CTOnews.com, Oct. 16 (Xinhua) this summer, hurricanes, floods and other natural disasters hit many parts of the United States, causing damage to houses, breaking bridges and killing at least 50 people.

For example, Hurricane Ian, which just passed a few days ago, brought us some interesting stories, similar to how new energy vehicles that support discharge helped improve the lives of people affected by the disaster when there was a power outage in the community.

One user posted a description of how Tesla Model 3 helped him avoid the flood. It is said that after the car was flooded to a certain extent, Tesla will automatically drop the window and open the door to help the owner escape.

Some users believe that a good setting of this strategy can help the car owner escape in time, but it is best to ask the personnel in the car to confirm it, otherwise it will be dangerous when there is no one in the car or the personnel in the car are trapped and do not master the correct escape method. Of course, this is a very extreme situation, and Tesla has not given instructions to use it at present.

It is worth noting that if the vehicle accidentally falls into the water, it is difficult to open the door after being immersed in the water for a period of time. Because there is a large pressure difference between the car and the outside of the car due to the large amount of air in the car, it is difficult for the user to open the door directly, unless the car also enters a lot of water or opens the window in time when falling into the water. Of course, if the window is closed all the time, the trapped person can also use sharp objects, such as safety hammers, headrest, etc., to break the window and escape.

However, Tesla seems to have a different understanding of this kind of design. CTOnews.com reported that when introducing the Cybertruck electric pickup truck, Musk said bluntly that the truck could be used as a "boat" for a short time and could cross rivers, lakes and even less rough seas.

According to Teslarati, the straight line from the SpaceX base to South Padre Island is less than 500m, while it takes about 15 to 25 minutes for Cybertruck to cross the strait at a speed of 3 to 10 knots, just a few minutes faster than a detour.
