After 4 years of long waiting, it was at the end of 2023, when Tesla began to make the first official deliveries of its Cybertruck, the first electric pick-up created by Elon Musk’s company, which has generated a lot of conversation due to its extremely disruptive design, as well as its advanced technology.
According to Elon Musk himself, Tesla’s Cybetruck is the most powerful vehicle on the face of the Earth, since he claims that it is “completely indestructible,” which makes it very safe to drive.
But recently, a video also went viral showing that the Cybertruck is not within the reach of thieves, since everything seems to indicate that it is a “100% anti-theft” truck.
This was demonstrated in a video shared on social networks by Arash Malek, a content creator who published a video on X (formerly Twitter) of an attempted theft of one of his friends’ Cybertruck.
According to Malek, the incident took place recently when a pair of strangers approached his acquaintance’s Cybertruck, which was parked on the street. Apparently, the assailants tried to open the doors of the truck, but were unable to do so due to the car’s advanced security system.
In fact, the video was recorded by Sentry Mode, the security system integrated into the truck; Through the side camera of the car, a man is seen trying to force the door of the vehicle, without any success.
