Tesla spotted driving Cybertruck into ocean after claiming it will float (electrek.co)

While not recommended, we've already seen existing models being used as watercraft for brief periods of time.

Will Cybertruck be even more waterproof?

I’ve driven my jeep there too. This wasn’t really “driving into the ocean” by any stretch of the imagination. They drove it down the beach, splashing up some water, but this is common there as it’s one of only a couple of beaches that allows vehicle traffic at all.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to seeing some tests in deeper water.
