Cybertruck: A Polarizing Powerhouse (according to Motorweek)
The Tesla Cybertruck: A Polarizing PowerhouseThe Tesla Cybertruck is undoubtedly one of the most polarizing vehicles on the market, and our recent first drive, featured in a MotorWeek YouTube video, only reinforced this reputation. With its unique design and impressive performance, the Cybertruck has cemented itself as a serious contender in America's competitive pickup truck scene.
During our drive, we got behind the wheel of a sleek, satin black-wrapped Cybertruck. While it may look a bit different than the stainless steel original, its unmistakable shape is still a head-turner. Compared to the Ford F-150 Lightning, the Cybertruck is slightly shorter and narrower, featuring a 6-foot bed with a robust 2,500-pound payload capacity and a towing capacity of up to 11,000 pounds.
This particular model came equipped with the tri-motor powertrain, affectionately dubbed "Cyberbeast." With a jaw-dropping 845 horsepower and 864 lb-ft of torque, it can go from 0 to 60 in just 2.5 seconds. The driving experience is enhanced by its yoke-style steering wheel and a minimalistic cockpit design, which may take some getting used to, especially for those accustomed to traditional steering wheels.
As we navigated various driving modes, the Cybertruck displayed remarkable comfort and handling, although it’s worth noting that wind noise becomes more pronounced at higher speeds. Despite its quirks, the Cybertruck manages to impress with its smooth ride and rapid acceleration.
For those who may be skeptical about this futuristic truck, it’s essential to recognize that while it may not be for everyone, it certainly has its merits. The Cybertruck’s unique aesthetics and innovative features are bound to attract attention, whether you love it or hate it.
