When he got there, he found out that the Cybertruck was apparently unable to charge, so the person driving it was waiting for a tow truck to get it out of there. According to the original poster, the Tesla engineer said that he doesn\u2019t know the actual range of the truck, as all RC units only display battery percentages, but that it\u2019s \u201cas good as or as better than a Model X.\u201d<\/p>\n
For some context, a base Tesla Model X with dual-motor all-wheel drive has an EPA-estimated range of 348 miles on a full charge, while the tri-motor Plaid can go up to 333 miles on a full charge, according to the EPA estimate.<\/p>\n

At the same time, a Rivian R1T has between 270 and 410 miles of range, depending on the drivetrain configuration, while the Ford F-150 Lightning offers between 240 and 320 miles on a full charge, depending on battery and motor specs.<\/p>\n
Regarding the battery percentage display on the truck\u2019s screen, it explains why the video featuring a Russian-speaking man who managed to film the Cybertuck\u2019s interior screens didn\u2019t show the predicted range but only the state of charge (SoC).<\/p>\n
With the first units scheduled to be delivered at the end of next month, it looks like Tesla is still figuring out some things with the Cybertruck, including range prediction.<\/p>\n
In related news, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) recently published some information regarding the Cybertruck\u2019s VIN, revealing that Tesla\u2019s first pickup could weigh less than the Ford F-150 Lightning, yet tow more and carry a higher payload than the Ford-badged EV.<\/p>\n
