Tesla will continue to produce the Cybertruck through summer 2027

Elon Musk recently announced plans to cease production of the EV next year.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has updated the information regarding the upcoming end of production on the Cybertruck. After previously saying production would cease in mid-2027, Musk says his company will continue manufacturing the vehicle through the end of the summer.

Elon Musk posted the update on X today. “In order to work through more of the Cybertruck order backlog, production will be extended through the end of summer 2027,” he wrote. Last week, Elon said that Cybertruck production would end in the middle of 2027. With summer lasting until September, we can expect approximately an additional quarter of Cybertruck production. 

The reason Tesla is ending Cybertruck production in the first place is to make room for the Cybercab, its long-discussed robotaxi. The autonomous vehicle is set to be produced at Tesla’s Texas gigafactory, where the Cybertruck is currently being manufactured.

The Cybertruck has been in production for a few years now and has been one of Tesla’s most talked-about cars. Tesla recently reported its latest round of financial earnings, which saw the company beat revenue and EPS expectations.
