Exclusive 2024 Tesla Cybertruck Full Review

[EndtheMadnessNow]

Best review I've seen so far...

Cammisa explains the engineering behind Tesla's controversial pickup truck, including its stainless-steel ("HFS") exoskeleton construction, enormous aluminum castings and structural battery pack. He attends a live side-impact crash test in Tesla's Crash Lab that demonstrated how tough the skin is. And then, of course, tries to dent it with a sledgehammer. Or BFH, for those who know.

The similarities with the DeLorean go way beyond the stainless exterior — in fact, the Cybertruck most closely resembles the famed Lamborghini LM002 pickup — a V12-powered dogleg 5-speed off-roader, dubbed "Rambo Lambo," that was as fast as a sports car. In fact, Jason reads an excerpt from the original Car and Driver magazine review of the LM002, and everything said applies directly to the Cybertruck.

Including that the Cybertruck Cyberbeast is the quickest-accelerating pickup truck in history. Watch as it leaves the previous champion (the Rivian R1T) for dead, hitting 60 mph in just 2.6 seconds and blasting through the quarter-mile in 11.0 seconds at 119 mph. Cammisa reran the test on untreated (non-VHT) asphalt and got the same numbers — and marvels at how consistently the Cybertruck accelerated. Even with the Battery SoC in the mid-30-percent range after hours of consecutive runs, it still hit 60 in 2.6 seconds, and had only lost 0.3s at the quarter mile.

That newfound consistency is partially due to the new 4680 Gen 2 batteries, which are far larger than Tesla's previous 18650 and 2170 batteries, and are manufactured in-house.

The Cybertruck is nearly twice as efficient as the Hummer EV, thanks to a Lotus-like obsession with efficiency. With a battery pack of just 123 kWh, it's expected to receive an EPA Range of over 310 miles.

And the Cybertruck is even lighter than the Rivian R1T, Hummer, and Lightning — Cammisa weighed them all.

CURB WEIGHT:

Interesting how the Tesla truck is mainstreaming armored cars. Look for this in next wave of car sales. But will need to create a major uptick of localized violence to sell. Violence plus the "cool" factor. Cool to be fearful. It's a Mind controllers dream.

I was just talking with my son about this yesterday. 

I didn't see it in the post, so I'd like to add the price tags.

2 wheel drive model 68,000
4 wheel drive model 79,990
4 wheel upgraded model 100,000


Check out the interior. There's almost nothing to it and those seats look as comfortable as a school desk chair.

I do like how the truck has the camping pop ups.  

That's it though. Other than that I'm not a fan of this cyber truck.

I am shocked at the speed and acceleration of it. Thats pretty darn fast imo.

I watched a video where the cyber truck was pulling a Porsche on a trailer and beat a Porsche in a 1/4 mile race. (Not sure I believed it tho)

At those prices I'd rather buy a comfy F350 diesel work truck. Yea, I was surprised at the speed & acceleration too.

On that note, the Cybertruck might work wonderfully at Musk's future Mars colony, but probably not in Australia...this Aussie is a hoot!
