Tesla CEO Elon Musk has revealed some tiny pieces of new information about the Cybertruck while answering a tweet asking about its production and deliveries timeline.

Elon being Elon, did not give an exact timeline, rather said, “We’re adding rear-wheel steering, so it can do tight turns & maneuver with high agility.”

This is some interesting new secret he has unveiled, adding the 4-wheel steering control to the list of already badass Cybertruck features will make it a true revolutionary American-made pickup truck.

Friday afternoons are usually Tesla design studio time. Cybertruck will be almost exactly what was shown. We’re adding rear wheel steering, so it can do tight turns & maneuver with high agility. Lot of other great things coming.

Actually, last year GMC released a Hummer EV teaser (video below) that shows a four-wheel steering capability of the fully electric pickup truck. GMC called this feature “crab mode”. Now Cybertruck being a direct competitor of the upcoming Hummer EV, it is sensible for Tesla to offer this feature to its customers to claim its fair share in the pickup truck market in the near future.
