The Tesla Cybertruck takes on the Ford F-150 to put its electric power to the test

Elon Musk has once again done one of his things, and the man who sent a car into space keeps generating controversy. The Tesla Cybertruck is the latest creation from the American company, which has managed to get everyone talking about this creature. Its futuristic look could pass for that of any concept car, but the truth is that Mr. Musk will take it into production just as we see it here, with a series of adjustments. Even so, Tesla could not contain its impatience and has already taken it out onto the street to face the all-powerful Ford F-150.

The pick-up from the oval-badged brand has an undeniable record of success behind it, but Tesla wanted to make a bold statement with its recent offspring. Without further ado, Elon Musk decided to pit these two vehicles against each other in a titanic battle, in which the winner is proclaimed to be whichever one manages to drag the other vehicle using a rope tied to both competitors.

After the preliminaries, the battle begins, with the aim of showing part of the performance of Tesla’s pick-up. The electric vehicle company has so far maintained a deafening silence about the capabilities of the Cybertruck, a vehicle that, in addition to enjoying the typical advantages of being electric, seems more powerful than the Ford F-150.

But this comparison is not entirely fair, since the F-150 unit used does not correspond to the most powerful variant, but to one of the most basic. On this premise, we witness the crushing victory of Tesla, something made possible in part not only by the all-wheel-drive system the Cybertruck will feature, but also by the instant delivery of a torque that will probably come close to 1,000 Nm in the most extreme version.

In this way, Tesla wanted to show a small glimpse of the abilities of its new offspring, which has received a warm welcome. Indeed, the American company has already received numerous orders for the new Cybertruck, a pick-up that will require a series of modifications in order to meet safety standards.

Despite the lack of information about this mysterious vehicle, Tesla has confirmed that it will reach the market in 2021. At the same time, there will be a version with two motors and a more powerful one with three, but everything points to this option not appearing until 2022.
