New videos of Tesla Cybertruck off-roading appear to show it struggling to climb up a steep dirt hill::One video showed a 1946 Jeep CJ-2A successfully navigating the same hill that the Cybertruck struggled to summit.

It comes down to having tires sized to carry the weight. A heavy vehicle would need tires the size of those Russian off-road vehicles to match the light Jeep. Also why light offroad vehicles like a Polaris side-by-side are so popular now with people that drive trails. And why you would never want to take those lifted full-sized trucks off road even though they are popular on the highway.
