A Tesla Cybertruck driver was killed in what appears to be the first reported fatal crash involving the electric pickup truck, which has yet to undergo third-party crash testing.

    I don’t know about Cybertruck but other Teslas rank high up in the safest cars ever tested. Would be surprising if this wouldn’t apply to cybertruck too though who knows.

    Edit: also, 15 to 20k units sold and this is the first fatal crash involving one

      I’ve heard that, but now I kinda think they probably just made those up.

        Well, the euro NCAP tests give them some of the highest scores as well, so I do trust that (not including cybertruck).
