I’m curious if this is a “Cyber Truck” issue or an electric vehicle / drive train issue. I mean, do the electric motors in these vehicles have “gears”?
I don’t think it’s something with it being electric. I haven’t had snow in a while, but about 2 years ago I went to an unplowed parking lot and some unplowed streets to see how my Model Y would work and it handled 3-4 inches fine.
They have the ability to make some kind of vehicle that can handle a few inches of snow, it’s wild this would be an issue in a vehicle that people are likely to take off the road.
I wonder if the tires on the Cybertruck are too narrow for it’s weight or something.
Technically they have gears, but not as you normally think of gears.
In my opinion, Partially it’s an electric vehicle thing (lots of torque) and partially it’s a software thing (wheel slip and torque control algorithms)
The suspension design and tire size choice could affect this as well, but not as much in my opinion as the previous points.

These trucks are really heavy, being made out of metal. Google says 6600-6800lbs while a F150 is 4200-5700 lbs
No idea on the drive train, would be interesting to see though!
