Tesla will wind down Cybertruck production in Texas around mid-2027

Tesla's Cybertruck now has an end date. Elon Musk announced on X Friday that the company will wind down the pickup at around the middle of next year to "make room for increased production". WBAP says he did not say whether production would move to another factory. CBS Texas, citing Forbes, says the Texas plant is the only one that currently makes it.

The Cybertruck went from unveiling to a planned wind-down

  1. 2019Tesla unveiled the Cybertruck.
  2. July 2023The first Cybertruck rolled off the Austin-area production line.
  3. Feb. 2026 produced its first .
  4. Sept. 3Tesla began offering Cybercab robotaxi rides in Austin.
  5. Nov. 6Musk announced the Cybertruck wind-down on X.
  6. Mid-2027Tesla plans to wind down Cybertruck production at Gigafactory Texas.

Sources: WBAP, CBS Texas

The move follows a steep drop in estimated sales: Kelley Blue Book put U.S. Cybertruck sales at 38,965 in 2024 and 20,237 in 2025. Tesla is also growing its robotaxi business in Texas, including Dallas, where unsupervised service started in April using Model Y vehicles, not Cybercabs.

News Notes

Cowboys

The Cowboys placed rookie first-round pick Malachi Lawrence on injured reserve with an ankle injury, so he'll miss at least four games, and his earliest return is Dec. 7 against the Seahawks. He hurt the ankle in the 33-30 overtime loss to the Cardinals on Nov. 1. Dallas activated Marist Liufau and elevated Jordan Hudson and James Mitchell from the practice squad ahead of Sunday's game against the Colts. Defensive coordinator Christian Parker said Thursday that Lawrence's "arrow was certainly pointed up". Fort Worth Star-TelegramDallas Hoops JournalDallas Hoops Journal

The Wrap

Morez Johnson Jr. had a night off the bench Friday. The Mavericks' ninth overall pick in June pulled down 17 rebounds, 10 of them offensive, in 23 minutes, 48 seconds as Dallas beat Utah 112-100. He'd averaged 3.1 boards through his first eight games, and the Mavs don't call plays for him. Glue guy, indeed.
