The range is 240 km per day. Energy consumption is 130 kWh per 100 km. Net of the solar/regenerative energy it consumes about 100 kWh per 100 km, about 1 ⁄ 3 the energy needed by a comparable diesel engine. The truck weighs eight tons, with a gross vehicle weight of 18 tonnes and costs 380,000 Swiss francs.
Docs submitted by Tesla to the EPA reveal the Cybertruck's battery capacity, which we previously estimated at around 128 kWh. Just how far off were we, though?
