A Hummer H2 has pulled off a slick flex as it took on a Tesla Cybertruck in an off-road hill climb challenge.

The two vehicles attempted the short but very steep Loop 2 section in Lake Ozark Offroad Park in Missouri. 

And it’s fair to say that the Hummer H2 declared an easy victory over the Telsa Cybertruck. 

In fact, the driver even showed off a little bit with a somewhat unnecessary – yet pretty cool – move.

The Hummer H2 and the Tesla Cybertruck took on the steep hill

There’s no denying that the Tesla Cybertruck is an impressive vehicle; it can tackle deep waters with no problem, is virtually impenetrable, and even offers its owners a place to spend the night

However, this Cybertruck was humbled when it went head-to-head with a Hummer H2 in a recent off-road hill climb. 

In the clip, which was shared on the Jett Full Throttle YouTube channel, the Tesla Cybertruck can be seen making its way up the hill but only managed to get around halfway before it began to roll back down. 

Next up, was the Hummer – and the driver had a little flex up their sleeve. 

The H2 positioned itself in front of the Cybertruck and then blasted right up the hill in reverse.

Impressive stuff, right? And maybe just a teeny bit show-offy?

The Cybertruck did make it up the hill eventually

The Tesla Cybertruck then took a second go at the hill and this time did make it to the top, but it was clear there was quite a struggle to get there – and it’s hard to imagine the EV even attempting to do it backwards. 

In the Cybertruck’s defense, it’s a particularly weighty vehicle – tipping the scales at around 3,129kg (6,898lbs) even without anyone behind the wheel. 

The Hummer H2 is almost as heavy, weighing around 3,000kg (6,614lbs) but it carries most of its weight in the front – as that’s where the engine is – meaning it’s well-equipped to handle a hill in reverse, like we saw in the clip.
