Musk says Tesla will end Cybertruck output around mid-2027 for Cybercab

Tesla's chief executive said the Texas factory will stop building the stainless-steel pickup around the middle of next year to free capacity for robotaxi production.

Why it matters: Musk is redirecting Tesla's factory capacity from a slow-selling pickup to robotaxis, while a possible Tesla-SpaceX merger would create a listed company holding more than 30,000 BTC.

Key points

  • Musk said Cybertruck production at Gigafactory Texas will wind down around the middle of next year for more Cybercab output
  • Tesla delivered 8,295 vehicles in its "other models" category in the third quarter, down 48% year on year, Electrek reported

The Tesla chief executive announced the move in a post on X on 6 November 2026, replying to a user who praised the pickup. Wes Morrill, the truck's lead engineer, said the Cybertruck was an "incredible technology development platform" that lives on through the Cybercab.

The stainless-steel pickup, first delivered in late 2023, has struggled to find buyers.

Musk has put the Cybercab at the centre of his push to turn Tesla into an AI and robotics company. The two-seater, which has no steering wheel or pedals, was unveiled in October 2024 and began offering rides in limited areas of Austin on 3 September, Reuters reported. Tesla began producing it in April and had 45 registered in Texas at the launch.

What to watch: Tesla's board and SpaceX's board have formed special committees of independent directors to evaluate a possible merger, which would need approval from SpaceX's controlling shareholder.
