Despite being on the market for only a short period of time, the Tesla Cybertruck has garnered both admiration and criticism. Its front trunk has the potential to cause injury, it experiences rust problems despite being new and made of stainless steel, and it lacks comfort and refinement considering its price tag.
However, these drawbacks don’t seem to faze Tesla’s dedicated fanbase. They are captivated not only by the polarizing design but also by the impressive performance of the range-topping version, known as the Tesla Cyberbeast. This variant boasts a tri-motor setup with all-wheel drive, delivering a combined 845 horsepower. It can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.6 seconds (with roll subtracted) and reach a top speed of 130 mph.
These impressive stats are complemented by the Cybertruck’s towing capacity of up to 11,000 pounds and a payload of 2,500 pounds. In terms of range, the vehicle can travel up to 320 miles with the range extender. However, such power and capability come at a price. The top-of-the-line Cybertruck variant is estimated to start at $96,390, while the AWD model starts at $76,390, and the most affordable rear-wheel drive version begins at $57,390.
As expected, the Tesla Cybertruck has undergone various real-world tests due to its popularity online. Despite being a pickup truck, it has also proven its performance on the drag strip. However, we must emphasize the importance of conducting such races in controlled environments. In a recent video, the Cybertruck goes head-to-head with a powerful SUV, the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk, on public roads. This is a dangerous practice that not only endangers the participants’ lives but also the lives of other road users.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly in this particular case, and we would typically disregard such a video due to its illegal nature. However, we decided to share it because it involves the Tesla Cybertruck, a fascinating and controversial machine. It’s worth noting that the video is lengthy, with the race taking place towards the end.
