Tesla plans to wind down Cybertruck production at its Texas factory around mid-2027 to make room for increased Cybercab output, Elon Musk said. It has not confirmed whether the pickup will be built elsewhere.
What the briefing reports
Tesla plans to wind down production of its Cybertruck pickup at Gigafactory Texas around the middle of 2027, according to chief executive Elon Musk. Musk said the change would free factory capacity for increased production of Tesla's Cybercab, a purpose-built robotaxi. The announcement concerns a future change in manufacturing and does not mean Cybertruck production has already ended.
Musk did not specify whether the electric pickup would move to another factory or whether production would cease entirely. Reuters reported on November 7 that Tesla intends to add another shift in Texas to work through outstanding Cybertruck orders ahead of the planned transition. The exact schedule remains subject to further announcements.
The angular stainless-steel Cybertruck began reaching customers in late 2023 but has struggled to match Tesla's early sales expectations. Its unconventional design attracted attention, while pricing revisions, recalls and weaker demand complicated its commercial trajectory.
