Tesla will stop making the Cybertruck in 2027 to focus on the Cybercab
Published
Tesla will announce the end of production of its electric pickup truck, the Cybertruck, in 2027. This was confirmed by Elon Musk, the company's chief executive. The decision is part of a change in strategy: the company wants to concentrate its resources on the Cybercab, a robotaxi, that is, a driverless car that would operate as a taxi.
The Cybertruck hit the market with a very distinctive design, featuring angular lines and a stainless steel body. Since its launch, the model has had limited sales success compared with other electric vehicles from the brand. For this reason, the decision to stop manufacturing it has drawn the attention of industry analysts.
Not all the details of the plan are known yet. It is also unclear what will happen to Cybertruck owners who have already bought the vehicle, or whether a maintenance or parts service for these vehicles will be available in the future. So far, Tesla has not published a complete list of the measures it will take.
The announcement comes at a time when Tesla is looking for new sources of growth. The company wants to demonstrate that it can offer autonomous transport services, a market that, according to the company, could be very important in the coming years. For readers in Spain, the news is relevant because Tesla is one of the best-known electric car brands in the world and its decisions influence the mobility sector.
