Months after its launch, the least expensive Cybertruck is gone from Tesla‘s website, EV news site Electrek and others have reported.

The rear-wheel drive vehicle, called the Long Range, started at $69,990. Tesla launched the model back in April. As Engadget noted, it was $10,000 more than the expected price at the time. Tesla removed several features from the Long Range that were present in more expensive models, like active suspension and a back row touchscreen.

Now, the only Cybertruck models that appear on Tesla’s website (as of this publication) are the All-Wheel Drive, which starts at $72,490, and the Cyberbeast, which starts at $114,990. Tesla increased the price of the Cyberbeast last month with the mandatory “Luxe Package,” including Full Self-Driving, four-year premium service, free and unlimited supercharging, and “premium” connectivity.

Although there’s currently no way to order the rear-wheel drive Cybertruck model from Tesla’s site, Tesla’s AI assistant still shared details about the Long Range Cybertruck with Mashable, and even offered to schedule a test drive. But the link it provided for more details still only offered the All-Wheel Drive and Cyberbeast models.

It’s unclear whether Tesla has discontinued the Long Range model or if its removal from the site is temporary. Mashable has reached out to Tesla for comment.
