Scrapper has the world's cheapest Tesla Cybertruck for sale

The first Tesla Cybertrucks have already been delivered. The wreck here must indisputably be the world's cheapest of its kind. Although it cannot be used for very much.

At a car wrecker in the USA, you may have the world's cheapest Tesla Cybertruck standing. However, interested customers must be aware of one thing in particular:

The car cannot move under its own power.

However, it is not because the battery pack has come off. Or, yes, it is. But it is together with all other parts of the car, which most of all look like a pile of scrap.

Because the car is a pile of junk. On the scrappers' common sales portal IAAI, no specific cause is indicated for what was probably a rather violent fire in the car.

The only thing that says about it is 'that the car has been involved in a collision'. The question then is what the car – or rather the wreckage – can cost. The value is probably not much greater than the steel price.

It is far from the first time that a rare or special car has turned up as scrap at a junkyard. In fact, this isn't even the first time that IAAI has tried to sell a Cybertruck wreck.

Just under two months ago, a water-damaged Cybertruck appeared on the same page. The car proves how appallingly little is apparently needed, because it is a total loss. Read more about it here .

All in all, electric cars can easily become part of the use-and-throw-away trend. At least when they get into accidents that require the intervention of the insurance companies.

Boosted has previously written about how a Fisker Ocean owner was paid total compensation for a car with one dent in the door. Later, it emerged that electric cars are generally up to 20 percent more expensive than petrol and diesel cars to repair when it comes to insurance damage.
