Do you think this result is a win or a loss for Tesla? Let us know in the comments!
its a win, but you should have charged to 100% overnight , then used PRE conditioning before you left , while still Plugged in. TESLA has Automatic DEPARTURE mode, & pre Conditioning.
also you used STOCK tires and NOT more Efficient summer ROAD tires.
It’s a win in that it isn’t a carriage of lies! 😂
@@markplott4820on the tires, I don’t think most people would put summer nor EV efficient tires on a serious off-road vehicle. It would take away from that vibe.
complete win. very well produced video thanks!
Win. That much range is perfectly acceptable for the vast majority of use cases. Okay, bitter cold day towing something big into a strong headwind uphill all the way for hundreds of miles, there are trucks one would rather have. Add in superior charging network, and probably the Cybertruck gets you there about as fast as the Rivian on a long road trip and faster than the Ford.
334 miles
In case you're wondering.
You saved me 5 minutes of my life 🙌🏻
Nice! So about 20 more miles than advertised!
Thank you 😅
334 from 100-0? Not bad.
Unfortunately you’re only supposed to use the 20-80 range & only charge to 100% for long trips. So if someone uses it like Tesla specifies to maintain 🔋health, it won’t be a full 334miles.
Tesla Fan always try to hide it on every video.
This monstrosity doesn't have a good range at all compared to its competitors.
Ty🙏
I love how the cybertruck exceeded range estimates even without aerodynamic wheel covers. So many CZcamsrs were lying.
100%
I am still curious what temperature he did the test
The aero covers look heavy so I wonder if the added wheel mass negatives the aero benefits (if there are any). They don't actually call them aero covers, so maybe they are there just for cyber aesthetics
@@glademasterI think it’s just thin plastic, can’t imagine it being more than a pound or so.
or simply driving at 70mph in cold weather, rather than in warm weather and mixed driving conditions.
The LIARS! drove the R1T and Light, 300mi and 260mi respectively on AT tires at 70mph. The CT 254mi in similar weather and aero caps on
The edmunds difference with R1T, lightning says pretty much the same
@USUG0 you forget 2 major differences.
1, the cybertruck temperature was 38-45F NOT 45 mostly around 42F a lot lower than the others.
2, the elevation the cybertruck was tested was 700ft compared to rivian and f150 at 4000ft with significant less dense air. This alone would add 20% more range to CT.
Cybertruck is the celebrity. You are just along for the ride.
Reupload?
The 500 mi range was for the tri-motor, the dual motor was around 300 + mi and the single motor was around 250 mi. at reveal in 2019
Yep, the dual motor tested here is actually +40 miles above the the reveal estimate.
@beegdawg007 Dual motor Cybertruck just sold today at the wholesale auction in Florida for $244,000 + auction fees.
@@beegdawg007 That's for the Foundation series (limited run) then the prices are $59.9K for the single motor, $79.9K for the dual motor and $89.9K for the tri motor
Generally more motors less range, unless a bigger pack is in it.
5:09 What? The 2019 dual motor which is what you tested was promised to have 300+. And you just did 300+.
It was also promised to cost $49,990 and this cost $109,990 for the foundation series DM AWD.
Someone I know just took delivery 3 weeks ago. Flew into Houston for a meeting and dinner. He picked me up at 5:30, and we went for Sushi. The 35-minute drive was 7 minutes shorter than predicted because when people saw it in their mirrors, they parted ways to slow down and take pictures. It was like riding in an ambulance the way everyone moved over. So many cars with peoples faces are in wonder and surprise. People asked if it was a movie car. It was amusing, to say the least. My takeaway was, even though I am pretty aware of what tesla is doing, it surprises me how many people are truly unaware, as this one short commute to dinner and back demonstrated. Really nice riding truck. He has both the rivian and this one.
It’s trash
I find the design very basic & ugly to be honest. I wouldn't switch the current SUVs with that. It's like driving just a piece of metal
Compare with a FORD, GMC, TOYOTA, MERCEDES G WAGON, AUDI, RANGE ROVER etc and you'll see
@@florianmukachi3957 I thought that to start with as well, but it grew on me and now I love the Lamborghini/Blade Runner/Armoured personal carrier aesthetic. The same evidently happened to 2 million other people.
Sure Elon.
Cool - I am taking delivery of my CT soon and I was getting worried about the range, nice to know it is pretty much the same as my current Tesla model Y (which is absolutely the best vehicle I have ever driven)
Just don't tow anything. You know, the reason most people buy pickups
@@kenhughes9437 in all my years with trucks I have towed plenty - I am confident that I can handle whatever ; no worries + from my model y experience; Tesla will be updating this truck via sw for the next 20 years, so what I pay for this summer will be a far better truck by the time I pass it along in my will
@@kenhughes9437 Not that many people tow with their trucks in general 😂Most just have trucks for off-roading or hauling.
However, towing with the Cybertruck that's capable of 11k Ibs is all fun and games until you take a look at how far it can go 😭
2:21 minute mark. Tesla removes aero caps because they were eating away at the tires. No fix for this. 120+ thousand dollars and plastic hub caps. Wow.
Is the temperature during the test? What temperature was the test run in. I just drove my Model X from New Jersey to Florida using route 17 to Charleston. I started at 31 degrees and was getting about 2-2.5 miles per Kilowatt. Ashe temperature went up it went over 3 miles per kilowatt. That is why I asked. Love the truck can’t wait to get mine.
It's bigger than I Thought unless you're short. Very nice on the interior. The exterior takes some getting use to.
Did you see the photos of what happened to the Ram pickup that rear ended the Cybertruck? Totaled the Ram and slightly damaged the bumper of the Cybertruck. Lesson: don't rear end a Cybertruck unless you don't like your current vehicle.
the truck you tested has an EPA range of 318 miles. It did better.
I wanted one so bad but can’t get over that low range!
334 miles. I’ll take it I’m not driving more than that in the day anyway even on a road trip I’ll stop around 250 miles so great for road trips if you ask me.
Can't wait for mine 😍😍😍
It’s a win with 48V, steer by wire sophistication, and 11kWh of 240v output after a hurricane or grid down scenario. The sad part is we still judge both people and objects by their appearance rather than their content. It might be our downfall.
some people have Paradym Paralysis
Some people don’t understand that good design = form follows function.
This is functionally speaking the best production truck (not quite) available.
Did you guys notice strong vibrations at highway speeds? Not sure if this is an issue just with ours… thanks
Awesome.
Why are owners saying on Reddit that they are getting closer to 200miles range???
original video specified 340 miles at the onset of the range test vice the 318 miles and it that video, the Cybertruck fell just six miles short at 334 miles. Now, this revamped video indicates that it surpassed the 're'-projected 318 miles. So, which one is it?
The truck managed 334 miles in our test.
340 is for the different tyres. Also the 318 is for this version WITH earocaps
This video has been corrected; 318 miles is Tesla’s estimated range for this version of the truck.
cool ... thanks for the clarification .... looking forward to more in-depth reviews.
@@edmundscars with earocaps. Your test was without, so 318 is not what tesla specified for ct without earo wheels.
Put the aero caps back on....... even more range !
I think this one was sold without them as Tesla stopped when issues arose with tire sidewall damage or something.
Edit - he mentioned at 2:23
@P the truck hes using has an EPA range of 318 miles. But in the end of the video he compares it to a truck with an EPA rang of 340 miles (which comes with aero).
The aero caps damage the wheels, which is why Tesla recalled them. So, I would not recommend putting the aero caps on regardless of how much range you get with them on.
If that travels 300+ miles on a single charge I’m very impressed .
Is this the 2nd time Edmunds posts the video?
love this. much more scientific than youtubers looking for clicks
What information did they provide?
Amazing, so bored with how all truck look the same, this will perfectly fit for 95% of all truck driver in the US.
How fast were you driving?
🚨🚨🚨
Edmunds first published this as hit piece saying the Cybertruck failed to meet range targets (despite that supposed miss being ~1%).
Twitter folks had to jump on Edmunds to make them acknowledge their false report by showing that they ran on All Terrain wheels, which have a lesser range of 318 miles and not 340 miles due to the higher rolling resistance.
Edmunds clearly has an anti Tesla bias, and it takes a Twitter community notes slap on the face to keep them honest.
Tesla Cybertruck 😍😍
Back-fire at its finest
Looks like it was driven quite a few miles not at highway speeds. The nice warm weather probably helped a bit. Expect under 300 at highway speeds.
at what speed did you go?
I'm pretty sure I saw 65 MPH
At first glance it looks like the EPA range estimates are wrong and Tesla is actually a more reliable source for range estimates. Of course in the real world all CyberTrucks won’t be driving in the perfect climate of Southern California….
Luckily I live in Southern California. Now I just need to get the CyberBeast but not before the 4680 Roadster
Yay! No negative preface top the video looks the first upload! BTW those were EPA estimates not tesla. UP TOO 500 miles. 😮💨
*second time they uploaded this video*
we updated the video to reflect that the CT exceeded Tesla's range estimate in our testing
They made an oopsie the first time giving results for different wheels and tires.
But it's nice to see journalists issue a correction. If only NBC or Fox would have the integrity to do that...
@@syspowertools3372Agreed, I think Edmunds deserves a lot of credit for issuing a correction. A lot of news sites would have left up the incorrect information.
@@wisemanofsorts6068 Edmunds prides themselves on accuracy over flashiness. I admire that.
They didn't show any evidence of this ? Where is it? He is standing beside the truck just saying it ?
i want one
I doubt that the Tesla range estimate is using your exact methodology of 60/40 driving at 40mph. More likely it is the estimate based on whatever is best to maximize the range. So yours will always be lower. No surprise
Imagine, we had no global gasoline distribution infrastructure, but electricity grid everywhere. Now someone came up with the idea of a combustion engine. Would you test it for range? Would we build a global gas distribution infrastructure?
I came here for the negative people, was not disapointed.
Try driving it in below 32 degree temp and just like how you will drive any regular vehicle and let’s see how much of that 318 number is hype. Driving EVs in ideal 72 degree temps in CA is bit of core reason why most of them fails real world driving conditions
Regular gasoline vehicles also drop in range in the winter although not as bad but depending on where you live electric vehicles are not for everyone by the right car for the right occasion
@@stopthefomo yeah but my ICE vehicle consistently beats both my Model Y and IONiQ 5 on highway driving when driven like a regular vehicle, ICE vehicles are great for fun factor, at least in current times, less range cheating by EV manufacturers would help to put more faith in EVs.
Tesla isn’t over confident in their range numbers. They are just using the EPA range rating. The EPA range rating process is just flawed when it comes to predicting real life situations.
Chanting USA! USA! Seems like some dudes actually understand!
Im guessing this mileage test was done at below highway speeds. Much of the online data from other youtubers going 60-65-70mph show a much reduced milage rating. In some cases only 240-260 mile range. I know an OTA update supposedly boosted some range in Cybertruck, but how to reconcile Edmunds data(~+60miles) with the other data out there?
All the other data is misleading as they compare it to EPA but the EPA test is different than what they were doing in their tests. If you use a standard than you should adhere to that test procedures
Our test is designed to better emulate how people drive on a day-to-day basis, including both highway and city driving.
@edmundscars your comment is correct but it is not within the specs of EPA as your temp was 60F where EPA specifies 68-86F which results to 35 mile extra range for the model-x so for the cybertruck this might even be higher.
@edmundscars also, people do not give a crap about mixed consumption, 318 miles range is good for 98% of day to day driving as they might only drive 70 miles average a day and then plugin. What is really interesting for everyone is how it performs on long road trips when you actually do use the whole battery. Then users drive 60 - 70mph mostly and wonder when they would need to charge compared to other cars.
I wonder how it does at 80 mph because that's how fast some people go in Texas
I love the cyber truck. Trust me. There are cars out there that look way worse than this. I don’t know what’s everybody’s problem. I would definitely buy this truck with no problem it comes with things trucks dream of
I feel ya on unwanted attention...happens to me in my wrx; everyone thinks I want to race (on the highway).... still can't believe Elon green lighted this thing. It's like the official truck of Minecraft. 😕
All manufacturers overestimate range. Gas too.
What happened to the first video.
Anyone else see this thing being inspired by the DeLorean?
He's a pretty good-looking dude, and driving Cybertruck means he rich. Of course she asked him out 😂
Title misleading I thought they gonna shoot at cybertruck
There's already a few of those vids lol
Does it really stop a bullet? I know it's Dent proof and should be scratch resistant not sure about the black Plastic or None Metal parts of the exterior.
Yes, assuming the bullet is not too powerful. A twitch streamer recently took his to the range and shot it, lol.
@wisemanofsorts6068 cool

Wait what 👀
Why was this video re-released? What has changed, please pin in comments or add to details of video.
we updated the video to reflect that the CT exceeded Tesla's range estimate in our testing
They rectified a mistake as they were not driving the 340 but 318 version of the cybertruck due to the tyres
No one else dared make something so futuristic. The risk on this alone is great. Hats off to Elon musk.
390 miles in a fossil fuel truck 5 minutes at the gas pump, 390 more miles... 780 miles in a day'ish.
Lol did you guys refilm this??? Lol
I think I watched this video before.
Range is the biggest issue with the cybertruck for anyone who wants to go camping ⛺️ or tow but otherwise it’s nice.
still, when comparing it to the competition, it is not significantly more efficient, which has always been a Tesla big plus, and the battery is under sized. As far as I am concerned, it is a disappointment
If you need bulletproof, this is the only choice
@@stopthefomo yeah, if they are dumb enough not to shoot you through the windows
A celebrity like Quasimodo
At a stated 40mph avg speed for the test. Not too surprised. But that's not the range that folks want to know or are worried about. Its the highway. Get back to us after an all highway test with a 65-70+mph avg speed. It won't be looking near as good.
You won't get 318 miles at 70 mph. Everybody knows that.
You wont get 45mpg in a prius at 70mph. Edmonds test is just like the EPA. Combined city and highway. As for people pretending 4 1/2 hours of driving is not long enough and 15 minutes is too long to charge, I can only assume they dont have kids and are severely dehydrated.
Have In mind that you can decide to hold Tesla as an asset or liability…think about owning more of Tesla shares or stocks…Tesla financial adviser
If you know you know. Would you do the same test with a gas powered vehicle? The CONSTANT "range anxiety" video barrage is total nonsense. Whether the video indicates a perfect range rating or not is irrelevant in my opinion because on a daily basis for the majority of drivers it's not something you think about. I own a 2020 Model Y I'm approaching 60k miles and I can tell you I've experienced range anxiety 0 times. You charge your vehicle at home overnight, you wake up and you go to work, you run your errands, you go wherever you want and you plug it in at the end of the day. IF you road trip or drive an unusually large number of miles on a particular day you utilize the supercharger network, they are everywhere and operate 24 hours a day. Perhaps the charging infrastructure for other brands would leave you high and dry, but in my opinion this battery range test/talk is beating a dead horse, just buy the damn Tesla and never look back!
Edmunds caught lying and had to release a retraction.
Or they made a simple mistake and rectified it by rereleasing the correct figures.
Pulling a measly 11,000 lbs you will only go 90 me what a joke
Why post the video twice?
This video has been corrected with the accurate Tesla-estimated range figure of 318 miles.
❤Cybertruck ⚡️🇺🇸
When you see shit on the road everyone will stop to see if it is really shit.
Just another version of a TONKA TOY. People purchasing and owning an EV UGLY TRUCK that will be out dated to it very unsafe from computer glitches and batteries that will cause fires.
What ripp off new truck. With rust😅
Cybertuck driver is like a Parent of a Child Celebrity when you accompany them. The public will only show interest on your child but not you.
I feel like this dude gets made fun of a lot idk why
Dudes chanting USA and random woman asking for an immediate date are not exactly winners I'd want around, and that level of fanaticism says a lot. 😬
The panels look so bad already lol
500 Miles Range promised! Less than half actuality?!
Who cares; only someone desperately insecure and seeking attention would buy one!
What were they thinking?
Spot on.
Or someone who can afford it can buy whatever the hell they want 🤷🏻♂️
Yeah..what? People buy these because they are fast, original, comfortable, have incredible utility, tech, on and on. You sound pretty miserable tbh…
unfortunately looks early 8-Bit Nintendo, or like one of those crazy (uncollectible) Hot Wheels "fantasy" cars targeted at kids 3-5 years of age. oh yeah, how did Tesla NOT discover in all it's testing (ref: 4 years of waiting and development) that those covers would dig into the sidewalls and possibly blow the tires...? that's just as bad as the Ultium software glitching out on the Blazer EV. i mean isn't anybody paying attention...? the Engineer overseeing development of Suspension/Wheel, and Tire had ONE JOB...!!!
A modern day Pontiac Aztec. My god that thing is embarrassingly hideous.
Ugliest POS since the Pontiac Aztec. Would rather have a Yugo.
Is this a joke? Refrigerator on wheels? You didn’t even mention the price because you know no one would actually buy it.
What a mess…and an insult to Automotive design and styling. 🤢
Useless. fully useless
Yeah ICE is worthless now
Make offroad test. This is a shit car
