This Tesla Cybertruck got a crazy snow track modification by an inventive YouTuber.
Content creator, Dave Sparks, known as HeavyDSparks on YouTube and Instagram, fitted the already iconic Tesla Cybertruck with snowmobile tracks.
“When the vehicle is the exact same shape as the tracks. This is one of the most ridiculously amazing things that we have ever built,” he said.

“I am more excited to drive this than anything I have driven in a very long time,” Sparks said on his Instagram.
It’s not entirely sure what his plans are for the modified Cybertruck – but we can’t wait to find out when he posts about it.
It’s not the first Tesla we’ve seen fitted with this type of modification.
He actually did the same with a Tesla Model 3 in 2020, and the resulting footage of the EV tackling snow-covered terrain was gripping (pun intended).
In a similar experiment, this Tesla Model 3 was also turned into the ultimate off-roading beast.
A group of friends in Germany, The Real Life Guys on YouTube, added two gigantic chains on either side of the Model 3, weighing 1.3 tons each.
And it was all to prank a friend.
The guys built the tracks around giant steel frames and added a heavy-duty suspension system.
Then in order to fit the tracks to the car, the Model 3 had to be driven onto a stack of six wooden pallets so it was high enough.
It took them six hours to fit the tracks properly – a job they said was not quite as straight-forward as they expected.
With the chains attached, the Tesla weighed a staggering six tons in total.
Tesla put the Cybertruck through rigorous winter testing during development.
These was leaked footage of it drifting in the snow before its release.
This YouTuber also tested how far the Cybertruck can tow 11,000lbs in freezing temperatures.
One owner even used his Cybertruck to work a coffee machine after cold weather causes a power outage.

All Supercar Blondie contributors undergo editorial review and fact-checking to ensure accuracy and authority in automotive journalism. After gaining her BA Hons in French and English at the University of Nottingham, Amelia embarked on a vocational diploma from the National Council for the Training of Journalists (NCTJ). This led to numerous opportunities, from interning at Vogue to being on the small team that launched Women’s Health magazine in the UK, which was named the PPA Consumer magazine of the year for three years running. As Health, Beauty and Fitness editor, Amelia personally received a Johnson & Johnson Award and was shortlisted for both PPA and BSME titles. Since then, Amelia has created content for numerous titles and brands, including the Telegraph, 111 Skin, Waitrose, Red magazine, Stylist, and Elle, as well as being Head of Content at Vitality and Editor in Chief at INLondon magazine. “My superpower is translating technical jargon about the mechanical workings of a supercar into a relatable story you’ll want to share with your friends after you’ve read it.” After joining the SB Media family as a senior journalist in September of 2023, Amelia’s role has evolved to see her heading up the SEO output of the editorial team. From researching the most ‘Google-able’ key terms to producing evergreen content - it’s been a time of hard work, growth, and success for the editorial team and the Supercar Blondie website. “I like to think of myself as a ‘method journalist’. In other words: I live and breathe whatever I am writing about. When writing about fitness, I trained as a personal trainer, and as a beauty editor, I completed an ‘expert’ in scent diploma with the Fragrance Foundation. “During my tenure at Supercar Blondie, however, I did something I never thought possible: I passed my driving test at the age of 36. One day I’d love to train as a mechanic to better understand what happens under the hood, too. “My sweet spot is providing readers with a ‘takeaway’ (read: something new they didn’t know before) after reading every one of my stories. While I don’t claim to be an expert in the automotive world, I know the experts and bodies in the field to rely on to provide our readers with an informative and thought-provoking story every time they visit the site.”
