Tesla Schedules Cybertruck Production Wind-Down For Mid-2027 Arabian Post


Date:

(MENAFN- The Arabian Post) clearfix"> Tesla will dismantle its Cybertruck production line in Texas around the middle of 2027, shifting manufacturing capacity towards its Cybercab autonomous taxi after the electric pickup failed to meet sales expectations.

Chief executive Elon Musk said the company would add another production shift to fulfil outstanding Cybertruck orders before removing the line, potentially in June or July next year. His clarification followed an announcement that Tesla would wind down manufacturing at its Gigafactory Texas plant to accommodate greater Cybercab output.

The decision marks a substantial reversal for a vehicle that Musk once expected to sell at a rate of 250,000 annually. Tesla has not announced an alternative manufacturing location, and its Austin facility is the only known company plant equipped to produce the pickup's specialised components.
