Tesla released a software update for the Cybertruck, version 2025.8.4, on March 26, 2025. It brings changes to the steer-by-wire system. This setup replaces the usual steering link with electronic controls. The update makes the steering wheel react better to different roads. It aims to improve how the truck drives and feels.
Steering System Gets Better Feedback
The steer-by-wire feature is only on the Cybertruck among Tesla’s electric vehicles. It uses electronics to turn the wheels instead of a physical connection. The new update adjusts it to give drivers more accurate control. It responds to road surfaces in a way that feels natural. This should help with precision and ease while driving.
Remote Suspension Control Added
The 2025.8.4 update lets owners change the air suspension height from their phone. You need the Tesla app version 4.42.5 or higher for this. Before, adjustments were only possible on the truck’s touchscreen. Now, it’s easier to set the height from anywhere.
Cybertruck Stays Agile
Even with its big size, the Cybertruck handles well. The steer-by-wire and four-wheel steering give it a tight turning circle. It beats the smaller Tesla Model S in this area. The latest update builds on that, making the truck more capable in narrow spots.
Tesla Keeps Improving Vehicles Over-the-Air
Tesla often sends updates like this through the internet. The 2025.8.4 version started reaching Cybertrucks this week. No full details have come from Tesla yet. But the steering and suspension upgrades show they’re working to make the truck better after it’s sold.
