The recently released Model Y is the first Tesla to feature a heat pump and the Cybertruck will also benefit from a heat pump, confirmed Musk tonight in this tweet.
What's the big deal about a heat pump instead of the resistive heating system used in all Tesla models until now? The Model Y’s heat pump is estimated to be 300% more efficient than the resistive heating system and this efficiency advantage will increase the Cybertruck's range in cold weather.
The Model Y's heat pump is located in the front trunk and it both warms the vehicle's batteries as well as providing cabin heat.
Here are two good videos detailing the heat pump in the Model Y.
