Stepping up to the all-wheel-drive model adds a front motor that pushes power to 600 hp , slashing the century sprint time to 4.3 seconds. Torque is claimed to be an insane 10,080 Nm, although that figure is at the wheels, multiplied by the ratio of the single-speed transmission. The actual figure, divided by a ratio of 15.02:1, is 671 Nm.
The Cybertruck is also the first Tesla to feature an 800-volt architecture that should allow for higher sustained charging speeds at DC fast chargers . It’s also the first production vehicle to come with a 48-volt electrical architecture, allowing for lower amperage and thus thinner wires.
