It’s been a busy day for Tesla, with the introduction of not one but two  new  vehicles  today  (Tesla Cybertruck and Tesla Semi). The company has made some bold claims about these new vehicles, but we wanted to focus like a laser here specifically regarding its off-roading credibility. Much of what we know so far is admittedly superficial, and plenty of time will be needed behind the wheel to know how this truck performs.

The Tesla Cybertruck.

So far, the most information we have about the performance of the truck comes from Elon Musk’s tweetstorm earlier today (more on that later). First off, it is worth noting that this new vehicle shares many design cues with its electric car siblings: sleek lines and an advanced  computerized  system. The Tesla Cybertruck even looks like a smaller version of its big brother: The Semi.

– Will it performs?

– What can we expect from an off-roading perspective?

An important thing to note is that freight trucks spend a lot  of  time  off-road. They need to navigate the winding, narrow roads, and harsh terrain while carrying heavy loads—and often at night. Tesla claims that the truck will handle this task with ease:

“We designed Model Two trucks to be like a bullet,” Musk tweeted during his live presentation. “They can go zero to 60 mph in five seconds without cargo.”

– Tesla claims the new vehicle is like a bullet, zooming across highways at speeds of up to  80  mph  in  seconds.

Of course, most freight trucking occurs on paved roads, as opposed to off-roading through the desert.

Tesla claims that its trucks can go up steep hills and even navigate themselves around obstacles on the road: “There’s a hill here, so we should be able to coast down safely without rolling.” Musk added later during his presentation.

– Tesla says it has made  the  truck  able to drive up steep hills and avoid obstacles on the road.

Much of what we know so far is admittedly superficial, but Tesla has claimed that these trucks are designed for “work” purposes—and most freight trucking occurs on paved roads or in industrial areas where off-roading is not necessary. However, we’ll continue to keep our eyes peeled for more details about the Tesla Cybertruck and share them with you as soon they become available.

• What do we know so far?
• A lot of information right now is very superficial.

Much will be written about the Tesla Cybertruck, but we wanted to focus like a laser here specifically regarding its off-roading credibility.

The truck will have a high degree of autonomy and can handle paved roads, but what kind of off-roading capabilities does it have?

How does it compare to other electric trucks?
