Smaller windshield wiper spotted in latest Tesla Cybertruck video? Also without door handles.

There really is something interesting going on with the steering. It looks as if it is a very high steering ratio in order to make the front tires rotate that quickly. This is also seen in other videos. Anyone have any thoughts as to why that might be or is it a non-event?

Likely drive/steer by wire where the ratio is increased at low speeds allowing for much easier turning, especially when using a yoke. Though we don't see it in any current CT videos footage, It would be practical to believe it would also reduce the ratio at higher speeds so that oversteering is reduced as well.

So you think progressive steering will be available at production? I remember Elon stating that if regulations can't allow for steer-by-wire, having a geared steering system to allow for variable ratios would add complexity.

Saw this short video via reddit post today. Normally don't put much stock into 'new' videos but the windshield wiper does look different.

What the hell is that disgusting thing hanging on the side of the door? Yuck. And the wiper looks like a half-size foldable. Where's my laser blaster?

I had a 2003 Toyota Prado a lreadywith variable rate steering, not that complicated to do mechanically. Others do it, no reason CT can't have it.

I believe steer-by-wire is allowed in the US already:

Toyota bZ4x
Lexus RZ450e
Infiniti Q50

The more I see those headlights the less I like them, makes the gap between bumper and front fascia too big. OG proto that had them in the bumper looked better.

I love the BAW. One thing I cannot wait for with the CT is the fact I’ll never have to clean out the wiper troth again.

I love the BAW.

BAW is Cybertruck’s codpiece

Yes, it's old... the reason it looks like CGI is because of the steer by wire making the wheels snap almost to seem fake. I could really care less about what the wiper looks like... really, after seeing this truck in all its "BEAUTY" the wiper is merely a bug splatter. Bring it on!!!

Yes I noticed the speed of the string to.

Yaa.

What is a road raged bikie going to do?

Come over and kick the door in?

Bend the BAW?
