Tesla to Cease Cybertruck Production, Shifts Focus to Cybercab
Tesla said it will stop manufacturing the Cybertruck at its Texas gigafactory next year after selling roughly 71,000 units, as drone-delivery company Zipline secured $1. 5 billion in funding.
The company also announced an additional production shift to clear pending Cybertruck orders before the line is dismantled for the upcoming Cybercab model. Earlier, Elon Musk had said the pickup would be phased out to focus on the Cybercab autonomous-taxi concept after weak sales, and industry reports noted a broader slump in full-size electric pickup demand that is pushing automakers toward smaller, cheaper trucks.
