Cybertruck vs P85+ Dynamic mini Review

[chilam]

I've been driving my 2023 P85+ (aka BrownUPS) for over 6 years and love the driving dynamics of it. I just got the Dual Motor AWD Cybertruck (aka COLDROLL) last friday (04/05/24) and have driven it for 135 miles and here's my take on it. Like many reviews have mentioned, the Cybertruck is a BIG truck, but it drives small thanks to its 4-wheel steering and Variable ration steer-by-wire system. While initially it takes getting used to, but the system is very easy to get comfortable with and the size of the truck just kind of disappeared like magic in no time! Today, I have gotten back to driving my beloved BrownUPS. While it felt alot lighter around corners, but at local street, it felt like I'm in the anime/manga, Initial-D. Specifically, the episode of Gum/Duct Tape Deathmatch, where one needs to race with one's hand duct taped to the steering wheel and are not free to move around therefore could not do hand-over-hand maneuvers. When you forgot that you need extra efforts to do a 90 degrees turn, you felt helpless and needed to stretch your muscle just get that extra effort in to make that turn - just like having the hand taped to the steering wheel. Regen on the newer Tesla (and Cybertruck) makes it feel like there's no regen on my model S. It takes a bit of time to rewind the technology clock to get used to the old hand-over-hand maneuvers. Cybertruck has spoiled us!!!
