The ATV was reportedly an interesting design challenge due to ATVs being pretty dangerous, and they want to make an ATV that would be the least dangerous ATV. Elon Musk even added some details regarding Tesla's plans to make it happen.
The statement mentioned that the Cyberquad would have a very low center of gravity due to the battery pack going to be down low. It was noted that he thinks that they can do some things with the suspension in order to make it hard to roll the ATV.

It was noted that when the ATV is rolling, this is actually when bad things happen. Elon Musk noted that the Cyberquad would be an ATV that will not roll. As of the moment, it does not really sound like Tesla is at an advanced stage of design for the said Cyberquad.
As previously reported by Engadget, the original prototype unveiled at the said Cybertruck event was an actual Yamaha Raptor ATV that was converted to electric with a new Zero Motorcycle powertrain. Tesla, as of the moment, definitely still has some time in order to make this happen.
At the recent Tesla event, Elon Musk then linked the Cyberquad to the Cubietruck, which is itself going to be delayed to late 2022. Car company competitors like GM now wants to be the EV leader and take over Tesla when it comes to distributing EVs in the US as well as Camera.
