WARNING: Tesla assumes no responsibility for
damage or injuries resulting from installing and
using a carrier or crossbars, for any omissions in

Carrying Accessories
CAUTION: The hitch assembly is designed to
support vertical loads up to 160 lb (72 kg).
Exceeding this maximum weight can cause
damage.
The hitch receiver is designed to support vertical loads
up to 160 lb (72 kg). When carrying bicycles, skis, or
other items on the Cybertruck's hitch, always check to
ensure that the maximum weight is not exceeded. When
the carrier weighs 40 lbs (18 kg), the weigh threshold is
sufficient for carrying two bicycles weighing
approximately 60 lb (27 kg) each, or four items
weighing approximately 30 lbs (14 kg) each.
CAUTION: An accessory carrier attached to the
rear of Cybertruck may obscure your view from
the rear view mirror and the rear camera.
Follow the instructions provided with your accessory
carrier to install onto Cybertruck. Observe all regulations
and legal requirements in your state/region that apply to
carrying accessories.
Cybertruck includes the wiring necessary for using an
accessory carrier equipped with lights (see
Connections on page
109). Cybertruck also includes
Trailer Mode software (see
When you connect an accessory carrier's
wiring harness, Cybertruck detects a
connection for trailer lights and displays
this indicator on the touchscreen to
indicate that Trailer Mode is disabled.
When carrying accessories, periodically confirm that the
accessory carrier and its cargo remain secure at all
times, and if applicable, that the lights on the accessory
carrier are working.
