Mind-blowing footage shows how fast Tesla Cybertruck can reach insane top speed in drag race

The truck was tested on a drag strip

The Cybertruck might be famous for its rugged design and steel exterior, but it earned some credit for its track speed too.

Known for dominating tug-of-war showdowns against heavyweights like turbocharged Dodge Rams and even military Humvees, the Cybertruck has proven itself a force to be reckoned with.

Now, the Cybertruck is proving it’s not just about power, it’s packing speed too.

Thanks to the YouTube team DragTimes, we're able to witness the truck hit an impressive top speed on the drag strip.

The specific model is the 600HP dual-motor foundation edition, which was brand-new - minus a few trips around the block in transportation. Despite its boxy and heavy-duty appearance, the Cybertruck left the mark without a ‘rollout’ and hit 60 mph in just four seconds.

But it doesn't stop there.

DragTimes put the vehicle through a performance test and recorded just how quickly it could reach its top speed of 114mph.

The vehicle soon sped off into the distance, hitting its top speed and simultaneously crossing the quarter-mile time.

It took just 12:42 to reach the finish line and maxed out its speed less than a second later. The drag strip test video has already racked up nearly 130,000 views on YouTube, with viewers blown away by its performance.

"It gets up to top speed impressively quickly," one user commented.

"I love how it goes so fas [sic]," added another.

Some fans are eager to see the DragTimes team try it out with a Tesla Cyberbeast.

"Somebody give this man a Cyberbeast please," someone else remarked. But if you thought the Cybertruck was fast, the Cyberbeast takes it to another level. With a tri-motor system, the vehicle pumps out an incredible 845 horsepower, delivering 50% more acceleration g-force than the standard Cybertruck.

And, according to DuPont Registry, the Cyberbeast rockets from 0 to 60 mph in a blistering 2.6 seconds.

The range is where the Cybertruck lacks, however.

What's interesting about the Cybertruck however is its lack of range.

In another video by DragRaces, the Tesla Cybertruck went head-to-head with some high-performance competition in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico, during the 'Fast or Nothing' half-mile race.

The lineup included two bright-yellow Lamborghinis - the Aventador S and the Revuelto - as well as Tesla’s Model X Plaid.

Whilst the Tesla Cybertruck stormed into an early lead as the Lamborghini Aventador struggled to shift smoothly into second gear, its lead in the race was short-lived.

The Cyberbeast plateaued at 130 mph, allowing the Lamborghini to speed past and take the win.
