While that is impressive no matter the context, a claim made by CEO Elon Musk has led to controversy, and ultimately the conclusion that the world was misled.<\/p>\n<p><!--  [Mobile]med_rect_atf --><\/p>\n<div data-pw-mobi=\"med_rect_atf\" id=\"pwMobiMedRectAtf\"><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n  window.ramp.que.push(function () {\n      window.ramp.addTag(\"pwMobiMedRectAtf\");\n  })\n<\/script><\/p>\n<p>In his presentation, Musk said that the Cybertruck could beat a 911 in a <strong>quarter-mile drag race<\/strong> while towing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/porsche-911\/\">a 911<\/a>. However, as our own Chris Chilton noted in a previous story, the video that Tesla showed to go along with that claim didn&rsquo;t actually show a quarter-mile race.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, the race was half that long, and ended at the eighth-mile mark. My esteemed colleague chalked <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/elon-musk\/\">up Musk&rsquo;s<\/a> false claim to a simple mistake (we tend to talk about drag racing in quarters, even though eighth-miles are a popular race length), but wondered what would have happened if the race had been allowed to continue.<\/p>\n<div class='in-asd-content'>\n<h6>advertisement scroll to continue<\/h6>\n<div data-pw-desk='med_rect_atf' id='pwDeskMedRectAtf'><\/div>\n<p><script type='text\/javascript'>\n  window.ramp.que.push(function () {\n      window.ramp.addTag('pwDeskMedRectAtf');\n  })\n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p><!--  [Mobile]med_rect_btf --><\/p>\n<div data-pw-mobi=\"med_rect_btf\" id=\"pwMobiMedRectBtf1\"><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n  window.ramp.que.push(function () {\n      window.ramp.addTag(\"pwMobiMedRectBtf1\");\n  })\n<\/script><\/p>\n<p><strong>Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2023\/12\/so-if-the-cybertruck-only-beat-the-911-over-a-1-8th-mile-not-a-1-4-who-would-win-a-real-race\/\">Tesla Cybertruck Beat 911 Over 8th-Mile, Not Quarter-Mile, While Towing<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"No, Tesla Cybertruck Is *Not* Faster Than Porsche (While Towing)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen class=\"lazy\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HRYS5VWXZts?feature=oembed\" onload=\"resizeIframe(this,this.parentElement);\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>As if responding to him, Jason Fenske, host of the popular YouTube channel Engineering Explained, has attempted to find out. Using the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/video\/\">unbroken footage<\/a> of the race, as presented by Tesla, and counting the frames, he works out that with the trailer attached, the Cybertruck managed to cover the eighth-mile in 8.25 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>While that is an impressive result for the Tesla, it&rsquo;s significantly slower than the truck can go when it is unburdened by car and trailer. In independent testing, the Cybertruck was capable of completing the eighth-mile in just 6.94 seconds, or 1.31 seconds faster, without the trailer.<\/p>\n<div id=\"taboola-mid-article\"><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n  window._taboola = window._taboola || [];\n  _taboola.push({\n    mode: 'thumbnails-a-mid',\n    container: 'taboola-mid-article',\n    placement: 'Mid Article',\n    target_type: 'mix'\n  });\n<\/script><\/p>\n<div id=\"taboola-mid-article-thumbnails-organic\"><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n  window._taboola = window._taboola || [];\n  _taboola.push({\n    mode: 'thumbnails-oc-2x1',\n    container: 'taboola-mid-article-thumbnails-organic',\n    placement: 'Mid Article Thumbnails Organic',\n    target_type: 'mix'\n  });\n<\/script><\/p>\n<p>That means that, in the unlikely scenario that the gap between the burdened and unburdened truck did not grow anymore in the second eighth-mile, it would take the towing EV 1.3 seconds longer to complete the quarter-mile than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/tesla-cybertruck\/\">a Cybertruck<\/a> on its own. If you add 1.3 to the 11-second quarter-mile time that has been achieved by the truck in other tests, that amounts to 12.3 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/YT-2024-Tesla-Cybertruck-v-Porsche-911-Quarter-Mile-2.jpg\" data-type=\"inarticle-image-block\"> <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\n                <picture><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/webp\/2024\/01\/YT-2024-Tesla-Cybertruck-v-Porsche-911-Quarter-Mile-2.webp 2200w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/webp\/2024\/01\/YT-2024-Tesla-Cybertruck-v-Porsche-911-Quarter-Mile-2-400x225.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/webp\/2024\/01\/YT-2024-Tesla-Cybertruck-v-Porsche-911-Quarter-Mile-2-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/webp\/2024\/01\/YT-2024-Tesla-Cybertruck-v-Porsche-911-Quarter-Mile-2-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/webp\/2024\/01\/YT-2024-Tesla-Cybertruck-v-Porsche-911-Quarter-Mile-2-1536x864.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/webp\/2024\/01\/YT-2024-Tesla-Cybertruck-v-Porsche-911-Quarter-Mile-2-2048x1152.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, (max-width: 1535px) 100vw, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, (max-width: 768px) 1000px, (max-width: 300px) 600px, (max-width: 200px) 200px\"><\/source><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" src=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/YT-2024-Tesla-Cybertruck-v-Porsche-911-Quarter-Mile-2.jpg 2200w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/YT-2024-Tesla-Cybertruck-v-Porsche-911-Quarter-Mile-2-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/YT-2024-Tesla-Cybertruck-v-Porsche-911-Quarter-Mile-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/YT-2024-Tesla-Cybertruck-v-Porsche-911-Quarter-Mile-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/YT-2024-Tesla-Cybertruck-v-Porsche-911-Quarter-Mile-2-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/YT-2024-Tesla-Cybertruck-v-Porsche-911-Quarter-Mile-2-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, (max-width: 1535px) 100vw, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, (max-width: 768px) 1000px, (max-width: 300px) 600px, (max-width: 200px) 200px\" alt=\" Math Throws A Wrench In Elon Musk&rsquo;s Tesla Cybertruck Vs.

Not only does the car have a manual transmission, making it one of the slowest versions of the model through the quarter-mile, it is also one of the lightest examples available, making it ideal for towing.<\/p>\n<p>In both Car and Driver and Motor Trend testing, that car has been clocked completing the quarter-mile in 12.2 seconds &mdash; faster than the towing Cybertruck, based on its eighth-mile performance.<\/p>\n<p>Using some even more complicated (but still generous) math, Fenske reaches the conclusion that the Cybertruck could realistically complete the quarter-mile time of 12.8 seconds while towing a 911. Although that is a very impressive feat, it suggests that Musk was incorrect in his assertion.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"WATCH: Tesla Cybertruck Beats A Porsche 911 While Towing A 911\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen class=\"lazy\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/k-8HRFetY_Q?feature=oembed\" onload=\"resizeIframe(this,this.parentElement);\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/body><\/html><\/p>\n\n<h2><b>Commercials Cooperation Advertisements:<\/b><\/h2>\r\n<p><br>(1) IT Teacher IT Freelance<br> <\/p>\r\n<a href=https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress><img src=http:\/\/gamefootballmobileanimeiphone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/ITTeacherITFreelance-Website.png alt=IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 java\u88dc\u7fd2 \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2,IT freelance, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b, PHP\u88dc\u7fd2,CSS\u88dc\u7fd2,XML,Java\u88dc\u7fd2,MySQL\u88dc\u7fd2,graphic design\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e2d\u5c0f\u5b78ICT\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e00\u5c0d\u4e00\u79c1\u4eba\u88dc\u7fd2\u548cFreelance\u81ea\u7531\u5de5\u4f5c\u914d\u5c0d\u3002\/><\/a><p><a href=https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/findteacher>\u7acb\u523b\u8a3b\u518a\u53ca\u5831\u540d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2\u8ab2\u7a0b\u5427! <\/a><br>\r\n\r\n\u7535\u5b50\u8ba1\u7b97\u673a -\u6559\u80b2 -IT \u96fb\u8166\u73ed\u201d ( IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 ) \u63d0\u4f9b\u4e00\u500b\u65b9\u4fbf\u7684\u7535\u5b50\u8ba1\u7b97\u673a \u6559\u80b2\u5e73\u53f0, \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u4fe1\u606f\u6280\u672f, \u96fb\u8166 \u8001\u5e2b, IT freelance \u548c programming expert. \u8b93\u5927\u5bb6\u65b9\u4fbf\u5730\u5c31\u80fd\u627e\u5230\u5408\u9069\u7684\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2, \u96fb\u8166\u73ed, \u5bb6\u6559, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b.  <br>\r\n\r\nWe are a education and information platform which you can find a IT private tutorial teacher or freelance. <br>\r\n\r\nAlso we provide different information about information technology, Computer, programming, mobile, Android, apple, game, movie, anime, animation\u2026 \r\n<\/p>\n<p><br>(2) ITSec<br> <\/p><a href=https:\/\/itsec.vip><img src=http:\/\/gamefootballmobileanimeiphone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/ITSec-Main-Promotion-Image.png alt= https:\/\/itsec.vip\/\r\nSecure Your Computers from Cyber Threats and mitigate risks with professional services to defend Hackers.  \r\nITSec provide IT Security and Compliance Services, including IT Compliance Services, Risk Assessment, IT Audit, Security Assessment and Audit, ISO 27001 Consulting and Certification, GDPR Compliance Services, Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA), Penetration test, Ethical Hacking, Vulnerabilities scan, IT Consulting, Data Privacy Consulting, Data Protection Services, Information Security Consulting, Cyber Security Consulting, Network Security Audit, Security Awareness Training.\/><\/a> \r\n<br><br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/itsec.vip>www.ITSec.vip<\/a> <br> <br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/sraa.com.hk>www.Sraa.com.hk<\/a> <br> <br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/itsec.hk>www.ITSec.hk<\/a> <br> <br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/penetrationtest.hk>www.Penetrationtest.hk<\/a> <br> <br> \r\n<p><a href=https:\/\/itseceu.uk>www.ITSeceu.uk<\/a> <br> <br> \r\nSecure Your Computers from Cyber Threats and mitigate risks with professional services to defend Hackers. <br><br>\r\nITSec provide IT Security and Compliance Services, including IT Compliance Services, Risk Assessment, IT Audit, Security Assessment and Audit, ISO 27001 Consulting and Certification, GDPR Compliance Services, Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA), Penetration test, Ethical Hacking, Vulnerabilities scan, IT Consulting, Data Privacy Consulting, Data Protection Services, Information Security Consulting, Cyber Security Consulting, Network Security Audit, Security Awareness Training. \r\n<br><br>Contact us right away. <br><br>Email (Prefer using email to contact us): <br>SalesExecutive@ITSec.vip<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"653\" height=\"367\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/3243443342432342432342324324342342.gif\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/div>\n<p>Elon Musk made a big claim about the Cybertruck that turns out to have been overblown.
