Ramzan Kadyrov, a Chechen warlord who had fought against the Russians and then turned into an ally of Russian leader Vladimir Putin, has released a video of himself driving a new Tesla Cybertruck in Grozny, the capital of the Chechen republic.

Looking fresh and in good mood, the strongman is filmed during a ride in the city downtown from inside and outside the 4WD vehicle, which has a machine-gun mounted in its back. He thanked American billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk for what he called a “donation” and praised the Cybertruck’s technical performance.

“We received a Tesla Cybertruck from the esteemed Elon Musk. I was delighted to test the new technology and personally confirmed that it is not called a "Cyber Beast" for nothing. It is a truly invulnerable and fast machine. The maneuverable vehicle develops excellent speed and overcomes obstacles. It is a very convenient car. Given these excellent characteristics, the Cybertruck will soon be sent to the special military operation zone, where it will be in demand under the corresponding conditions.

I am confident that this beast will bring a lot of benefits to our fighters,” Kadyrov said on his Telegram channel.

“I express my sincere gratitude to Elon Musk! He is undoubtedly the greatest genius and specialist of our time. A great man! And the Cybertruck has turned out to be a powerful project. Undoubtedly one of the best vehicles in the world! I am literally in love with this car. Elon, thank you! Come to Grozny, and I will welcome you as the most honored guest! I don't think our Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs will oppose such a trip. And, of course, we look forward to your new developments that will contribute to the completion of the special military operation,” the message goes on.

Elon Musk has denied donating any cars to the Chechen dictator. On the Tesla official portal, a 600-horse-power Cybertruck costs $100,000 while a Cyberbeast version is priced at $120,000. Kadyrov did not explain how he had obtained the car.
