Anyone found info on the turning radius, especially for the R1T? Just for fun I am building a spreadsheet comparing R1T to Chevy Avalanche and Jeep Rubicon, and a few others.

I have a 2dr Jeep Rubicon, which has a terrific short turning radius, much shorter than the 4dr (“Unlimited”) model. Have been on off-road outings in a group, once with a rented 4dr, and it makes a huge difference on maneuverability In tight spots. I love the Jeep but am hoping to replace it with an R1T.
I haven't seen a turning radius specification yet but I have read about a "tank mode" setting. With a motor at each wheel, through software the motors can be controlled to tighten up a turn similar to what a "tank" does with its tracks. I am surmising the vehicle could essentially pivot to make a turn. Given some off-road situations I have encountered such a mode would be very useful. Clearly such a feature would only be accessible at a very low speed.
