Discussion: What Features Do You Think Are Missing From the Cybertruck?

[CyberGus]

Rearward visibility is poor, so I would prioritize the digital mirror and rear cam washer.

Fortunately, I drive fast enough that I don't need to see what's behind me

• Rear cross traffic alert !!!
• Better brakes (should be capable of locking up the tires)
• Homelink
• Aux wireless camera input (can pair with remote cameras to be placed anywhere (trailer, in bed, etc)
• FSD

Shut off option for phone charger so I can still use the tray to store my phone. It literally cooks your phone without giving it any charge at all.

 

[SteelMyHeart]

I agree with shut off option for phone charger.

I have 3 kids that fill the back row. Would like some sort of cupholder attachment for center console below screen so kid in the middle doesn't have to use side door for a cupholder.

I would love a white faux leather center console cover with cybertruck silhouette or graffiti logo like they have for model Y etc. It would add cushioning and wouldn't show my arm sunscreen

I'll play...

Hands down 1st choice and if I could only have one thing: rear window pass-through

Other than that I'd love any of the following:

• AC and USB-C outlets in the frunk
• "Oh $#!t" handles
• Brighter/bigger blind spot warning lights on the A column
• Front bench seat
• Step/mechanism to get into bed
• Suspension height control from app
• Step on brake to close driver door
• Integrated air compressor
• A better windshield washer fluid dispenser / spray system
• Remote sentry event viewing
• A true heads up display projected onto the window in front of me

I changed my mind about wanting / needing a digital review mirror. Now that I have removed the worthless rear view mirror from the window and adjusted my brain to fully to just looking down at the screen I'm good. I prefer the even more open and unobstructed front view ?

1) Keep rear mirror displayed while adding side view when turning.

2) Volume control for exterior speakers.

3) Ability to ride on ‘High’ while in the city to improve visibility

Digital rearview mirror

I'd like some of the features they showed off during the original reveal.

• tailgate with integrated ramp
• onboard air pump

 

[petercyber]

I like the ones mentioned, but I will add a couple.

• Instrument panel
• Android auto
• Brighter/bigger blind spot warning lights on the A column
• Steering column stalks
• Lockable under rear seat storage
• Built in window shades for rear windows
• Opening Sunroof
• More cup holders
• 6th seat, front bench seat
• "Oh $#!t" handles
• More L-track in the bed. 2nd track along the side corners
• A place to mount a winch
• 48v winch
• A rear view camera that works with the tailgate down

I second the following ones,

• Lockable under rear seat storage
• 6th seat, front bench seat
• A place to mount a winch
• A rear view camera that works with the tailgate down

 

[petercyber]

a bigger windshield wiper!

Rear Bumper Footwells - like the GMC's have - aka easier to get into the bed
O **** Handles
12 Power source (vs. 48v) or both
Accessory to make the front / center floor storage more useful
Electronic/Hydraulic detachable sway bars - think this is the biggest miss
In bed / cargo camera & rear camera washer
integrated air compressor as shown on prototype
integrated ramp as shown on prototype
red brake calipers on the Tri Motor
More Tire Choices (they're comming but not here yet)
L-Track along the front of the bed
Bit larger battery, say 150kw

The truck is fantastic and very happy as is, but everything can always be improved!

Bit larger battery, say 150kw. (For me this is a huge one, the Cyberbeast is my first ever Tesla product and you can call me whatever you want, but I think the battery is way to small for what the truck does. The Hummer has 200+ battery pack, I'm pretty sure Tesla could have done that, the Cyberbeast knocks everything out of the park but the battery.)

Can't believe all the folks asking for a window that opens to the bed... Those were fine back when you were allowed to have PEOPLE RIDING in the back, but not sure what good it would do now other than to be like my last truck was and it just screwed up the 'view' from my mirror...

I would like to see:
Camera in the bed/vault - maybe where window is or on rear corner somewhere?
Washer for camera in rear
Different position for rear camera so you can see with it when tailgate needs to be down
Fold out steps OR a built in ramp on tailgate
Camera's that you can ZOOM in (both front and rear)
Undercarriage camera view (for off-roading)
O **** handles for both front and rear (also helps folks get in!)
Built in Starlink!! w/1 year of free service
Aux camera input to put put a camera on back of trailers, or under the vehicle.
Ability to do 'tank turns' (basically spin in spot)

I want the window to be able to let HVAC in my CyberTent without having to buy that expensive duct work product. I am assuming a lot of us want it for the same tihing.

Ahhh, I see now... But if the window isn't big enough it won't be able to push much air through to the back will it?

I'm just picturing my old truck... Window was about 14 inches wide open... Not sure it would help that much if it's got to push air through that into the back end...

Hey, I know... If it's for COLD air, what about getting a small air conditioner (AC type) that you can plug in in the back? A small heater (during cold times) wouldn't be an issue...

But I would think running the HVAC all night would tend to drain the battery quite a bit...

Food for thought though... Thanks, I REALLY didn't see any reason worth it...

I have been experimenting with portable A/C units and all the ones I have tried suck so far. I know the super large ones tend to work, but they aren't that "portable" and cost a ton. A portable heater could work but would be curious if that would draw more energy from the CT compared to just leaving the HVAC on it the truck. ?‍
