Tesla Cybertruck Suspension Deep Dive and RTI Test | Car and Driver

1. That RTI result has to be intentional

2. Try to resale it in a few years .. a car in an investment ,, EV's are disposable cars , EV's will come to an end soon ,, Synthetic fuel with Zero emissions , that will work in any Ice engine in coming soon ,, Nas Car has already been using it ,,, ,, The waste involved with EV's is is Unsustainable ,, the most waste is our time …… yes your life is very short and I refuse to waste it at a charger ,, Not only that China is the leader in Spy tech , and leading the EV market , drive a china car by the bank it steals all our info hmmm!!!!!!!!, Governments will shut EV production down just for that reason alone ,, Elon and China can send additional charges through software , a dollar here a dollar there to fund their crazy ideas ,, and They kill 2 birds with 1 stone Elon and China

3. Great video, but it is unfortunate that you didn't test "Rock Mode" as that would have likely completely changed the suspension flex result. From the Cybertruck manual: "When the ride height is Very High, the suspension system pneumatically connects the springs on the front and rear axles, increasing suspension articulation for maximum traction."

4. I would love to see you measure our Gladiator Rubicon

5. A future software update could allow way more flex by increasing the air pressure in the air dampeners that aren't touching the ground. Each dampener can be controlled individually so when it detects wheel slip it could push down the dampener

6. 24:10 what’s with all the creaking when you steer?

7. To check the air pressure, see service menu on screen. But yes, to fill tires with air the hubcaps must come off.

8. Seems like everyone so far who bought a Cybertruck is either a youtube reviewer or a Hollywood type. Thickest anti-sway bar I've ever seen. Air springs are always problematic (ex. Saguar), but CT owners can write big checks to keep 'er fixed. Lose electrical and lose all steering, what could go wrong?

9. You CHECK the air pressure electronically.

10. The mud guards probably come off for offroad.

11. Weird a 285/65/20 equates out to be a 33.5 inch wheel not a 35 inch, so yeah these are not 35's

12. I think they could have had something good here if the focus was on functionality.

13. it will definitely go a bit higher with the "locked diff" mode. I have no way to say how much higher though. they will 100% do it because its just a sofrware update. also because its so vertically integrated and almost all electronics are made in house and sharing the ethernet data connection, it shouldnt be really that complicated . they will never miss on the opportunity to improve a product significantly with just software which is the easiest way for tesla which is not only a car but also a software company. a
    Also looking at the air suspension , it is most likely that they could go much further and dynamically adjust the suspension height independently on each wheel. this could only work in a slow rock crawling mode because rhe airbags will take seconds to adjust, maybe about 10s from lowest to highest. I can see it outperform off road truck in artculation test with an additional 4 in in each direction

14. This truck is screaming out for some @74Weld portal hubs.

15. I'm amazed that you trust that little aluminum jack with a 7000 lb vehicle, Yes Only a quarter was lifted regardless those jacks aren't the strongest

16. Love you videos but why do you have the gladiator not at your rated top 607? Makes no sense.

17. How do you know all this? That's so much complex, detailed information on the wheels. Thank you!

18. Great video, thanks very much.

19. As much as I dislike the Honda Ridgeline, I'd buy one before I would ever consider buying a Cybertruck.

20. Too bad you didn’t try rock mode. The manual says for rock mode “When the ride height is Very High, the suspension system pneumatically connects the springs on the front and rear axles, increasing suspension articulation for maximum traction.”

21. Uffdah… This reminds me of a 1980s Cadillac which became an impossible to maintain dinosaur.
    High nifty factor, but get rid of it before the warranty is out.

22. Well the cyberturd will be completely rusted before it needs pads, so no worries there LOL

23. in most city-SUVs today (not off-roaders), like Suzuki Vitara, the rear right wheel would still push the vehicle, brake the left one to cheat the differential. TM3 would do this too in standard mode: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OwA5q9YGMJs&t=85s Why does Cybertruck not do it?

24. Next video, disconnect front swaybar then test again.

25. A week or 2 away is Telsa's Motto

26. Thanks for the excellent content. However, the Jumbo Jet is not a FBW plane as far as I’m aware.

27. Wondering if the load rating D on those tires will be sufficient as my F350 had E rated for my trailer.

28. 

29. You got some warped rotors on a new truck
