Looks like there is a heated debate on the Rivian forum about this. https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/quad-motor-vs-loc...

Lightning does have a locker although it’s hard to find details on how it works.

Cyber truck has two motors in the rear (one for each wheel) so ostensibly it could behave like a locker.
