Tesla will stop making the Cybertruck next year, according to CEO Elon Musk, who said on X that the company will use the factory space to build more two-seater Cybercab robotaxis.
The decision to wind down the futuristic, steel-clad EV comes after just a few short years of underwhelming sales. When Musk handed over the first few Cybertrucks in late 2023, he predicted Tesla would sell around 250,000 per year. It was supposed to be such a cornerstone of Tesla’s future that, before construction began, the company talked about its Texas factory as the “Cybertruck factory.” But Tesla has instead sold just tens of thousands — total — over the last three years.
I thought so as well, but then when you think about it… most taxis are kind of just the back seat? Still weird not to make it a three seater bench though. I guess they want you to book two if you want more than 2 people, cha-ching.
Tell me you don’t live in London without saying you don’t live in London.

Most taxis are not just the back seat.
Yes they are.
I think you have taxi and cop car confused.
And the boot in that thing is truly enormous… something a taxi does need.
This is true. I would budget a large suitcase per person. However with only 2 people the need for a large trunk is much less.
