Tesla Plans to End Cybertruck Production as Demand Falls Short
Tesla will phase out Cybertruck manufacturing at its Texas factory in the middle of next year. NPR reports that insufficient demand is behind the decision.
Tesla is preparing to end production of the Cybertruck, one of its most polarizing vehicles. Manufacturing will be wound down at the company’s Gigafactory Texas facility around the middle of next year.
Insufficient demand is the central reason for the decision, according to NPR. The vehicle attracted sharply divided reactions during its time on the road, but that attention did not translate into enough demand to sustain production.
The planned wind-down will bring the Cybertruck’s manufacturing run to a close. Tesla’s Texas factory is the site named for the end of production, with the change expected in the middle of next year.
