CyberTruck is a new vehicle that Tesla is introducing. It will be introduced with numerous amazing features, including windows made of armor-glass and stainless steel that won’t dent. It stands out from other trucks because it is an electric truck with a self-driving feature. CyberTruck’s release has been postponed; now, it’s anticipated for late 2023. The starting price is $39,900. Let us get deeply into its top 10 features.
1. External Built Material
We know that CyberTruck is the most hyped product. That is mainly because of its built material. The exterior is constructed of Ultra-Hard 30X Cold-Rolled Stainless Steel. It is called an exoskeleton. It is a protective casing that wraps around the truck to prevent dents and other damage. It also helps to prevent corrosion. It protects the passengers inside. But still, they are working on improving the exoskeleton shell as they are facing issues with it.
2. Armor Glass
The armor glass on Tesla’s CyberTruck is comprised of two-ply laminated glass materials. It has an external layer of glass sheet, an internal layer of glass sheet, and an adhesive sheet between them. Tesla stated that it’s non-destructible. It is bulletproof and is built in such a way that it does not get scratches or dents.
Yet Armor glass failed when struck by a steel ball. It was in a demonstration video done directly by Tesla Chief Elon Musk to show the strength of armor glass. But it failed to do so. Tesla is currently working on its improvement.
3. Tri-motor
The CyberTruck, according to the patent, has not one, not two, but three electric motors! It can accelerate from 0-62 miles per hour just in 3 seconds. It has a maximum power output of up to 600KW. The electric range is up to 500 miles. The motor used is an internal permanent magnet-synchronous reluctant motor. The tri-motor model costs around $69,900. It also has a maximum speed of 130 mph. Models with dual or single motor costs are even less than the trimotor CyberTruck model.
4. Bed (Vault)
Bed? Maybe you assumed CyberTruck was going to have a mattress in it. But that is not the case. It is called a vault. The exoskeleton protects the vault. It can carry up to 3,500 lbs (about 1587.57 kg). This vault is 100 cubic feet in size. We can control it with a button. It has a metal sliding tonneau. The vault’s unique feature is that it can be converted into a camping unit with a tent. It is expected to be 6.5 feet long. It also contains LED light strips on each side as well as a compressed air inlet for pneumatic tools. Behind the rear wheels, 240V AC outlets are placed.
5. Air Leveling Suspension
We will use air suspension to ensure a smooth ride. CyberTrucks have powerful adjustable air suspension. We may raise and lower the suspension four inches in any direction. The self-leveling suspension adjusts to the situation and environment. It provides travelers with a safe and comfortable trip. It is designed to work well on any type of road. It is available in all three types.
6. Interior
Not only the exterior but also the interior has some impressive looks. It has a squared-off steering wheel, a familiar center screen, and a plain dashboard. The center console also matches the theme of the CyberTruck. CyberTrucks don’t have a gauge cluster. As expected, we can see a long flat dashboard. It has a cool driver’s seat, vegan leather upholstery, and a big footrest on the left. The doors don’t have handles as they can sense our approach. The CyberTruck has a foldable rear center seat as well as a digital view camera in rearview mirrors.
7. Range And Battery Life
Coming to battery life, each model has different driving ranges. Single motors can produce 250 plus miles, dual motors can produce 300 plus, and tri motors produce more than 500 miles. It only takes a single charge. Tesla provides a 250kW charging cable for every model. Elon Musk announced in 2019 that a solar roof option for CyberTrucks would become available.
- The electric range is 500 miles(800km).
- It has a power output of up to 600kW.
Charging is done via a type 2 plug, and the on-board charger offers a power output of up to 11kW. We have less details on this because Tesla hasn’t given enough information regarding battery size and other factors.
8. Energy Combustion
The energy combustion of a Tesla CyberTruck is projected to be 430Wh per mile. It varies according to terrain and atmosphere. If driven at high speed in cold weather, it could combust up to 530Wh per mile. Slow speed in mild weather can sustain up to 250Wh per mile. We are aware that Tesla saves roughly $3,000 per year on gasoline and power for every 20,000 km (12427.42 mi). As a result, CyberTrucks will likely conserve a significant amount of gas. Here is a table that shows how much gas Tesla saves each year:
9. Passenger Security
In terms of safety, the CyberTruck provides enough protection for passengers. The adoption of the exo skeleton protects passengers from collisions and accidents. It also prevents dents and corrosion. Air suspension kicks in and delivers a smooth ride for passengers in tough terrain. Autopilot never lets the truck in an accident. Sensors and cameras on the car will detect vehicles and other dangers on the roads. Without a question, CyberTrucks are a safer option for public use. Tesla has a proven record for having the best safety measures. Airbags, armor glass, and other basic safety features are also included in the CyberTruck. The Exoskeleton, which is built of poly composite material, will be critical in terms of protection.
10. Price And Other Release Info
Price range is as important as all these features. A vehicle with all of these technologies will be expensive, but Tesla’s CyberTruck has the lowest starting price of $39,900. We already know that this truck comes in three varieties. Each has different output and specs. So, the price also varies for each model. The rear wheel model costs around $39,900, dual motors cost around $49,900, and tri-motor costs around $69,900. CyberTrucks should qualify for the federal tax credit when they are eventually released. Work on the CyberTruck officially started in 2019. Elon Musk stated that it would be released in the summer of 2023, however it is currently reported that it would be released later that year.
