Tesla Cybertruck Launches Tailgate Utility Track and Bed Gear Box for Work Purposes

Tesla recently unveiled two new accessories for Cybertruck owners, specifically designed for those who frequently use the truck bed for practical work and job site teams. The Cybertruck's official X account announced the "Tailgate Utility Track" and "Bed Gear Box," which are part of a set of five new accessories that also include a reflective jacket, spray paint cap, and an updated reflective T-shirt. The **Tailgate Utility Track** is priced at $350 / approximately HK$2,730, and this accessory transforms the folding tailgate into another mounting surface.

It consists of a single aluminum rail with T-slots for sliding accessories and offers two L-shaped rail connection points, with two load stops included in the box. The design concept is straightforward: to secure large items like lumber or coolers in the back of the truck bed, preventing them from sliding out during travel. This accessory can be directly installed on the existing tailgate and is compatible with all Cybertruck models. ![Tailgate Utility Track](https://t.co/PCAYXlFBvS) *Image source: Cybertruck X account*

The **Bed Gear Box** is priced at $985 / approximately HK$7,683, and it is a distinctly different accessory. This is a lockable aluminum storage box, measuring 55.78 inches in length, 19.8 inches in width, and 7.79 inches in height, which can be mounted on the truck bed's L-track rails and includes two internal dividers for storing smaller items. According to Tesla, the empty box weighs 57 pounds and is designed to be fixed in the truck bed without moving with each trip, providing owners with a factory-configured option as an alternative to loose toolboxes, rescue gear, or emergency supplies.

Tesla's product listing indicates that the long-range and dual-motor all-wheel-drive Cybertruck requires the additional installation of L-Tracks accessories, as the L-shaped rails are only standard in certain configurations.

Accessory Name Price (USD) Price (HKD) Dimensions (inches) Weight (lbs)
Tailgate Utility Track $350 Approximately HK$2,730
Bed Gear Box $985 Approximately HK$7,683 55.78 x 19.8 x 7.79 57

The launch of these two accessories continues Elon Musk's strategy for Cybertruck third-party accessories, first outlined at the 2023 shareholders' meeting. He stated then that the Cybertruck would come equipped with mounting points, allowing external companies and Tesla itself to continuously add equipment without redesigning the truck bed. This follows the same L-track foundation as the truck bed liner and the L-track rails under the jump seats launched last year, as well as the off-road armor kit launched through the same X account in 2025.

For owners looking to expand the L-track ecosystem, including cargo dividers, MOLLE panels, and truck bed racks, a wider selection can be found in our Cybertruck accessories lineup. Elon Musk's vision for the future extends beyond the automotive realm. He recently proposed an ambitious plan to protect Earth by launching AI satellites capable of autonomous thinking, ensuring the planet remains habitable for the next billion years. According to Musk, relying solely on solar and wind energy to replace fossil fuels is insufficient to protect humanity from extinction-level events that occur every 100 million years.

He suggests using a giant electromagnetic catapult on the moon to launch these satellites, rather than rockets, and these satellites would make continuous minor adjustments while positioned between Earth and the sun to regulate Earth's temperature. Musk shared an estimate generated by Grok, predicting that in a high sea level rise scenario, approximately 5% of Florida's land, or about 1.68 million acres, could face regular flooding by 2070. He stated that humanity has about 50 years to take action, which should be enough time for space satellites to solve any heating issues.

These innovative initiatives not only demonstrate Tesla's forward-thinking approach to technology and design but also reflect Elon Musk's grand vision for Earth and space. Tesla's spirit of innovation continues to drive the industry forward, providing new possibilities for future sustainability.
