"Cybertruck's Real-World Test Reveals 254-Mile Range, Falling Short of EPA Estimates"

The Tesla Cybertruck underwent its first real-world range test by Out of Spec Studios, resulting in a 254-mile range on a single charge, which is below the expected 318-mile range adjusted for tire size from Tesla's listed 340 miles. The test was conducted at a consistent speed of 70 mph in 45 degrees Fahrenheit weather, which can affect EV performance. Tesla has acknowledged factors like temperature, tire size, and payload can impact range and has introduced a Range Extender, which will be available later in the year. The full test results are available for viewing online.

"Cybertruck Achieves 254-Mile Range in Real-World Highway Test"

The Tesla Cybertruck's first highway range test revealed it could only travel 254 miles on a full charge at 70mph, significantly less than the expected 320 miles for the tri-motor version and 318 miles for the dual-motor with all-terrain tires. This result is concerning for potential buyers, especially considering the impact of colder climates and towing on the range. The Cybertruck's range can be extended by an additional 130 miles with a Range Extender, but at a high cost and with a significant space trade-off in the truck's bed.

"Tesla Cybertruck's First Public Road Crash Results in Minor Injuries"

A Tesla Cybertruck was involved in a collision with a Toyota Corolla in San Mateo County, California. The accident occurred on Highway 35 and Page Mill Road, with the Toyota, driven by a 17-year-old, hitting a dirt embankment and then crossing into the Cybertruck's path. The 32-year-old Cybertruck driver sustained minor injuries but declined hospitalization. The condition of the Toyota driver and the passengers in the Tesla is unknown. The Cybertruck, which was released last month in the U.S., was not in self-driving mode at the time of the crash.

"Cybertruck's First Collision: Minor Injuries in Bay Area Encounter with Corolla"

A Tesla Cybertruck was involved in a head-on collision with a Toyota Corolla in Palo Alto, California, leaving the Corolla severely damaged while the Cybertruck appeared relatively unscathed. The accident, which was captured on dashcam footage and shared on Reddit and YouTube, occurred when the Corolla, driven by a 17-year-old, hit a dirt embankment and veered into the Cybertruck's lane. The Cybertruck was not in self-driving mode, and the only reported injury was a suspected minor one to the Cybertruck driver, who refused medical transport. Safety experts have previously raised concerns about the Cybertruck's potential to cause damage in collisions due to its stiff steel structure.
