A Tesla Cybertruck owner recently shared his experience in a video after having driven the electric truck 50,000 miles across the United States and Canada.
YouTube host Teslatino shared his road trip story, covering trips across the country and a wild drive to the Arctic Circle. His truck came with cool modified adventure rig, including a cargo rack and a carbon fiber rooftop, also Starlink Satellite internet.
The truck’s range changed since buying. EPA rated it at 318 miles for a dual-motor Cybertruck, but now it gets around 309 miles. Teslatino tracked his energy use carefully.
He used 25,628 kWh of power, averaging 513 Watt-hours per mile. His highway driving and speed might explain the higher numbers. Most of his miles came from fast highway trips.
Towing performance surprised him. Driving uphill with a trailer, he got 120 miles of range. Downhill towing stretched to 163 miles.
He believes the Cybertruck is an ideal pickup for most truck owners seeking durability, and performance, but suggests those towing more than 100 miles daily may need another option.
Teslatino also thinks the Cybertruck works great for most truck owners wanting versatility.
Tesla first released the Foundation Series launch edition of the Cybertruck, which Teslatino owns, last November.
Early deliveries began in December. The company stopped building the Foundation Series in October and started accepting orders from non-reservation holders in August.
In October, Tesla announced that the Cybertruck reached a positive gross margin for the first time and expects annual production to exceed 125,000 units.
