The Tesla Cybertruck and the Ford F-150's gas-powered release were recently put to the test against each other, and this centered on a towing competition where both pulled each other's rear end to see who is the boss. The video posted via Instagram showed how Tesla dominated the competition with its power and capabilities, pulling the V-6-powered car while it tries to break free as it also accelerates.

Tesla Cybertruck vs. Ford F-150: EV Dominates the Towing Competition

An Instagram Reel is now making headlines from Driven Social, as it posted a video of a Tesla Cybertruck dominating a towing competition it had with a Ford F-150, with the EV showing who is the more powerful one. The video shows how the Cybertruck effortlessly pulled the F-150 despite the pickup trying its best to also pull away in its end, showing how its tires slip and be taken to the opposite side.

This video only shows how much EVs are superior compared to ICE cars now in terms of built, capabilities, and power, as most companies have designed their electric cars to bring the best tech there is.

Still, despite this video, Tesla is not yet releasing the anticipated Cybertruck to the public-with preorders already available on the company's website for its future release.

How Did the Tesla Cybertruck Win, did it have an Unfair Advantage?

The Tesla Cybertruck is best known to have an all-wheel drivetrain which has all wheels of the vehicle having distributed power, with as much as 3,500-pound payload capacity for the stock setup.

Users in the comments have argued that the F-150 is using a 4x2 configuration, meaning it is a 2-wheel drive car, and this alone is a big handicap for the car. Moreover, the F-150 ICE cars are less heavier compared to the Tesla Cybertruck.

Tesla and Electric Vehicle's Domination Today

If you browse the car market today, some releases are outstanding and filled with the latest technology or features, and most of them are electric vehicles or hybrids. This is because the transition to clean energy cars is the present trend and what the world's leaders are rooting for, to significantly lessen the emissions in the Earth.

One might say that EVs are getting significant attention compared to a regular car, as electric ones also receive tax incentives from the US government.

Tesla Cybertruck is one of the most anticipated electric pickup trucks in the market, but the company's other releases are also a good start if you are in search of a sedan or SUV for your drive, in clean energy. Ford also has an electric pickup, but this was not matched against the unreleased Tesla EV in the video above.

One of the key features of EVs is that it features an all-wheel drive with a powerful drivetrain that brings in massive torque power and a heavier build because of its battery mounted in the under chassis, on the car's floor. This was the reason why Tesla had an "unfair advantage," but the video depicts that the EV is the more superior than the F-150.
