The Tesla Cybertruck is estimated to get about 2.4 miles per kWh, or 415 watts per mile. In comparison, a Tesla Model 3 gets about 3.4 miles per kWh, or 290 watts per mile.

That’s an estimate.

Even so, that’s better than the F150 Lightning (1.9 mi/kWh) and the Rivian R1T (1.81 mi/kWh)

So we're saying it does get good fuel economy?

For an electric truck, (that’s not in public hands for testing, so we’re guessing) yes, it’s like 25% more efficient than the competitors.

Yes it's not bad... the Rivian gets about 2.1 miles/kwhr

Although you could definitely design a smaller, more efficient EV truck.

Hey, like this one!

That's what my Chevy bolt gets on the highway in winter.
