Estimated Tesla Cybertruck Battery Capacity: 120 kWh In Base Version via InsideEVs
's calculations attached below, the Tesla Cybertruck's energy consumption is estimated at 571 watt-hours per mile or 355 Wh/km, at a constant speed of 65.5 mph .comparable to the Ford F-150 Lightning's EPA Highway energy consumption rating When assuming that part of the energy will be reused , one can calculate the driving range and battery pack size.
With a usable 120-kWh battery capacity, the range would exceed 250 miles, which is probably the minimum range level accepted by Tesla for an electric vehicle. A larger, 160-kWh battery pack would result in almost 350 miles of driving range:Usable battery capacity: 160 kWh - range of 345 miles In other words, if 300-350 miles or so is the target, then the battery pack will have to be roughly two times bigger than in the case of the Tesla Model Y Long Range .
Time will tell how close to the truth these calculations are, but at least we have a reference point. A separate thing worth noting is that the weight of the Tesla Cybertruck is expected to be high at around 7,011 pounds .
