Cybertruck Automations

Cybertruck has its own software branch and often gets features on a different schedule. Treat everything here as unconfirmed for Cybertruck until launch.

What to know for the Cybertruck

  • The rear “trunk” on Cybertruck is the tonneau and tailgate. How the Trunk action maps to them is not known yet.
  • Cybertruck-specific controls (tonneau, suspension, outlets) are not in the reported action list.

Tesla has not published per-model feature lists for Automations. These notes come from each car’s hardware; we will confirm them after launch.
