The Tesla Cybertruck may look like it landed from another planet, but its design has another big merit besides the wow factor: it’s very aerodynamic for a pickup truck.<\/p>\n
The Cybertruck’s drag coefficient is 0.34, which is great for a truck of this size, even though the Rivian R1T trumps it with a Cd of 0.30. Still, the Cybertruck does much better in this respect than most other electric trucks\u2014the Ford F-150 Lightning, for example, has a Cd of 0.44, while the GMC Hummer EV has over 0.5!<\/p>\n
