In the video: Tesla Cybertruck or GMC Hummer EV, which is faster?

Tesla has finally delivered the first copies of its electric car Cybertruck and at the same time confirmed a large number of technical and performance data for the production model.

During a special event organized by the manufacturer last Thursday at its headquarters in Austin, Texas, the big boss Elon Musk was pleased that the three-engine variant, nicknamed “Cyberbeast”, accelerates from 0 to 100 km / h in just 2.7 seconds. In one video, we can even see a Cybertruck hit a Porsche 911 (obviously a base model)… even while towing a trailer transporting another 911.

This is all obviously a show for Tesla to look good, but what about the Cybertruck going up against a truck of its kind? To be clear, the site team carwow put him in a speeding fight against a GMC Hummer EV in Version 1 The results are presented to us in the following YouTube video.

The Cybertruck’s comfortable ride to the finish line is no surprise. Its lighter weight (6,850 lbs vs. 9,063 lbs) makes up for its lower power (845 hp vs. 1000 hp). He completed the quarter mile in 11.2 seconds, eight-tenths of a second slower than his home rival.

Another test by five people in a Tesla car ended up changing nothing, completing the distance in 11.5 seconds.

Now that we know who is the fastest, which of these two behemoths is the most hardworking when it comes to transporting or hauling heavy loads? No need to wait for the new video: The Cybertruck has a payload capacity of 2,500 pounds and tows up to 11,000 pounds, officially, while the Hummer EV has limits of 1,300 pounds and 7,500 pounds, respectively.

As for the off-road skills, we are very eager to see the results.
