Tesla\u2019s is way down in the Google results.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An electric-pickup page could connect Cybertruck with the practical criteria buyers use to compare trucks, including towing, payload, range, charging, and total ownership cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rivian ranks first for \u201celectric SUVs,\u201d which receives 5,500 monthly searches with very little ranking competition.
