Tesla Cybertruck beats Ram TRX in drag race but loses durability showdown with Ford F-150

YouTuber MADMAXC7 staged a drag‑race between a Tesla Cybertruck and a Ram 1500 TRX in the United States. The Cybertruck accelerated faster and crossed the finish line well ahead of the gas‑powered TRX, prompting the creator to note its superior utility, towing capacity and overall performance.

In a separate series, YouTuber Cody “WhistlinDiesel” Detwiler conducted a durability test that culminated in remotely launching a Cybertruck into a stationary Ford F‑150 at an estimated 111 mph. The impact ripped the F‑150’s cab from its chassis and generated a fireball, while the Cybertruck’s stainless‑steel body remained partially intact and its battery did not ignite. Despite the Cybertruck’s structural resilience, Detwiler awarded the overall durability win to the Ford, citing that the Cybertruck required multiple repairs during the series while the F‑150 never needed dealer service.
