Even Cybertrucks aren't purely 48V and ethernet.

There's a high voltage (800V) rail for high current devices like the AC compressor. There's redundant CAN for communication with things like the motors. There's a host of 12V, 16V, 5V components (door locks, lights, seat motors, etc.).

They did switch many components to 48V, but not literally everything.
