When Elon Musk claimed that the Tesla Cybertruck could function as a “Cyberboat” for a short period, many were skeptical. However, a popular YouTuber recently put this claim to the test – and the results were nothing short of amazing!
Real-World Water Test
In the latest video, the YouTuber drove the Cybertruck through deep water, testing its ability to stay afloat and move on the surface. Surprisingly, the Cybertruck not only waded through water with ease but also appeared to glide over it, almost like a boat.
Images from the video show the Cybertruck tackling deep water without significant issues. Thanks to its sealed underbody and electric drivetrain – which doesn’t rely on air intake like traditional combustion engines – the vehicle can traverse water without stalling.
Can the Cybertruck Really Become a “Cyberboat”?
Elon Musk previously stated that the Cybertruck could function as a boat for a short period, enough to cross rivers or small lakes. However, he also emphasized that this does not mean the vehicle can permanently replace a proper boat.
This real-world test demonstrates the Cybertruck’s potential in emergency situations or extreme terrains. With further improvements, Tesla might even develop an upgraded “Cyberboat” version in the future.
What’s the Internet Saying?
After the video was posted, social media exploded with reactions from surprised and impressed users. Many admitted they had doubted Musk’s original claim, but this test proved otherwise.
- One user commented: “Cybertruck is not just a vehicle; it’s a revolution in design and functionality!”
- Another joked: “Maybe Tesla should start selling paddles and an outboard motor as accessories!”
Conclusion
This real-world test confirms that the Tesla Cybertruck can, under certain conditions, function as a “Cyberboat.” This not only enhances its versatility but also strengthens Tesla’s reputation for pushing technological boundaries in the EV industry.
