- Can it jump? Rock crawl? Survive the whoops? Conquer the sand dunes? In short, can the Tesla Cybertruck REALLY off-road?
Viral videos of it struggling on mild inclines tell us ‘no’.
But armed with a Cybertruck featuring Tesla’s latest off-road software update that finally allows you to lock the diffs, we took it - together with a Rivian R1T as a benchmark - to the middle of the Californian desert to find out.
Over to Top Gear Magazine’s Editor-in-Chief, Jack Rix, and Head of Car Testing, Ollie Marriage, to give us all an answer…

Stay tuned for Tesla Cybertruck vs Rivian R1T off-road drag race + Tesla vs Rivian camping setup videos later this week!
Can’t wait!
What happened with the tent on the Rivian?? Somehow it started the jump with the tent and landed without one :D
This has to be the least scientific test I've ever seen in my life that wasn't done by 5 year olds. They should have switched the car and the driver and done several rounds of testing. You can't have a timid driver or drive a car and then say the car slow cuz they keep losing
Tesla is literally the best car company ever. This car has and will inspire millions
Cybertruck is my favorite vehicle😃
When neighbors borrow your truck.

I had more of a problem with a posh old English chap using the word 'gnarly'.
Finally someone addresses tire pressure. All those videos criticizing the off-road capabilities of any EV truck need to acknowledge the tires have higher psi ratings for efficiency on the road. Off-road generally goes better if you release pressure from the tires so they are able to compliantly spread load over irregular terrain.
And that's why many of us think it's not a truck but just a road queen.
@Some0ne001 every off-road vehicle has to deflat tire pressure this isn't an ev thing
Anyone know if the tires deflate on the Cybertruck with a touch of a button?
But they fail at actually addressing pressures. They are still running at 37+ psi, which is more than most ICE vehicles. For true offroading, or even driving on the beach/sand, you are going to want to be around 20 psi or less. With my jeep with traditional wheels (non beedlocks) I would air down to 16 or so for most offroading. 37 psi is still street pressures.

They will both be fine. I own a Rivian and it's built like a tank. The CT has a stiffer structure than almost all vehicles on the market - matching that of cars like the 911.
This is Top Gear. Not a real car review.
@@sports2hedz542 It still would have been a good idea. And it it not enough today to convince me, and for what I know they could have totaled three Cybertrucks or Rivians while filming this.

That yakima rack shows the difference between static and dynamic load ratings and why you need a proper roof rack instead of load bars when mounting a rooftop tent. Cant just slap a rooftop tent on something and call it overland ready.
Cybertruck has PROPER roof rack from Unplugged Performance.
@@markplott4820 crap
In fairness you'd *never* drive anything like this if it were your own truck that you'd paid actual money for.
....both these trucks now likely have major damage to wishbones, A-arms, etc. The roof bars getting bent is probably the least of the problems caused.
@@DEADB33F True and this is the case for me personally. I have a 4th gen 4Runner and a 5th Gen TRD Pro I have yet to build out like my 4th gen because driving a $60K+ vehicle offroad like this will give the average person more anxiety than fun. My 4th gen is worth literally nothing at this point and makes it incredibly fun to drive offroad.
@@DEADB33F - Cybertruck is built REAL TOUGH, not fake tough like Rivian & LEGACY trucks.
Tesla has CAST arms and a Stamped upper control arm , UNLIKELY needs any replacement.
This is the kind of Top Gear content I was expecting!
@09:23 "this one feels springier and bouncier than the Cybertruck" yeah, because you were going way faster and finished 20s quicker.
TBF, they should have both done a stint in each and taken an average. Two very cool trucks though!!
And had a heavy tent mounted over and behind the rear axle…
Agreed. I'm no off-road expert, but I knew that.
Yeah the guy with the beard seems to floor it when doing the rock crawl in the Rivian and also told the guy in the rivian to floor it from the start on the timed race. Seems rivian biased to me.
@@georgevigil7001 I'm not so sure. But the main take away I had was that these tests weren't relevant.
It's like when a super car is taken out on track by someone who never exceeds the speed limit.
It might be a very capable car, but that driver doesn't have the skills to find out.
"My camry could do all this" - someone on reddit, probably.
It could. The parts replacement parts will be pennies to the dollar.
Ahhh reddit, the home of communist keyboard warriors
Yes in fact it can.
And so can the basically stock WRX
I mean, I accidentally did something like this with a 2003 honda accord.
Google didn't understand what an atv trail is
lol, I have a Camry and I was literally just thinking that my car could probably do all this.
I see the off-roading doesn't include any creeks or streams.
We wouldn't want the dash electronics to stop working in the middle of the video 😂
Not a lot of water in the desert.

@HyproTube is it painful being that stupid/immature?
fun to watch but living pretty close to that off road area i can tell you you'll see everything from a Rivian to a 20 year old Subaru capable of those challenges
True there are muchhhh cheaper cars that can do this too
Light off roading at best…
99% of those two trucks will only see school and grocery store parking lots.
"Proper off roading!"
(gets passed by a stock RAV4)
A Subaru can't climb the rocks of the first test . Also not sure the jump would end that well, you might lose a bumper.
I'm mostly impressed by the fact that those roof top tent bolts and brackets withstood that
Should have brought a standard ICE 4x4 truck to show how it does in comparison..
they have done a many trucks on the same route.. look it up
It also doesn't really matter, if the diffs lock, and the truck doest bottom out, it's almost COMPLETELY dependant on what tires a vehicle has on.
Any stock 4x4 could do this
Any stock 4x4 truck/suv could easily do this

There's plenty better from smaller UA-camrs.
well, no body got the offroad mode enabled yet expect this video
@@georgevigil7001 seems like they should have a "control" truck. It would be fun to see a gas truck in comparison. I'm pretty sure the rivian and the cybertruck would smoke it. (Maybe not range, but certainly everything else for sure)
@@B0tch0A Raptor would have smoked both on the whoops and jumping. Those are what its suspension is specifically tuned for.

@@444thunderstr0ke nah, Tesla model x looks like a used bar of soap.
@@jacobscheer2730 What do u expect? Its just a sharp point up there 😂 can't do much else
I don't know about standard tires. From what I heard the tires on the Cybertruck are produced specifically for the Cybertruck, so they are probably expensive as hell.
The Rivian does impressive rooster tails!
Watching that fridge struggle up that 'hill' and listening to you guys fawn over it- hilarious
I swear I was witnessing the entire body of that truck flexing.. that's scary
How is this a "fair" comparison, with one of the drivers being way more brave on the bumpy thing?
The Cybertruck driver tried to go faster on the whoops, but the truck wasn't handling it.
@@TroySavary The driver wasn't handling it. You could see that he had a relatively smooth drive compared to the other vehicle/driver combination where the tail of the vehicle was all over the place, but the driver handled it and kept his foot planted. Even at the end of the runs, the first guy "this wasn't that bad", the second guy "I'm glad that's over".
I’m no expert but looks like you voided the warranty 😂
TL;DW: “I’m blown away by what this is capable of”, “Really impressed”, “I want one”.
But the Rivian, an older design did everything the Cybertruck did...
@@Karnakthemagnificent older design? its a unibody electric vehicle, its the SAME design. only difference is rivian has a motor at each corner, while tesla has a motor at each axle. theoretically rivian has better traction due to being able to individually drive each wheel, but off roading isnt that black and white so who knows. either way, they are very capable, and more capable than a comparable gas truck. a ford/chevy/ram 1500 has no chance against one of these.
@@Karnakthemagnificentand so does a 50 year old Land Rover - what’s your point?
@amruze it was not that one was obviously better than the other in this is case. What did you glean from this?
@fxzn has Rivian iterated on the R1T since it first hit the market years ago? To me it is impressive how well it performs against a new very capable EV and that speaks well of Rivian's designers.
That looked epic fun...!
MOAB is calling you!!!
Why do people capitalize Moab? It's a proper noun, not an acronym or an initialism.
4:09 rock crawling with 38 psi in tires 🤔
2:52 “I’m gonna be your spotter. A bit more left hand”. Spotter’s or driver’s left? 😂
I believe he says "left hand down" which is always referring to the drivers hands on the steering wheel i.e. the driver should pull his left hand down which will make the car go left. Expression is to avoid exactly this sort of confusion.
The Rivian R1T is a solid off-road truck! Great to see!
It has good grip levels but the non existent rebound control and bottom out resistance in the rear is the worst I’ve ever seen.
It is a girl's truck.
You are going to cook those diffs. No need to lock the diffs unless your crawling or in really deep stuff. Maybe Tesla does some trickery to make it safer on the drivetrain.
it probably uses the brakes to keep the wheels without traction from spinning. the rivian cuts power to the motor on the spinning wheel. i dont know if either have actual lockers
@@eloc580the cybertruck has front and rear locking diff. A locking diff is a locking diff, whether it's on an electric or ICE vehicle. The rivian doesn't need locking diff because it has 1 motor per wheel, so to simulate a locked diff it just has to spin both motors at the same speed (in fact it has no diff at all)
@@eloc580The Tesla has a physical locking differentials. It was just enabled in the Spring update.
lol @ the intro. The "Way.. too... FAST!" clip just prefaces the video like dude didn't know what he was doing. It comical and hilarious to me. Thanks for the laugh.
turns out the CB is far more capable than what instagram reels would make you believe
If you used Baja mode with the CT what mode did you use for the Rivian? 9:49
Likely Off-road Rally.
At 4:08, why would you not take the psi down to the recommended 31 psi?
I noticed the screen shows 3:12 but the tire updated at 12:47. Seems the Rivian is having an update issue with the TPMS sensors
@@ruhdisthefirst8279 I don't see the Rivian psi referenced anywhere after 4:08. Maybe they use a British system, like the left wheel means the right wheel.
They are still running at 37+ psi, which is more than most ICE vehicles. For true offroading, or even driving on the beach/sand, you are going to want to be around 20 psi or less. With my jeep with traditional wheels (non beedlocks) I would air down to 16 or so for most offroading. 37 psi is still street pressures.
@@ruhdisthefirst8279 Why would TPMS even need an "Update" timestamp? On 99% of vehicles, it updates within the past 30 seconds or so, if not almost immediately.
CT off-road!!!
Thank you so much , that's what I kept waiting for...
That was Rock Crawling? 😂
"Butt-puckering" 😱🤠
Awesome job
It can definitely perform but I think the question has always been more about both of these trucks’ ability to perform a full weekend trip. Battery life was not mentioned once.
Reviewers don’t talk about range as much anymore because it’s a non-issue for the most part. Ranges are long, chargers are plentiful and fast.
@@lemongavineyou've never been to the Utah Desert haven't you?
@@lemongavine you should watch donut media trying to do a 100mile off road trip with the cybertruck. range was definitely an issue lmao
well, you can concievably bring with you 1-2kW light PVs producing up to 10kWh/day. And stay out there for months/years.
Anyway, there is a YT channel where a guy juices up an R1T before entering parks, and spending the weekend off roading with no apparent troubles
@@lemongavine Found the EV sales rep
10:33 impressive how stably the suspension deals with that
How much battery do you have left after all this sporting around and where out there do you find power if the trucks are almost discharged .
Just like any ICE truck. Do you watch others and feel the need to say "Yeah but what are you going to do when you run out of gas"
Doing off-road with the stock tires doesn't make sense even for a 4Runner
It makes sense if you don't want any traction haha.
They test production vehicles like any other automotive journalist. Certain manufacturers have provided pretty hardcore off-road tires from the factory.
@@otm646 Automotive journalists usually test street cars on the street. When they go to a track they change for track tires.
Fun to see this thing pushed. Looking forward to the OTA update
"Superior turning circle"? Dude, the Rivian has tank turn mode. Nothing can beat that.
9:41 bro discovered his german genes for a sec😅
Great content guys, cant wait for the camping video.
Great video guys, finally some off road tests for Cybertruck, but my choice is Rivian R1T just love the looks and engineering behind it 😊❤❤
It is a girl truck. Charging is not efficient, truck bed is 1/2 size of Cybertruck.
What happened to the light bar? I see it on some shots but not others
Probably shot using two different trucks because battery life
Looked like a blast all around! Still, now go wash the CT and see what happens…
I’ll take a Rivan any day over a CT:)
Tell us about how long the battery lasted and how you charged it in the middle of the desert? Gas powered generator?
EV and a gas generator are actually a good combo for these kinds of adventures
They showed where they went. No need to charge. This was maybe 50 mile but probably less off road.
a gas generator being used to charge an EV is actually more efficient than using that same gasoline to run a car directly
@@redbean9410 No it's not. You didn't even claim what the efficiency of the generator. A small generator wouldn't have near the conversion rate to be better that driving a gas engine.
@@sparksmcgee6641 a generator can be run at its optimal RPM to produce electricity, whereas if you put that same diesel generator in a car, its RPM fluctuates, leading to less efficiency. A lot of electricity today is made using fossil fuels you know that right? You get more usable energy from that same gallon of gasoline by making electricity out of it than burning it directly. Electric motors have an efficiency of about 70-80%, whereas ICE engines are around 20%. i recommend you look into this on google or smth
I wish they'd talk about the battery level after every test
The rock crawling part would be using almost nothing at least, on a diesel you're using 95%+ just idling while the electric motors will only be using exactly what's required to take you up the hill, so if you're rock crawling with your buddies I wouldn't be surprised if the range on this is way longer than on a diesel.
Why?
This needs to be higher up. The donut video is a great example
@@HatSandwiches

So much hate for the Cyber Truck, it's nice to see a video of it performing really really well ;-)
“Feet off everything…”

The Rivian R3x is the one I'm waiting for!
When tech guys make a truck, prepare for promised features to come later down a roadmap, just like a video game.
Damn
thumbnail goin hard
Those jumps were mild IMO; However, rock crawling and sand drifts were fun!
LOL some comments seems to forget this is not a scientific experiment, IMHO to know what truck is faster in THAT off-road segment both drivers would need to do several runs on each vehicle, 5 for example and discard the two slowest and do an average on the remaining 3, that could be a good enough test to reach some conclusion.

Not bad,
Why does it look like the Tesla has no suspension travel? It just bounes around everywhere.
Correction: after watching "The Whoops" both of them just bounce all over the place.🤭
BEAMNG MAP NOTICED 🔥🔥🔥🔥
It takes a certain kind of bad faith to watch this entire video and still say it can't do offroad.
That being said, scroll through the comments.
Didn't do much testing on ramp travel index, cross axle articulation/diff locks and sustained performance/overheat protection.
What they did test showed that it had a strong frame and good suspension at least for short distances. Not that it's ready to replace Wrangler Rubicon or LC79.
@@hi9580This car will do much better than diesels when it comes to overheating, issue is diesels rely on air getting to the radiator, as the engines still produce quite a bit of heat while you're standing still, and so when going uphill or struggling through terrain you get little air to the radiator and it can struggle.
Electric motors in comparison only use exactly the energy required to move you, meaning at low speeds and while rock crawling they're incredibly efficient while a diesel might use 95%+ of the energy just idling its engine.
The cooling system of these is mostly internal and isn't dependent on air flowing from outside to a radiator, this means it cools almost just as well at low speeds as it does while going 100 mph, and is why track driving where you're using 600 or 900 horsepower for extended periods of time is so demanding on these.
In comparison going rock crawling where you might only be using 20 horsepower (but loads of torque) to push it at 4 mph up a hill is going to have it almost completely unaffected, and with incredibly long ranges.
I'd expect the part with them drifting around the sand dunes to be the most taxing in terms of overheating, as there they're actually putting large amounts of energy into the drivetrain.
For that part they seemed to think it was the most fun with a 80% power split to the rear though. That'd mean an effective max power split of of 75 horsepower front and 300 horsepower rear instead of 300 front and 300 rear, and as they'd be using the front motor much less the max power demanded from the drivetrain would only be 375 horsepower at most, which it should be able to handle well.
Also want to add that I'm not in any way a Tesla fanboy, don't like Musk, own a non-Tesla electric car and not planning on buying a Tesla, nor do I own Tesla stock, as it seems anyone who's even slightly positive of their cars always seem to be called a fanboy.
Anyone notice how the wheels have the umbrella corporation emblem?.. it would be fun to run down zombies in..and nothing else.
Who gave you these vehicles to abuse like that? I didn’t see factory plates, which are the only folks who would make sense. I did take my Rivian R1S through Broken Arrow train in Sedona AZ and did some gnarly trails in Nevada, but I did them slow. The Rivian R1S is more off-road capable than the R1T, but it was fun to see you take the truck through its paces. My condolences to the owners.

@JohnSmith-pn2vl do you have any facts to back up your statement other than your unshakeable "confidence"?
"Have a go about it" makes me laugh every time
not just road, but off the market also
The fact that it CAN do this stuff isnt anything worth writing home about. A $2500 blazer can do that. Its what about if the batteries run flat out there? We always 4×4 with gas cans and stay out for a couple days. Can these do that? Could you charge it, drive it all the way out there, flog it all day, and still make it back to a chatging station?
Seen a tic Tok where a guy had a generator in his Tesla with one gallon of gas and went 100 miles.
EV trucks can charge each other, but yes if they are both low on charge you're screwed, portable solar panels take too long
Big diesel generator = hybrid
You're going relatively slow, your real world range off-road is substantially higher than that of being on the highway. I've done a lot of off-roading out west, I've never put in more than 150 miles a day in the dirt.
you're not very bright, you bring a 5 gallon gas can for the 1400w generator and stay the week end. if you can afford these rare earth minerals of removed mountains chances are you can afford the 40' fold out solar panels so you can charge it all week end just to leave.
