Tesla Cybertruck One Month Review: Is It Worth the Hype?

From Bearded Tesla Guy.

The Tesla Cybertruck has been one of the most anticipated vehicles in recent years, capturing the imaginations of automotive enthusiasts and technology buffs alike. With its futuristic design, groundbreaking features, and the promise of redefining what a truck can be, the Cybertruck has generated a significant amount of buzz. But after a month of ownership, how does it really hold up? Is it worth the hype? In this comprehensive review, I’ll delve into the design, performance, features, and overall ownership experience of the Tesla Cybertruck.

The first thing that strikes you about the Tesla Cybertruck is its radical design. With its angular, stainless steel exoskeleton and distinctive shape, the Cybertruck looks like it has come straight out of a sci-fi movie. This design isn’t just for show; the exoskeleton is made from ultra-hard 30X cold-rolled stainless steel, providing superior strength and durability.

In terms of aesthetics, the Cybertruck is polarizing. Some people love its bold, futuristic look, while others find it too unconventional. During the month of ownership, it’s clear that the Cybertruck garners a lot of attention on the road. Whether at traffic lights or in parking lots, people often stop to take pictures or ask questions.

Performance is a key area where the Tesla Cybertruck aims to excel. The Cybertruck comes in three variants: Single Motor RWD, Dual Motor AWD, and Tri Motor AWD. For this review, we focused on the Dual Motor AWD version, which offers a balanced mix of performance and efficiency.

With a 0-60 mph time of just 4.1 seconds, the Cybertruck is incredibly quick for a vehicle of its size. The instant torque provided by the electric motors makes acceleration feel effortless, and the Cybertruck handles surprisingly well thanks to its low center of gravity and adaptive air suspension. Off-road capabilities are equally impressive, with the Cybertruck easily tackling rough terrain and inclines.

In terms of range, the Dual Motor AWD variant offers 340 (320 as configured) miles on a full charge. Real-world testing over the month showed that this estimate holds up well, even with varied driving conditions and the use of features like air conditioning and the infotainment system.

Stepping inside the Tesla Cybertruck, you’re greeted with a minimalist interior that contrasts sharply with its rugged exterior. The cabin is spacious, with seating for up to five people. The seats are comfortable and supportive, making long drives a pleasant experience.

The dashboard is dominated by a massive 17-inch touchscreen, which controls almost all of the vehicle’s functions. This centralizes the user experience and eliminates the need for physical buttons. While this can take some getting used to, the interface is intuitive and responsive. Over-the-air updates mean that the software is continually improving, adding new features and enhancing existing ones.

Storage space is abundant, with a large front trunk (frunk), a sizable bed with a retractable cover, and additional compartments under the bed. This makes the Cybertruck not only stylish but also highly practical for various uses, from grocery runs to outdoor adventures.

One of the standout features of the Cybertruck is its robust construction. The exoskeleton and armored glass provide a sense of security, though it’s worth noting that the initial demonstration of the glass didn’t go as planned. Over the month, however, there have been no issues with the durability of the materials used.

Energy efficiency is another strong suit. The cost of electricity per mile is significantly lower than gasoline, and with solar panels on the horizon, the potential for energy independence is appealing. While on road trips, you don’t even need to think about where to stop to charge, the Cybertruck does it all for you!

After a month of driving, testing, and living with the Tesla Cybertruck, it’s clear that this vehicle delivers on many of its promises. Its unique design, exceptional performance, advanced technology, and practical features make it a standout in the automotive world. While it may not be for everyone, those who embrace its futuristic vision and innovative spirit will find it a rewarding and exciting ownership experience.

The Tesla Cybertruck is more than just a truck; it’s a statement about the future of transportation. If you’re considering a purchase, weigh the pros and cons carefully, but rest assured that the Cybertruck is a capable, cutting-edge vehicle that pushes the boundaries of what a truck can be. After a month of ownership, we can confidently say that the Tesla Cybertruck is indeed worth the hype.
