As I drove to my stranded wife’s ICE SUV (come on Rivian, get your act together!) with a portable boost battery, I wondered if the Cybertruck will be able to boost stranded ICEs with dead batteries. We all know that current Teslas have small 12V batteries, but they aren’t built for the quick discharge necessary for starting an ICE. However the Cybertruck will be different. Elon has promised high power 240V output capability. It may have a different power bus than the standard 12V one that ICEs currently use. Anyways, any thoughts?
