In the case of the Cybertruck, the right door axle was damaged, and the massive battery likely sustained damage as well.
Photos of a car accident involving a Tesla Cybertruck, which emerged significantly damaged, are circulating online. This appears to be the first model of its kind to sustain serious damage in a collision. Images from the accident are spreading across social media.
The accident occurred in the USA, with the photo posted by user Dave Gribble, who commented, “First total loss? I bet the insurance company will be pissed.” Another user shared a photo of the car that collided with the Tesla, a Ford SUV, which is much cheaper and less durable than the Cybertruck.
However, the damages are comparable. The website podkapotou.zoznam.sk notes that the battery may have been destroyed in the crash. If these speculations are confirmed, the insurance company will most likely declare the vehicle a total loss.
The Cybertruck is unique for its construction, composed of steel plates. This technology, known as an exoskeleton, is designed to be highly impact-resistant. Fans of the vehicle have long awaited a collision to see how well it holds up in a real-world scenario.
In this particular accident, the Tesla owner reportedly escaped with only minor injuries, while the condition of the other driver is unknown. The Tesla Cybertruck is driven by many influential people, including celebrities such as Kim Kardashian, Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, and Jay-Z.
