Tesla to End Cybertruck Production by Mid-2027
· Automobile · The Independent, TechCrunch
Tesla will wind down production of the Cybertruck by mid-2027 at its facility near Austin, Texas, to prioritize the Cybercab robotaxi. Elon Musk confirmed on X that the company will add an extra production shift to fulfill as many outstanding orders as possible before the line closes in approximately eight months. Many customers who placed deposits for the vehicle will receive refunds as demand exceeds the company's remaining production capacity. The Cybertruck, which launched in 2019, will conclude its run after failing to capture widespread market demand.
Why it matters
The discontinuation of the Cybertruck marks a strategic shift for Tesla as it pivots resources toward autonomous-driving technology and the Cybercab robotaxi.
