What reviewers say

Reviewers find the Cybertruck surprisingly comfortable, quiet and quick, with steer-by-wire steering that feels strange at first but makes the huge truck easy to manoeuvre. Both think it ill-suited to European roads; Autocar also criticised the screen-only controls, some cheap-looking trim and poor rear visibility with the bed cover closed.
