CTOnews.com, December 16 (Xinhua)-- Elon Musk (Elon Musk) announced last September that the Cybertruck is strong enough to be waterproof enough to temporarily act as a boat across rivers, lakes and even less rough seas.

However, Tesla officially did not quantify the meaning of "acting temporarily". If it is only a few minutes, it is not much different from other models, while if it is a few hours, then the Cybertruck is required to be amphibious.

Musk said that when the sea was "not too rough", Cybertruck could cross the Strait to South Padre Island from the SpaceX interstellar base in Bokaccika, Texas.

Musk did not explicitly mention this at his delivery event on November 30.

Tesla has added a "wading mode" to the car to help it cope with the large amount of water that may occur during the storm, CTOnews.com reported on the 7th of this month.

Cybertruck's "wading mode" is listed as one of the vehicle's off-road configurations, and its function is described as: "increase the body height and pressurize the battery while wading."

Foreign media autoevolution dug deep into the Tesla Cybertruck parts catalogue and found more information about pressurizing the battery.

In the parts catalog, Tesla named the circuit for the introduction of compressed air into the battery pack "Scuba Pack Airline". In addition, they are connected to the compressed air tank of the air suspension through a "submersible valve block assembly", and the whole system gives the impression that Cybertruck is dressed in a swimsuit rather than a boat.
