Powershare Isn’t Coming Anytime Soon
Tesla has officially informed Cybertruck owners that the highly anticipated Powershare with Powerwall feature won’t arrive until mid-2026. This advanced tech, which would let the Cybertruck power your home or other devices, has been delayed again—by nearly two years.
Powershare was originally pitched as a key benefit of the Cybertruck. It promised to turn the electric beast into a mobile energy source for homes, tools, appliances, or even other EVs. But now, the release keeps slipping—and owners are running out of patience.
Vehicle-to-Home, Still Just a Promise
Powershare includes V2L (vehicle-to-load) and V2H (vehicle-to-home) capability. That means it could, in theory, keep your lights on during a blackout or power your job site off-grid.
But despite being a headline feature in the Foundation Series launch, it’s still not available on any Cybertruck. And yes, Foundation buyers paid a premium for that feature.
In an email sent to owners, Tesla stated:
“The Powershare with Powerwall feature is still in development… We’re using this time to ensure compatibility across all Powerwall generations and to build additional features.”
Engineering Proves Tougher Than Expected
According to Cybertruck Lead Engineer Wes Morrill, the delay isn’t just about software. It’s about safely syncing two powerful battery systems—the truck and the Powerwall—without blowing out your grid.
“Two grid-forming devices need to negotiate who forms and who follows, based on charge level. And they must do this without a network, across multiple hardware generations.”
In short? It’s complicated.
Owners Are Frustrated—and Rightfully So
Tesla has long hyped Powershare as a next-gen energy game changer. But for many, this feels like a bait-and-switch. The tech was supposed to be live last year, and now it’s delayed another 18 months.
Sure, the honesty is refreshing—but Cybertruck fans aren’t buying excuses anymore. They want delivery, not just emails.
