Well the Cybertruck's windows seem easily broken at any rate.

But if you have to break windows to exit a car that has basically a slightly slower-speed bomb as its power source, you're toast. Literally.

    Not easily enough. Most other manufacturers have the rear and door windows made of sugar glass. first thing to brake in a crash and allows crews to get in and occupants to get out. This was because in a crash the door frame can be damaged and stops the door opening. I know rescue crews have tools to cut laminate windows like this but I doubt it has any practical benefit and makes it harder to self evacuate.
