I believe the prototype out accelerated a Porsche 911. Your diesel must be pretty good to match that but with all that torque you stated the diesel would way out pull the Cybertruck. I think you are wrong. Shall check back in three years.
Aaaaaa Time, I never said my diesel. I said my hot rod street rod. If you think you have a tesla that will beat it, bring it. I'm game!
Every body laughing at the cyber junk. Even Denny's. LOL This is golden! :B

It was only about 10 days ago that Elon Musk revealed Tesla's new Cybertruck to legions of adoring sycophants and - well, the rest of the world who laughed at him and ridiculed the truck's design. Even Denny's took shots at Musk.
And why wouldn't they? The unveiling of the truck was a full scale disaster, complete with two broken windows and a passenger side back wheel that looked like it was about to fall off from underneath the truck. So, naturally, Musk claims that the cult of Tesla has already pre-ordered 250,000 of them. We documented the full unveiling circus in a writeup here.
Now, we're starting to get a glance into why the truck and its unveiling looked like such a poorly planned concept: because they were.
Musk said in early November, just several weeks before the unveiling, that the company does "zero market research whatsoever" when designing a new product, according to a new article from the Wall Street Journal.

In other words, Musk wants to enter the best segment of the auto industry: the highly profitable, billion dollar pickup truck segment, and he has done no research as to how best to meet the needs of potential customers.
Is it any wonder the company is losing close to $1 billion per year?
And how does Musk defend the strategy of doing no research? The idea seems "seems especially reckless in the age of Big Data," the WSJ says. Especially while companies like Google, Apple and Facebook have based their success by doing nothing but harvesting and analyzing data. In other words, they don't make blind bets, like Musk is doing.
