Tesla’s futuristic beast—the Cybertruck—seems to be facing its first real crisis. What started as one of the most hyped vehicle launches of the decade is now struggling on multiple fronts, from mounting inventory to deep discounts and a major production slowdown.
đź”» Discounts Signal Deep Trouble
Tesla is sitting on over 2,400 unsold Cybertrucks—some nearly 6 months old, including the exclusive 'Foundation Series.' To clear this growing pile of inventory, Tesla has started slashing prices, with discounts reaching up to $10,000. On average, buyers are saving around $8,000—more than the U.S. federal tax credit.
But even with these juicy deals, only about 100 units have moved this month. That’s a red flag.
Production Slashed at Giga Texas
According to insider reports, Tesla has dramatically cut Cybertruck production at its Gigafactory in Texas. Workers report smaller shifts, team reductions, and staff being shifted over to Model Y lines. Some even say the factory “feels like a ghost town.”
Tesla was aiming to build 250,000 Cybertrucks a year by 2025, but so far it's only managing around 25,000 annually—just 10% of Elon Musk’s target.
Is the Dream Dying?
Tesla’s new Cybertruck variant, launched recently to reignite interest, lacked essential features and was poorly received. Critics and fans alike are wondering: is the bold dream of an angular electric pickup already fading?
Still, Elon Musk isn’t giving up. Tesla remains committed to the Cybertruck, though it’s becoming clear the road ahead won’t be smooth.
