The Cybertruck stood strong during a late night break-in attempt.

The Tesla vehicle owner Arash Malek posted the aftermath of the break-in attempt on X, captioning: 'Cybertruck is California-proof. Armored glass beats criminals trying their best to break in – even when jumping on the roof.'

Malek's Cybertruck was parked on the street over the weekend when a car pulled up beside it. A person wearing a hoodie came out carrying a small tool that was later revealed to be a glass window smasher.

The video also shows the perpetrator shining a torch light probably to check for valuables inside the Cybertruck.

Then, the vandal attempted to smash the Cybertruck's window multiple times.

When he realised his attempts weren't working, he climbed on top of the electric vehicle, jumping on the glass roof which also didn't break.

Luckily, all the action was caught on camera as Malek kept Sentry Mode turned on in his Cybertruck.

Sentry Mode is a feature that allows Tesla owners to remotely view the area surrounding their vehicle as seen through the exterior cameras on their mobile app.

Both the armoured window and roof glass suffered visible cracks and definitely need replacement but, for the most part, the vehicle remained intact.

'Don’t mess with Cybertruck,' the Californian man added.

The Tesla tank-like vehicles are equipped with Armor Glass windows. They're designed to be shatter-resistant and durable enough to survive Class 4 hail, which is considered the best protection against hail damage.

The criminal's face can be easily spotted on the video, one person has said: 'Dude doesn't really understand how to wear a mask does he? Then again he was dumb enough to try to break into a Cybertruck.'

Tesla CEO Elon Musk reposted the post and added this response: 'Tesla Cybertruck, the finest in apocalypse defense technology!'

The SpaceX founder has previously mentioned his ambitions for Telsa to be 'the leader in apocalypse technology.'

'When the apocalypse comes, you'll be glad it's bulletproof,' Musk confidently shared.

Other viewers are wondering what the cost of is repairs are going to be, one wrote: 'I wonder how long it takes to get that fixed.'

Another praised the vehicle's design, playfully replying: 'People are the worst. So glad to see the Cybertruck fight back against these cowards.'
