A spokesperson for the auctioneer said: “Tesla’s latest marvel, the Cyberbeast, will make its auction debut in an online event, exclusively through Sotheby’s Motorsport.
“The auction, open for bidding through 9 April, presents a unique opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts to acquire the very hard-to-acquire CyberBeast.”
Colleen Cash, President of Sotheby’s Motorsport, said: The Cybertruck and Cyberbeast have seized the global spotlight in a manner unlike any other vehicle launch before, marking a pop culture phenomenon.
“We believe that the Cyberbeast will become an iconic symbol of this era, much like the DeLorean has for past generations.
“This auction represents a rare opportunity to own a piece of automotive history.”
The listing, as reported by What’s The Jam, reads: “Known for disruption, Tesla’s entry into the EV truck segment elicited a response.
“Longer, wider, faster—and loaded with unprecedented innovation beside its contemporaries, the pickup redefined an American mainstay.
“Choice in single, dual, and tri-motor variants yielded a spectrum of not-so-mild to wild combined with the automaker’s signature of quiet luxury beneath stainless-steel bodywork.
