Blog Watch: New Clips from Jay Leno’s Cybertruck Test Drive

Another teaser of Jay Leno’s Garage featuring a test drive of the Cybertruck has been released ahead of the episode’s debut on Wednesday at 10:00 p.m. ET.

With Chief Executive Elon Musk in the passenger seat, Leno pilots the raw-metal, futuristic pickup through the streets of Los Angeles. Musk and Leno caused headlines when they were spotted in January filming the episode.

In the new clip, Leno notes that the truck has the responsiveness typical of Tesla’s electric vehicles. He also complimented the “greenhouse,” referring to the Cybertruck’s light-filled cab and abundance of armored glass.

Musk explained that the production version of the Cybertruck is expected to be better than the prototype, not a watered down design of a show car. However, he does expect the proportions to change a bit, about a 5 percent overall reduction in size. It seems the Cybertruck is not currently a good fit for garages.

The clip ends with Leno and Musk driving the Cybertruck through The Boring Company’s Los Angeles tunnel. Should be a fun look at some of Musk’s most exciting projects.

Check out the clip above.

Anyone notice, but Jay Leno has trouble keeping the car within the lines when he’s driving in traffic and when there’s cars parked on the side of the road how he’s having to drive into the other lane? Is it really that wide?
 
Best Elon quotes:

Jay: ... armored glass?

Elon: It's bad ass and super cool.

Elon: Do you want your truck to be bullet proof or not?

Jay: Well... I guess so...

Elon: We want to be a leader in post apocalypse technology.

:D :D :D

Also, Jay drove his personal Model S to the shoot.

What ARE the dimensions of the Cybertruck? I’m about to build a house in Texas and was just discussing this with my contractor/business partner. We talking about garage configurations and I want the Cybertruck to have a garage built for it to fit into, but we need to know the size of the truck before the garage is built.

It is the same dimensions as a F150 Supercrew
