Tesla Cybertruck Spotted Post Rollover Test
For months, Tesla had been teasing the Cybertruck’s crash tests, even playfully incorporating it into an April Fools’ joke. However, a recent video has provided concrete evidence of the truck undergoing rigorous testing. The video featured a Cybertruck on the back of a trailer, with two vehicles in transit, one concealed and the other exposed for a close inspection. What immediately caught the attention of electric vehicle enthusiasts was a sticker affixed to the exposed Cybertruck, clearly indicating a “Cybertruck Ditch Rollover” test had been conducted. While the exterior of the all-electric truck did show some signs of damage, including loose trim, a disheveled bed, cracked windows, and a crushed roof, it did not appear to be totaled by any means. The true testament to the Cybertruck’s resilience was witnessed within the cabin.
The video showcased that despite the rollover test, the vehicle’s interior remained predominantly intact. Even the recently teased rear display appeared undamaged, and the seats, while having deployed airbags, were largely unharmed. This revelation about the Cybertruck’s crash performance has significant implications for both Tesla enthusiasts and critics alike. Those who championed Tesla’s commitment to vehicle safety seem to have a compelling argument. Tesla has consistently demonstrated excellence in crash tests across its vehicle lineup, and this glimpse into the Cybertruck’s durability suggests it will be no exception.
