Since Elon Musk unveiled the design of the Tesla Cybertruck in 2019, it has been part of many conversations not only about trucks but also the power or electric cars. With Its unique design, promise of power coupled with Tesla's car tech - the Cybertruck is highly sought after.
Since it became publicly available in 2023, the Cybertruck has garnered opinions and reviews both positive and negative. Say what you want about it but the Cybertruck has captured and even showed the way that electric powered trucks have a market. Let's take a look at some of the features that made Tesla's vision for a truck a sight to behold.
Designed for Power
The Tesla Cybertruck will immediately catch your attention because of its unique design. This is not your regular truck - it's sharp "edgy" angles that makes you think it's designed for space travel, a truck that doesn't feature buttons but touch controls even on its door and just the general feel that you're taking a bold new step into the future with this unique type of truck powered by Tesla's incredible technology. Although its design did not attract general positive reviews, it's still a sight to behold when you see it on the road.
Under the hood, the Cybertruck can reach top speed of up to 130mph on its "Cyberbeast" version with 0-60mph in just 2.6 seconds. Its most powerful model comes with an 845 horsepower engine with tri-motor, all-wheel drive capability.
Cybertruck Interior Space
Space is one thing that the Cybertruck that's generally agreed to excel on.
According to the Tesla official website, the legroom in the front measures at 41.09" with headroom and shoulder room at 41.69" and 63.31" respectively.
At the back, passengers also enjoy 40.90" legroom, 39.05" headroom and 39.05" shoulder room. Because of its design, the passengers at the back will have a relatively smaller space but still an impressive space nonetheless.
The glass roofing also contributes to the open feel of the Cybertruck with its capacity of transporting up to six passengers. If additional storage space is needed, under seat storage and foldable rear seats are also an option.
As a truck, it also features a relatively impressive storage space. Its bed is measured at 51.00" x 72.92" with a maximum height of 28.66" - it can offer a lot of space compared to the base model of an F-150 but because of its unique truck design the maximum height only covers a few inches up front. The height at the back of the truck is at 19.89" only.
The beauty of the Cybertruck also rests on the optional accessories available for various purposes. You can easily make the Cybertruck a tailgating juggernaut with its optional cooler box that can be added just below the bed plus a jump seat that can be installed in the tailgate. If you're into camping, Cybertruck also has a tent accessory that can transform the vehicle into a tent with all the conveniences you could get from the truck itself.
Tesla Technology Powering the Cybertruck
Another selling point of the Cybertruck is the fact that it still comes with the best Tesla car technology it can offer. Featuring a touch screen central console with HD graphics, it allows the driver to be in the front seat of everything - including a 360-degree view thanks to its camera.
The use of steering-by-wire also increases accuracy and control of the vehicle. Speaking of control, its supervised self-driving also helps drivers navigate and ride comfortably. As of this writing, full autonomous driving or their autopilot is not yet available. However, the software updates and future iterations of the vehicle may soon enable this feature.
Size, Comfort, Technology and Options
The Cybertruck is a big machine powered by Tesla's software that ensures comfort, safety and even some form of self-driving mechanism. It's built for heavier loading but with an impressive interior space for a good number of passengers. Its list of accessories is also impressive which allows owners to upgrade and modify their Cybertrucks to their intended purpose.
