Presented in 2019 but rumored ever since 2012, the Tesla Cybertruck has finally become available for retail clients starting in late 2023. It's one of the most hyped products released by the US automaker, which is a tall order since the company's roster also includes things like the 1,020-hp Model S and Model X Plaids or the best-selling Model Y crossover.
The Cybertruck can be configured with RWD, but you'll have to wait until 2025 to pay the lower $61k starting fee, and you'll also settle with a zero to 60 mph (96 kph) sprint time of 6.5 seconds and just 250 miles of all-electric range. Today, anyone can opt for a $80k AWD version with 340 miles of range, 4.1-second time to 60 mph, 112-mph top speed, and 600 horsepower and take delivery later this year.
Also, a flagship Cyberbeast version packs all the goodies from ten bucks below the $100k threshold – 845 horsepower, 320 miles of range, 2.6s to 60, 130-mph top speed, and an 11,000-pound towing capacity. However, especially since Tesla is scaling up production and now finally has enough 4680 cells to make even 1,000 Cybertrucks per week, maybe some people might think these are not nearly as many versions as they would like to see.
No worries because the imaginative realm of digital car content creators has decided to do something about this conundrum. While the aftermarket world is preoccupied with wraps, beefier wheels, and all sorts of subtle things like camping accessories, the parallel universes of vehicular CGI dare to dream a more exotic vision. But there is no need to take our word for granted as we have a proper example, or two, or even three.
More precisely, Sugar Chow, the virtual artist better known as sugardesign_1 on social media, has decided to present every worker's EV dream - another kind of Cybertruck workhorse. His digital variant ditched the flush bed style and aerodynamic tonneau cover in favor of a tilting bed box, dropped a ladder frame chassis under the stainless-steel skin, put steelies instead of alloy wheels, and also made the EV pickup truck a dually model.
But, as it turns out, that was just the beginning. So, the 'real' CyberTruck is now joined by another couple of siblings, the Tesla 'CyberArmy' model with beefy all-terrain wheels and tires, plus the box bed fitted with a rocket launcher setup and a huge machine gun. Naturally, the pickup truck now also sports a sandy appearance to complete the CGI makeover. Also, for long hauls and big payloads, the pixel master then created the 18-wheel-style Tesla CyberSemi truck, and the fans are now asking for RV setups and Single Cab eight-foot bed variants, too!
