New videos of Tesla Cybertruck off-roading appear to show it struggling to climb up a steep dirt hill::One video showed a 1946 Jeep CJ-2A successfully navigating the same hill that the Cybertruck struggled to summit.

Crap article that doesn’t even have the video in question. Here it is. The Cybertruck sure does look unimpressive in the video. It’s making weird rattling sounds too. This thing looks like a shit box.

The noises are someone in the background, not coming from the truck

I think you’re right; seems like it’s coming from the guy putting his car on a trailer. Cybertruck still looks like it’s not cut out for off roading though

Feels like very few trucks and "offroad-ready" vehicles nowadays are actually cut out for real offroading

They should 100% be able to handle that offroading...my Elantra would be able to get up that hill better then that deformed junk pile
