate ramp.

Tesla Cybertruck BaseCamp

Tesla’s Cybertruck BaseCamp is a great option for anyone who plans to use the vehicle for camping or similar outdoor activities:

“Bring your campsite with you on the road, featuring an ultra-light geodesic air-frame design, the Cybertruck BaseCamp Tent can be inflated in minutes using a manual pump without the need for any structural poles. A tactical grey kaleidoscope-patterned nylon interior keeps you safe from the elements, while screen windows allow for airflow to keep you comfortable. Relax on an ultra-soft mattress while taking in a view of the stars.”

Retailing for $2,975, the Cybertruck BaseCamp seems like a great accessory to have for anyone who plans to spend a few nights in the Cybertruck.

Tesla Cybertruck Wrap Options

Tesla Cybertruck wraps were all the speculation over the past few years. Elon Musk said we would be able to wrap the Cybertruck in any color or pattern a few years ago. For now, Tesla says Black or White will do.

“Wrap your Cybertruck in one of our premium color paint films, only available through Tesla. Offered in Satin Black and Satin White.”

Tesla is offering these wraps for $6,500, just a month or so after it started offering seven different wrap colors on the Model 3 and Model Y. Perhaps the colors will expand as the Cybertruck production ramp intensifies, but for now, these, along with a clear PPF, are what is available to customers.

Tesla Cybertruck Tailgate Ramp

Tesla is offering a tailgate ramp for people who want to load up a dirtbike, ATV, or other things into the bed of the Cybertruck.

This is a great option considering the company has evidently geared a lot of the products, and the truck in general, to those who have an appreciation of the great outdoors:

“Load it up, haul it out. The Cybertruck tailgate ramp makes loading and unloading easy. The lightweight ramp is easy to install and can be used individually to move hefty gear or in pairs to load four-wheel vehicles like Cyberquad.”

It’s also very nice to see that Tesla is still intending to develop the Cyberquad, based on the description of the product.

Other Accessories

Along with floormats, glass roof sunshades, storage trays, spare tire and tool kit, and bumper protectors.

Oh, and an “OMFG Decal,” that gives a nice ode to the shattered window that was caused by the metal ball Chief Designer Franz von Holzhausen chucked at the window in 2019.

Not included in the accessories shop yet is the Range Extender that will be available for the Cybertruck.

Tesla rolls out new Supercharging safety feature in the U.S.

Tesla has rolled out a new Supercharging safety feature in the United States, one that will answer concerns that some owners may have if they need to leave in a pinch.

It is also a suitable alternative for non-Tesla chargers, like third-party options that feature J1772 or CCS to NACS adapters.

The feature has been available in Europe for some time, but it is now rolling out to Model 3 and Model Y owners in the U.S.

With Software Update 2026.2.3, Tesla is launching the Unlatching Charge Cable function, which will now utilize the left rear door handle to release the charging cable from the port. The release notes state:

“Charging can now be stopped and the charge cable released by pulling and holding the rear left door handle for three seconds, provided the vehicle is unlocked, and a recognized key is nearby. This is especially useful when the charge cable doesn’t have an unlatch button. You can still release the cable using the vehicle touchscreen or the Tesla app.”

The feature was first spotted by Not a Tesla App.

This is an especially nice feature for those who commonly charge at third-party locations that utilize plugs that are not NACS, which is the Tesla standard.

For example, after plugging into a J1772 charger, you will still be required to unlock the port through the touchscreen, which is a minor inconvenience, but an inconvenience nonetheless.

Additionally, it could be viewed as a safety feature, especially if you’re in need of unlocking the charger from your car in a pinch. Simply holding open the handle on the rear driver’s door will now unhatch the port from the car, allowing you to pull it out and place it back in its housing.

This feature is currently only available on the Model 3 and Model Y, so Model S, Model X, and Cybertruck owners will have to wait for a different solution to this particular feature.

LG Energy Solution pursuing battery deal for Tesla Optimus, other humanoid robots: report

Optimus is expected to be one of Tesla’s most ambitious projects, with Elon Musk estimating that the humanoid robot could be the company’s most important product.

A recent report has suggested that LG Energy Solution is in discussions to supply batteries for Tesla’s Optimus humanoid robot.

Optimus is expected to be one of Tesla’s most ambitious projects, with Elon Musk estimating that the humanoid robot could be the company’s most important product.

Humanoid robot battery deals

LG Energy Solution shares jumped more than 11% on the 28th after a report from the Korea Economic Daily claimed that the company is pursuing battery supply and joint development agreements with several humanoid robot makers. These reportedly include Tesla, which is developing Optimus, as well as multiple Chinese robotics companies.

China is already home to several leading battery manufacturers, such as CATL and BYD, making the robot makers’ reported interest in LG Energy Solution quite interesting. Market participants interpreted the reported outreach as a signal that performance requirements for humanoid robots may favor battery chemistries developed by companies like LG.

LF Energy Solution vs rivals

According to the report, energy density is believed to be the primary reason humanoid robot developers are evaluating LG Energy Solution’s batteries. Unlike electric vehicles, humanoid robots have significantly less space available for battery packs while requiring substantial power to operate dozens of joint motors and onboard artificial intelligence processors.

LG Energy Solution’s ternary lithium batteries offer higher energy density compared with rivals’ lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries, which are widely used by Chinese EV manufacturers. That advantage could prove critical for humanoid robots, where runtime, weight, and compact packaging are key design constraints.
