The Cybertruck has a listed curb weight of 6,850 pounds, which means the total weight without occupants. In comparison, the base model of the Ford F-150 Lightning weighs a minimum of 6,015 pounds, while the Platinum trim weighs 6,893 pounds. 

According to Elon Musk, the Cybertruck is capable of accelerating to 60 miles per hour in 2.6 seconds, potentially making it the fastest-accelerating production pickup in the world. In contrast, the F-150 Lightning Lariat has a 0-60 time of 3.8 seconds, and the Quad-Motor Rivian R1T achieves it in 3.0 seconds flat. Musk mentioned that the Cybertruck feels different from a normal truck, being smooth and silent to drive. Additionally, it comes with adaptive air suspension, a feature that luxury cars have had for several years.

The truck is claimed to have a “true” 17-inch ground clearance and a flat bottom for maximum off-road capability. On the other hand, The GMC Hummer SUV can lift itself to 16 inches. The Cybertruck’s drag coefficient is listed as .335cd, compared to the Hyundai Ioniq 6, which has a drag coefficient of 0.21cd. Lower values are better for drag coefficients.
