I'm curious if this is a "Cyber Truck" issue or an electric vehicle / drive train issue. I mean, do the electric motors in these vehicles have "gears"?

These trucks are really heavy, being made out of metal. Google says 6600-6800lbs while a F150 is 4200-5700 lbs

No idea on the drive train, would be interesting to see though!

It's not an electric vehicle thing... Plenty of other EVs do fine in the snow. Mine even has a snow drive mode and it does pretty great on all season tires.

Get some good snow tire on one, maybe with a 2" suspension lift, in 4X4 mode then see how a Cybertruck handles snow
