Tesla will stop making the Cybertruck next year, according to CEO Elon Musk, who said on X that the company will use the factory space to build more two-seater Cybercab robotaxis.
The decision to wind down the futuristic, steel-clad EV comes after just a few short years of underwhelming sales. When Musk handed over the first few Cybertrucks in late 2023, he predicted Tesla would sell around 250,000 per year. It was supposed to be such a cornerstone of Tesla’s future that, before construction began, the company talked about its Texas factory as the “Cybertruck factory.” But Tesla has instead sold just tens of thousands — total — over the last three years.

Why on Earth would someone design a cab to only seat two people? The only time in the last two years that I’ve used a cab, it was to travel with a group.
The best guess I can figure is that an insufferable loser like Elon can’t fathom having two or more people that want to be in the same car as him.
so they can sell a 2nd cab to the other 2 people
100% agree

When my son was six, he thought it was so cool. “If I drew a cybertruck, that’s how Id draw it.”
My son, 9, now says “A cybertruck looks like a 6 year old drew it.”
I will always love that my kid has more awareness than Elon Musk.
Elon demonstrates sales projections.
He thought sales would be up here…
So how does this compare to some of histories worst cars ever now that we know the scale of this one? I keep thinking of the back to the future car as an example but I might be mixing it up.
I’m not a car industry expert, but the cybertruck has to go down as one of the biggest failures. I think in large part due to the trajectory of sales expected vs realized, and what might have been if Tesla put all that focus into the cheap, modest model they kept promising.
they should have stopped in 2023
I predict a similar headline regarding robotaxis in another 2 years time
Remember to point and laugh at every Cybertruck you see (while you can)! They knew who Musk was, and supported him anyway…
I legit thought i was the only person who did this! A guy near my office owns one and started to recognize me in my lesser ev and now it’s a race to see if i can point and laugh before he flips me off. Now i change it up on him and shake my head at him while wearing the biggest, shit eating grin.
Maybe it’s petty of me. Or maybe we need to bring public shaming back to counteract the Elmo brainworm all these sycophants have🤷🏻♂️
Open season on cybertruck owners. The car isn’t as ugly as who they bought it from.
My friends and I recoil in disgust whenever we see one. I hope Cybertruck drivers see nothing but grossed out faces. It’s the visual equivalent of stepping in dog shit
I actually saw one of those ‘I bought this before we knew he was crazy’ stickers on one in the wild. Like, no buddy, you were fully aware of the monster he was at that point.
God i hate theae stickers. Who’s “we”?
Tge other day i was behind a tesla who had a Nikola Tesla sticker on the back that said: &%#@ Edison. I absolutely loved the irony hatin on an imposter while driving the car of an absolute imposter shitstain.
Right, that would only work for the oldest Teslas
I fortunately have never seen one IRL, even living in a European city where people have more cents than sense.
I just call em Andriod Buttplugs
Leave it to Elon to quit making one of the dumbest products in history just so he can make something even dumber.
Fortunately they are so terrible and Tesla is so terrible at providing parts that these will all be off the road within a few years.
Holy shit. They were still making new ones?!
Not really. There’s a massive stockpile of them that they’re trying to flog to the US govt. That might have become much more difficult since last week.
Family rule is that every time we see a Cyber Truck, we all have to yell “loser” like Jim Carrey did in Ace Ventura.
