Elon Musk hits back at Trump after president said he didn’t want to strip Tesla boss of subsidies
A YouTuber took Tesla’s Cybertruck on a ride to see if it can actually hit its advertised 320-mile range, only to find out that its could only reach 79% of the target.
When YouTuber Kyle Conner, known on the platform as Out of Spec Motoring, livestreamed an unofficial range test of the Cyberbeast model of the long-awaited electric pickup truck, it only lasted 254 miles before needing another charge.
Per Tesla’s website, the Cyberbeast — which retails for a cool $99,990 — can last as long as 320 miles on a full charge, which could take anywhere from seven to roughly 14.5 hours to achieve depending on the charging socket, according to international electric car database EV Compare.
During Conner’s five-hour livestream, which was earlier reported on by Business Insider, he drove the vehicle on a highway in Texas for about 70 miles per hour, on a night when temperatures were around 45 degrees.

In the video, Connor set out to drive his Cybertruck from a 100% charge until the battery died.
When the steel truck notified Connor that it was left with just a 1% charge and 12 miles to go, he pulled it into a mall parking lot, where he looped around the shopping center until the car came to a complete stop.
Representatives for Tesla did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
Tesla, which released a tri-motor all-wheel drive (AWD) Cyberbeast, dual-motor AWD model and rear-wheel drive (RWD) model of the Cybertruck in North America in December 2023, offers a range extender, which it says increases the vehicle’s mileage to over 470.
