Tesla’s unique stainless steel Cybertruck has been a polarizing electric vehicle (EV) since it was first shared last November, but in a recent review from one car mechanic, it was highlighted for its high-tech features, including its heat pump, 48-volt system, steer-by-wire, and more.
Over the weekend, YouTube channel The Car Care Nut Reviews shared an in-depth review of the Tesla Cybertruck, as hosted by Toyota Master Diagnostic Technician Ahmed, or AMD. The video looks at a wide range of the Cybertruck’s features, primarily including its electrical and heat pump systems, steer-by-wire capabilities, as well as exterior and interior features.
AMD starts by calling the Cybertruck a “Leap Forward” in terms of technology, jumping into talking about how the EV’s thermal management system works. Beyond this system and other commonly discussed features of the Cybertruck, the host also discusses several smaller elements, such as the Cybertruck’s lack of traditional door handles, the EV’s truckbed outlets, and it’s so-called “brave design.”
“I just have to say one thing about this car: this is not a car or a truck or whatever you want to call it,” AMD says near the video’s end. “This is a tech demo. This is a demonstration of what happens when a company is run by brilliant engineers that are given no limits.”
“No PR department, no legal, no nothing. Just the engineering department—that’s the entire budget,” the host added.

The video comes as the latest of several Tesla Cybertruck reviews shared over the last several months, with the vast majority that we’ve seen containing high praise for the new tech included with the vehicle. From off-road reviews to those with the Cybertruck facing off against other electric trucks, a number of people online have gotten their hands on the newest of Tesla’s releases for reviews—and many with positive things to say.
The aesthetic of the Cybertruck itself has been considered highly polarizing, although the EV landing the spot for the top vehicle sold in the U.S. for over $100,000 in both June and July obviously means that a lot of people are purchasing the vehicle.
The Cybertruck first began going out to customers in late November, and Tesla has been ramping up production of the EV at its Gigafactory Texas throughout this year. On Friday, nearly 1,000 Cybertruck units were spotted gathering in the Giga Texas outbound lot, coming as one of the highest numbers of the EV spotted at the factory yet.
