For a few years now, there is a maximum among engine journalists when someone asks us about a car: I can tell you if I like reliability It refers. And we cannot know how time will pass through the car. Of those cars that have been in the market for some time, analysis can be done, Like those of the OCU or the celebrities of JD Power in the United Statesto understand your reliability. Also of engines used for many years by the same company. But, for example, with current Chinese cars it happens to us that we cannot glimpse their long -term reliability. It is something that time will say. Years ago that was supplied by the media with long -term tests. The cars used to be used in specialized writings for a year or a number of kilometers that could reach 100,000 or overcome this barrier and extend up to 200,000 or 250,000 kilometers. Those evidence, today, are almost exceptional. In the United States, however, they are still active among the most successful specialized media with greater support. An example is Edmundsa magazine that will be 60 years in the market next year and that is one of the greatest references in the country. Without the possibility of receiving a long -term assignment, the magazine decided to get a Tesla Cybertruck to submit it to a long -distance test. His intention was to verify How the new Electric Pick-up of Tesla agedstudying the costs of its maintenance and any other type of problem that could arise. But the problem that has arisen is that its Tesla Cybertruck is worth $ 8,000. In five months, the magazine has seen how its more than $ 100,000 paid by the electric car have vanished. A blow has ruined the long -term test. Repairing it costs Cuatro Dacia Sandero The journalists of Edmunds explain in your article That last summer they bought a Tesla Cybertruck. They did it after having entered the waiting list to acquire one thanks to the reservation of 100 dollars that had been deposited in 2019. Then, the car was sold by Tesla as a gigantic pick-up pick-up of steel bullets or balls (Ahem) that would be put in the market for a price of less than $ 40,000. More than five years later, Tesla still does not find an affordable model To give a new push to its sales and the Cybertruck began to Sell ​​over $ 100,000. Specifically, 101,985 dollars paid in Edmunds By rejecting the Cyberbeast option, which adds the FSD autonomous driving functions and multiple aesthetic details. Of course, the price would have been increased by another $ 20,000. They said then that they considered that, or not, it was “one of the most interesting cars that have been launched in recent years.” And they stressed that “we will do everything with him, from the usual tests of EDMUNDS EV And the load tests until proven its off -road capacity, put a microscope in that body and check what it is to live with this brutalist beast day by day. (…) We will also watch how it behaves Full Self-Driving In such a large vehicle. And, of course, you will probably see it in a career, because … why not? “ However, enthusiasm soon vanished within the writing of Edmunds. They explain that after five months of this one-year test they parked the pick-up on the street and never started again. In fact, What started from rennet was the rear axle. On December 11, 2024, a car that crossed an intersection had an accident, was fired against the car and crashed into the car, affecting the rear wheel and bumper. This caused damage to the wheel, the tire, the steel panel, the bumper and “doctors” of internal elements. The impact was so great that he moved the Cybertruck to the sidewalk next to the one he was parked despite his 2,995 kg of weight. In Edmunds They had to imagine that the repair was going to be expensive because “part of the rear axle had fallen to the ground.” There was no choice but to call the crane. And the nightmare began. Click on the image to go to the original tweet They ensure in the middle that no independent workshop was willing to take care of the car repair, so they had to contact the official Tesla service. But, even within the company, there are only a handful of stores that have the certification to work with the stainless steel body. Although they claim that angels is the city with the most cybertruck on the planet (we would say in the United States since it is only sold there), only two spaces within a radius of 90 kilometers have permission to work with the car. One of the stores confirmed that they would have to tow the car and wait a month to receive an estimate of the damage and the cost of repair. Then, they would have to tow the car again to a parking lot and wait another five months before repairs began when they would have to tow the car. In its second option, the technical service also estimated the waiting time before giving the budget but would begin repair at the end of whether they were satisfied with it. Of course, a few days before carrying the car from Tesla they called Edmunds To tell them that they were saturated and that they could not give them a budget until another month later. In total, they had to wait two months to have a budget. The valuation had a cost of $ 1,128 And it was conclusive: repairing the car would cost 57,879.89. When they searched for the current vehicle value they found that before having suffered an accident, it is quoted at $ 86,160. That is, with the repair they were only wasting time and money. The breakdown, published by the medium was as follows: Stripes and … Read more
