Unlike the Model S, the Cybertruck is not a pioneer but a latecomer, and it'll be all the harder for it to have the impact Tesla's first EV did.

I beg to differ. The Cybertruck is introducing a 48 volt low voltage architecture (up from the traditional 12 volts) and is the first commercially-available vehicle to use a pure steer-by-wire system with no mechanical linkage between the steering wheel and the road wheels.

Those two items alone make the Tesla Cybertruck a pioneer (and are the only two things I find interesting about the Cybertruck.)

What could go wrong?
