The 800v is not relevant to “all the conductors within the car“. It is the move from 12 V to 48 V that allows them to reduce the thickness of all the wires within the car. That’s what the cybertruck introduced.

true - it's only relevant to high voltage high current conductors. There aren't many of those - from the charge port to the battery to the motors.

But those cables can easily be 10kg+ and $100+.
