Electric wheelchair builder and YouTube phone durability tester JerryRigEverything tests several calibers against the Tesla's outer skin. See which ones get through.
The video starts off with repeated testing of 9mm rounds, which the truck's panels shrug off pretty handily. They leave severe dents, but nothing gets through. From there, testing escalates to .22-, .17-, .223- and finally .50-caliber rifle rounds. We won't tell you where the limit is because that would spoil the video, but it should come as no surprise that the .50-caliber round manages to punch through both sides of the door and do a number on the interior trim.
As noted both by us and JerryRigEverything, this feature is performative more than anything, since the glass on the Cybertruck is pretty normal automotive glass. So that won't stop any kind of bullet. If you want or need actual protection from guns, you should go to an armored-vehicle upfitter that can provide a vehicle with actual armored glass in addition to panels
. Still, this does show that the Cybertruck can stop many common handgun bullets and your garden-variety .22LR — provided they aren't pointed at the glass. Make sure you don't end up on Hans Gruber's bad side.
