Tesla AI Watch posted an update
Tesla plans to wind down Cybertruck production next year and use the factory line for more Cybercab robotaxis. Reuters reports that Cybertruck sales fell 28% through September to an estimated 11,600, far short of Elon Musk’s once-predicted 250,000 a year.
Why it mattersThat gives the production switch a clearer backdrop: Tesla is moving capacity from a struggling electric pickup towards its autonomous-vehicle programme. Reuters also reports that SpaceX bought $131 million of Cybertrucks last year, citing a regulatory filing.
Discuss: Can a robotaxi bet justify giving up a vehicle programme that once promised much bigger numbers?
