I guess the unique thing is the drive by wire.
Don't exactly see the superior technology of tesla. But it'll be exciting when they roll these tech into the Model Y/3.

You are mixing stuff up.
What Benz/Audi/BMW has been using 48v for are for their electrical starter and any high-draw components. Their entire electrical system architecture for everything else is still run on 12v and same applies to their EV. As far as I'm aware, all legacy carmakers still run their electrical system on 12v.
The 800v on Hyundai is the high voltage system that the drivetrain system is designed. It's still 12v architecture for its electricals.
