## Key points

- Tesla will end Cybertruck production in mid-2027.
- Sales fell far short of the 250,000-a-year target.
- The factory space may be used for Cybercabs.

## Summary

Tesla plans to stop making the Cybertruck in mid-2027, ending its attempt to challenge established American pick-up trucks. The decision follows weak sales and a difficult development process, and will free factory space for other vehicles, likely including the Cybercab.

Unveiled in 2019, the Cybertruck was initially promised for under $40,000, with Tesla predicting annual sales of 250,000. Its original stainless-steel monocoque design gave way to a more conventional unibody chassis, while recalls and production difficulties marked its launch. Even sales to SpaceX did not make up for limited demand.
