It’s a characteristic that has been accessible in different markets, Europe most notably, however Tesla has labored with regulatory businesses to get it rolled out within the U.S., and the corporate has already confirmed it’s going to roll out to different autos.
Though it was not explicitly named by Tesla execs who stated the Adaptive Headlights would make their solution to autos throughout the lineup, many thought the Cybertruck would obtain the characteristic, particularly based mostly on its recognition and prowess.
However there was no direct affirmation, till now.
Lars Moravy, VP of Car Engineering for Tesla, confirmed that the Cybertruck would get the Adaptive Headlights, in a submit on X:

This affirmation solidified that the Cybertruck does have the required {hardware} to allow Matrix Headlights, which is one thing the corporate will work on rolling out sooner or later.
As of proper now, Teslarati can verify Tesla is rolling out the characteristic with the brand new Mannequin Y first. It should then make its solution to different autos as time goes on, however we can not verify which automobiles within the lineup are taking precedence. We estimate that it’ll make its solution to the brand new Mannequin Y, legacy Mannequin Y, and each iterations of Mannequin 3 earlier than the Cybertruck, after which Mannequin S and Mannequin X.
We made this prediction based mostly on the truth that the mass market autos would get the characteristic initially.
