Musk Extends Tesla Cybertruck Production Through End of Summer 2027

Tesla CEO Elon Musk said Nov. 11 that Cybertruck production will continue through the end of summer 2027, giving Tesla more time to work through its order backlog. The new timeline pushes production past Musk’s earlier plan to wind down output at Gigafactory Texas around mid-2027, a shift intended to make room for increased Cybercab production.

Musk wrote: “In order to work through more of the Cybertruck order backlog, production will be extended through the end of summer 2027.” He did not give a final production date or say how many additional trucks Tesla expects to build.

On Nov. 9, Musk said Tesla would try to build as many Cybertrucks as possible before closing the line in about eight months. He also said Tesla would have to return deposits to many customers, but gave no count.
