The YouTube channel Tailosive EV recently updated the video. The anchor went to the Tesla showroom in San Diego, California, and learned from the showroom manager that the Cybertruck’s battery capacity is 123 kWh. This confirmed the previously leaked information, showing that the Cybertruck is fully charged. The electric range is only 267 miles (approximately 429.69 kilometers).
Compared to similar all-electric pickups like the Ford F-150 Lightning or Rivian R1T, the 123 kWh battery capacity is less than ideal. When Musk announced the Cybertruck four years ago, he said it would have a range of 500 miles (805 kilometers), but it was estimated that the actual range would not reach this preset value.
The Rivian R1T is closest in size to the Cybertruck, but is heavier. There are three versions of the R1T, with a 105kWh battery that has a range of 270 miles (435 kilometers); a 135kWh battery that has a range of 352 miles (566 kilometers); and a 180kWh battery that has a range of 410 miles (660 kilometers).
For Ford F-150 Lightning models, the 98 kWh battery pack has a range of 230 miles (370 kilometers); the 131 kWh battery pack has a range of 300 miles (483 kilometers).
The Rivian R1T and Ford F-150 Lightning both use dual-motor configurations, while the Cybertruck is expected to launch a three-motor version.
It was previously reported that Tesla Cybertruck reservations have exceeded 2 million, with most potential customers choosing the dual-motor and three-motor versions. Tesla CEO Elon Musk said on a podcast on October 31 that Tesla’s goal is to produce 200,000 electric pickup Cybertrucks per year.
Explosions and leaked information show that the new car is about 5.67 meters long, 2.03 meters wide, about 1.79 meters high, and has a wheelbase of about 3.63 meters. The dual-motor version weighs about 3,028 kilograms, and the three-motor version weighs about 3,128 kilograms.
