Locking Differentials

2024.14.6 Official Tesla Release Notes - Software Updates (17)

Available Worldwide

Models:

CT

You can now engage the locking differentials. On uneven or slippery terrain, if a wheel has limited or no traction, Cybertruck will direct torque to the opposite wheel. This helps the vehicle continue moving in low-traction environments.

For off-roading, choose from the locking differential options on the vehicle status area, or in the Off-Road app.

Engaging locking differentials while driving on roads is helpful if you temporarily need extra grip on loose or uneven terrain, such as getting un-stuck from a snow bank. Navigate to Dynamics > Engage Rear Locking Differential.

Use with caution as maneuverability and traction are reduced when turning. Don’t use on high-traction surfaces such as asphalt. Doing so will result in damage to the drivetrain. Refer to the Owner’s Manual before using this feature.

Trail Assist

2024.14.6 Official Tesla Release Notes - Software Updates (18)

Available Worldwide

Models:

CT

Trail Assist maintains a set cruising speed with minimal slip on rough or steep terrain so you can focus on steering. Adjust the set speed by swiping on the right scroll wheel. Unlike cruise control, when you brake, Trail Assist stays active and resumes the set speed when you release the pedal.

To enable, go to Controls > Dynamics > Off-Road Mode > Trail Assist. This feature won’t steer, navigate, avoid obstacles, stop, or otherwise operate the vehicle on its own. Continue to pay attention and be ready to take immediate action. Refer to the Owner's Manual for more information.

Slippery Surface

2024.14.6 Official Tesla Release Notes - Software Updates (19)

Available Worldwide

Models:

CT

Slippery Surface optimizes Traction Control for driving on snowy, icy, wet, or slick roads to distribute traction evenly across all tires. Even when this setting is off, Cybertruck continuously detects characteristics of the current driving surface and automatically adapts Traction Control.

In your vehicle settings, go to Dynamics > Slippery Surface.

Use with caution as maneuverability and traction are reduced when turning. Don’t use on high-traction surfaces such as asphalt. Doing so will result in damage to the drivetrain. Refer to the Owner’s Manual before using this feature.
