Tesla will wind down production of its Cybertruck pickup at its Texas factory around the middle of 2027, according to an AFP report published by Malay Mail on Saturday (November 7) under the headline that Musk's futuristic Cybertruck is rolling toward the exit as Tesla pivots to robotaxi.
What the report says
The photo caption notes that the plan involves ending Cybertruck production in Texas around mid-2027. The headline links the move to Tesla's shift of focus towards robotaxis, which are self-driving vehicles intended to carry passengers without a human driver. The excerpt reviewed does not provide sales figures, the reasons given by the company or the number of workers affected.
Background
The Cybertruck was unveiled in November 2019 with a dramatic presentation in which its windows shattered during a resistance test, an episode that the report's picture recalls. Since then, the stainless steel pickup has been one of Tesla's most distinctive and debated products.
Why it matters
Ending a high-profile model would mark a significant change in Tesla's product plans and signals how much the company is investing in autonomous driving. Investors and customers will be looking for official statements to understand what happens to existing orders, service support and the factory's future use.
Readers should wait for Tesla's own announcements for confirmed timelines.
