Tesla Cybertruck Shines on 1/8 Mile Strip with Impressive Performance

The Tesla Cybertruck, known for its unique design and standout features, particularly its acceleration, has been making waves on the drag strip. Despite its unconventional appearance, the electric pickup truck has been impressing with its speed and consistency, especially considering its hefty weight and size.

A recent video shared by YouTuber DblCapCrimpin, who owns the range-topping Tesla Cybertruck Cyberbeast, showcased the truck’s performance on the 1/8 mile strip. The Cybertruck demonstrated remarkable consistency, with four out of five passes clocking in within a narrow margin. It completed the 1/8 mile in 6.88, 6.86, 6.89, and 6.95 seconds, with only a slightly slower 7.64-second pass when it encountered water.

In addition to the 1/8 mile runs, the Cybertruck also undertook timed 0-60 mph sprints, completing them in 2.68 and 2.72 seconds, respectively, with over 1g of longitudinal acceleration. The most powerful Cyberbeast version boasts an official 0-60 mph figure of 2.6 seconds, thanks to its 845 hp tri-motor setup.

These figures are impressive for a truck weighing 6,920 lbs and equipped with stock all-terrain 35-inch tires. DblCapCrimpin aims to achieve a sub-6-second 1/8 mile time with some weight reduction and stickier road-focused tires, which could significantly improve traction.

While the Cybertruck excels in shorter runs, it’s likely that ICE-powered sports cars and supercars will dominate the quarter-mile test. Nonetheless, the Cybertruck’s drag strip performance continues to showcase its impressive acceleration capabilities, further fueling excitement among Tesla enthusiasts and skeptics alike.
