Cybertruck Accessories: What You Actually Need

The Cybertruck is unlike any other vehicle on the road, and its accessories ecosystem is still maturing. But there are already several essential accessories that every Cybertruck owner should consider — especially for protecting the bed and using it as an actual truck.

Here's what's available now and worth buying.

Tonneau / Bed Cover

The Cybertruck doesn't come with a tonneau cover (Tesla's powered version is a separate purchase with a long waitlist). Third-party options fill the gap.

Our pick: Hansshow Power Tonneau Cover — A powered retractable cover that opens and closes at the push of a button. Aluminum slat construction, weatherproof seals, and a locking mechanism for security. At $1,200-1,600, it's a significant investment, but it's the most popular aftermarket tonneau for the Cybertruck right now.

Why You Need a Tonneau Cover

An open truck bed has four problems:

  1. Weather — Rain, snow, and dust get on your cargo
  2. Security — Anyone can see and reach your stuff
  3. Aerodynamics — An open bed creates drag, reducing range
  4. Debris — Highway driving blows dirt and debris into the bed

A tonneau cover solves all four. For a $100K+ vehicle, protecting the bed is a no-brainer.

Bed Mat

The Cybertruck's stainless steel bed looks great, but it will scratch and dent with regular cargo use. A bed mat is essential if you plan to actually use the truck bed.

Our pick: TuxMat Cybertruck Bed Mat — Custom-molded heavy-duty TPE mat that drops into the bed with a perfect fit. The raised texture prevents cargo from sliding, and the thick material absorbs impacts. Waterproof and easy to clean with a hose.

Stainless Steel Scratches

Stainless steel is corrosion-resistant, but it scratches easily. Tools, lumber, bikes, coolers — anything with a hard or rough surface will leave marks on the bed floor. A bed mat prevents this from day one.

Tailgate Pad

If you haul bikes, a tailgate pad is the simplest and cheapest solution for the Cybertruck.

Our pick: BougeRV Cybertruck Tailgate Pad — Thick padding protects the tailgate from bike frames, holds up to 5 bikes, and includes a camera access flap. At $60-90, it's a fraction of the cost of a Cybertruck-compatible bike rack ($400-800+).

Interior Essentials

The Cybertruck interior benefits from the same types of accessories as Model 3 and Model Y:

  • Screen protector — The Cybertruck's 18.5-inch touchscreen is even larger (and more expensive to replace). A tempered glass protector is essential.
  • Floor mats — All-weather mats protect the Cybertruck floor from mud, snow, and construction site debris. 3D MAXpider and TuxMat both make Cybertruck-specific sets.
  • LED interior lights — The same dim factory light issue exists in the Cybertruck. LED upgrade kits make a big difference.

The Cybertruck-specific accessory market is expanding rapidly. As more owners take delivery and manufacturers develop products, expect many more options in the categories above.

What's Coming

The Cybertruck accessories market is still in its early stages. Here's what we're watching for:

  • Tesla's official powered tonneau cover — When it finally ships widely, it will likely be the best option due to tight integration
  • Bed rack systems — Overland and work truck rack systems for the Cybertruck bed rails
  • More floor mat options — Additional brands entering the Cybertruck market with competitive pricing
  • Frunk organizers — The Cybertruck frunk is large enough to benefit from organization accessories
  • Powered running boards — Third-party options to make entry/exit easier given the Cybertruck's height

We'll update this guide as new products become available.

Frequently Asked Questions

What accessories does the Cybertruck actually need?
At minimum: a bed mat to protect the stainless steel floor (it scratches easily), and a screen protector for the 18.5-inch touchscreen. If you use the bed for cargo, a tonneau cover is strongly recommended for weather protection and security. Floor mats are also essential if you're using the truck for actual truck things.
Does the Cybertruck come with a tonneau cover?
Not by default. Tesla offers an official powered tonneau cover as a separate purchase, but availability has been limited with long wait times. Third-party options like the Hansshow power tonneau cover are available now and fill the gap.
Will the stainless steel Cybertruck bed scratch?
Yes. Stainless steel is corrosion-resistant and stronger than regular steel, but it scratches when cargo slides across it. Tools, lumber, bikes, and even coolers can leave marks. A bed mat prevents this and should be considered required equipment for anyone who plans to use the bed.
Are Cybertruck accessories expensive compared to Model 3/Y?
Generally yes, because the Cybertruck is larger, fewer manufacturers make accessories for it (less competition), and the vehicle itself is more expensive. A Cybertruck tonneau cover costs $1,200-1,600 vs. nothing for a sedan. A bed mat is $150-200. However, interior accessories like screen protectors and organizers are similar in price to Model 3/Y equivalents.
Can I use Model Y accessories in my Cybertruck?
No, with rare exceptions. The Cybertruck has completely different dimensions for floor mats, screen protectors, and cargo accessories. Some universal accessories (Faraday key pouches, cable organizers) work across all Tesla models, but anything fitment-specific must be Cybertruck-specific.
