Chechen dictator Ramzan Kadyrov has posted a video on social media showing off his new cybertruck. He claims that it was a gift directly from Elon Musk and vows to send the "cyberbeast" into battle against Ukraine. https://t.me/RKadyrov_95/4999
There’s also this Ukrainian report on the matter but it’s in Ukrainian, so I’m sharing the Mastodon post in English.
Also, once you’re close to the front line, where are you going to charge this thing? There’s definitely no fast chargers, and if you do find a house with a working 220v outlet you’re a sitting duck for the next 8 hours or so.
Ukrainians have been using electric bikes and scooters successfully, but a whole EV is another kettle of fish.
Conceivably they could macgyver together a diesel generator/transformer combo unit into an electrical cable that can charge a tesla?
Maybe?
I used to have a survival/backup battery/transformer combo that could be charged from portable solar panels or a wall outlet, and while I have no idea of their availability or price in Russia and Ukraine, I know there diesel generator/transformer/battery combo units or sets.
Recharging a Tesla off of solar would require basically a football field sized solar panel array though rofl, a very static and fragile target
Yeah, then you need to transport a generator and fuel to wherever you’re charging it, so you’re not getting away from the same logistics issues you’d have with a Toyota Hilux.
I can only see this as a ploy to get the all time high post on r/shittytechnicals, if that still exists.

I mean, if you could get a slave cable adapter you could probably charge it off of any nearby military vehicle…
But then you’re still running another vehicle, idle, to charge it.

More like 3 days. A Tesla 3 standard range takes 10 hours on 240V @15A
Cybertrucks have big batteries
