Tesla Cybertruck Rental in Orange County
This black Tesla Cybertruck, the higher specification of the two we run, is based in Orange County, wrapped in black over bare stainless steel. Stop at a light and strangers pull out phones without pretending otherwise. The bed cover rolls open at a button press, and steer by wire keeps your hands from ever crossing on a tight corner near Santiago Canyon Road.
How It Drives
The Cybertruck is built differently from every other vehicle on the road. The body is stainless steel and structural rather than panels hung on a frame, which is why it has no paint and why the shape is all flat planes, since the steel cannot be stamped into curves. It uses a forty eight volt electrical system where the industry standard is twelve, and the steering is by wire with no mechanical link between the wheel and the front axle. Take it around a tight corner near Santiago Canyon Road and the ratio does the work for you, so your hands never cross. Six hundred horsepower, sixty in 4.1 seconds. Everything about how it works is a departure, and you notice within a block.
How It Photographs
The black wrap over the bare stainless is what separates this truck from the silver Cybertrucks people have mostly seen in photos and video. Instead of mirroring the sky the way an unwrapped truck does, the black reads as a shadow, flat and hard edged in direct sun, which is a cleaner look for a still photograph. Park it against the light stucco outside South Coast Plaza or near the water at Dana Point, and the flat panels hold their shape rather than throwing reflections back at the lens. It also means fewer fingerprints to wipe before a shoot. This is the stealth version of a truck built to be the opposite of stealthy.
Why This One
Two Cybertrucks in the fleet, and this is the higher specification of the pair. Nothing else we own is built from unpainted stainless steel, and the black wrap over it reads as a shadow in direct light rather than a mirror, which is the calmer version of the same shape. It is also the only vehicle we run with a working bed, sealed under a powered tonneau with outlets built in. Our other Cybertruck, the AWD, is a hundred dollars a day less if the exact specification matters less to you than the shape.
What's On This One
This is the dual motor Cybertruck, badged simply Cybertruck rather than Cybertruck AWD, with 600 horsepower over two motors and a claimed 4.1 second run to sixty. The body is bare stainless steel under a black wrap rather than paint, since the material cannot be stamped into curves or painted at all. Standard on this drivetrain is the six foot bed under a powered tonneau cover, a three outlet power setup built into the bed, a rear touchscreen for back seat passengers, and air suspension at all four corners. Five seats, four doors, all wheel drive.
