Some netizens posted a video showing that a Tesla Cybertruck pickup truck and a car collided recently in Mianyang, Sichuan. There is no information on the Cybertruck's domestic crash on the Internet before, and this accident may also be the first domestic crash of the Cybertruck.
The video shows that because the Cybertruck uses a stainless steel body, its hardness is significantly higher than that of a car.Only the front part of the Cybertruck was detached and deformed, while the sedan was pushed onto the green belt in the middle of the road. The front of the passenger side was severely damaged, and the hood, headlights, and bumper were all damaged.
Netizens joked: "Tesla Cybertruck crashed, and no paint fell off", "Cybertruck's body is so hard, how do you deal with the sheet metal?"
It is understood that Tesla Cybertruck has not yet been put on sale in China, and the vehicles on the road are all imported.
Previous reports showed that all Cybertrucks legally on the road in China are parallel imported bicycles with 3C certification.Its dual-motor version has a retail price of over 2 million yuan, and the three-motor high-performance version has a retail price of about 2.68 million. The price of scarce existing cars is even higher;
At the same time, due to its pickup nature, the vehicle is restricted in some cities, has a mandatory scrappage period of 15 years, and does not have Tesla’s official warranty or after-sales service.
For comparison, the Cybertruck is priced at US$69,990 (approximately RMB 485,000) in the US market, and the domestic entry-level version is already more than four times that of the US market.
