The Tesla Cybertruck violently collided with another car and received practically no damage

The Tesla Cybertruck violently collided with another car and received practically no damage

The Tesla Cybertruck has proven once again that although it is not completely indestructible and may not be able to withstand the end of the world – as Elon Musk has confirmed – it is a very strong car that has the ability to remain standing after being involved in an accident. Serious accident.

The accident occurred at the intersection of S Himes Avenue in Tampa, Florida, where the Cybertruck received a side impact from a Nissan Sentra and demonstrated the resistance of Tesla's future design against serious traffic accidents.

The Cybertruck barely felt the hit

Eyewitnesses indicated that the accident occurred when one of the vehicles ignored the red light, which led to a Nissan Sentra colliding with the side of a Cyber ​​Truck. The impact was so significant that both vehicles had to be towed from the scene, but the damage report was completely different.

The Nissan has been a complete wreck

The front end of the Nissan Sentra was completely destroyed, becoming an unrecognizable pile of metal with the remains of the bumper and hood scattered on the asphalt. Unfortunately, this sedan will never be driven again.

In contrast, the Tesla Cybertruck only sustained minor damage to the front and rear fenders on the passenger side, with deformations of the stainless steel in the doors and loss of air in the tires on that side. Therefore, everything seems to indicate that the car is still in repairable condition, and it will likely return to the streets soon.

He comes out safe

The Tesla truck already has several accidents behind it

This is not the first incident involving the Cybertruck. The accident that occurred in Tampa joins two other accidents that occurred recently. The first incident occurred in late December, when a Toyota Corolla collided with a Cybertruck, causing only minor damage to the truck.

The second accident occurred last month when a Cybertruck collided with the sign of the Beverly Hills Hotel in Los Angeles, due to the driver's error when he confused the brake pedal with the accelerator pedal.
