A new footage shows a Tesla Cybertruck being used to charge an electric tractor on a vineyard. The Cybertruck’s paintless ultra-tough stainless steel exoskeleton & other off-roading features make the Cybertruck the perfect vehicle for use on farmland.
The Cybertruck comes with a lot of firsts, not just for Tesla but for the entire automotive world. Some breakthroughs the Cybertruck introduced to the automotive world include a 48-volt low-voltage architecture, a steer-by-wire variable gain steering system…
A ground-up 4680 cell and structural battery pack design, a high-bandwidth ethernet loop that connects all components of the vehicles, industry-leading air suspension with 17 inches of ground clearance and 12 inches of suspension travel, and so on.
The Cybertruck is the first vehicle to bring all the above-mentioned breakthroughs to the automotive world.
These are all exciting; however, the Cybertruck has also introduced a number of new features to Tesla’s line-up that were available in limited form in some other vehicles.
These include rear-wheel steering, powered frunk, vehicle-to-grid capability where you can use your Cybertruck to back up power for your home, a 240-volt outlet that can output 9.4KW of power, and so on.
All the new features have made the Cybertruck a truly capable vehicle. And off these features, the Cybertruck’s ability to charge other electric vehicles has been getting a lot of attention as of late.
Tesla highlighted this feature in a new ad showing a Cybertruck coming to the rescue of a Ford F-150 Lighting that ran out of battery and was stranded by the side of the road.
This was official communication from Tesla; however, a new picture taken by a Tesla owner shows a Cybertruck using its ability to charge other EVs to good use in real life.
In the picture shared by Allen Veach on X, you can see a Cybertruck being used on a vineyard to charge another electric tractor.
The person who shared the picture captioned it: “The future charging the future,” and we couldn’t agree more.
This is wonderful to see and increases our hope for what’s to come. In addition, some of the Cybertruck’s critics have tried to pigeonhole the truck as a vehicle for soccer moms and wealthy suburbanites.
However, we would argue the Cybertruck, with its stainless steel ultra-tough exoskeleton and paintless surface, is the perfect vehicle for use in challenging situations such as on farmland.
Farmlands consist of a lot of dirt, rocks, unpaved roads, animals, chemicals, pulling large objects, and so on; All things the Cybertruck excels at or due to its paintless ultra-tough exterior is not affected by.
One thing the Cybertruck is not the best at is vehicle range, and luckily, working on farmland doesn’t require a truck to be able to drive over 300 miles in a day.
The Cybertruck’s one drawback is luckily not that important on farmland, and many of the truck’s strengths are vital for work on the farm; due to this fact, we believe the Cybertruck is the best truck for work on farmlands.
This is only one of the first instances of the Cybertruck doing real work on a farm. However, we’ll be sure to keep you posted as more people start putting Cybertrucks on the job site.
