There is no denying that these claims made by Musk and Lars Moravy sound outrageous. And with neither of these individuals sharing any further details about this mod package, including what it entails and an expected time of availability, these claims, at least for now, look very dubious. However, given Musk and Tesla’s history of throwing surprises at unsuspecting buyers, some Cybertruck owners might already dream of turning their expensive electric truck into a full-fledged catamaran.
With official details hard to come by, we can only speculate about the Cybertruck’s aquatic potential. Only time will tell if Tesla’s strange-looking electric truck will truly conquer the waves or remain primarily a landlocked beast. Furthermore, the impact of water exposure on the Cybertruck’s warranty is a crucial consideration for potential buyers. Would water damage caused to an “almost-floating” Cybertruck be covered under warranty?
It is also common knowledge that water and automotive batteries do not usually gel together. Would any possible damage to the expensive battery pack on the Cybertruck be covered, too? Clearly, a lot of questions need answers before we see the first of the floating Cybertrucks traversing our rivers.
