There's also this Ukrainian report on the matter but it's in Ukrainian, so I'm sharing the Mastodon post in English.

Does a fully charged CyberTruck have enough range to drive from... wherever it is, to say... Kursk?

It would be the funniest thing in a while if Ukraine managed to hack into the Autopilot and tell the thing to drive itself across the frontline to be captured.

Just because I don't really know the geography there, I thought I'd look it up. Sticker range on the cybertruck is apparently 500km, which (as the crow flies) would get you from Moscow to Kursk, or from Kursk to Kyiv.

Tesla sticker ranges are optimistic. You can achieve them if you drive slowly, but not at highway speed
