Detailed Factual Report
Tesla is extending a deadline it set to finish Cybertruck production to give the company more time to fulfill its orders, CEO Elon Musk announced Wednesday.
In a social media post , Musk said Tesla will continue to manufacture the Cybertruck through the end of summer 2027, giving the car company a few additional months to work through its backlog. Last week, Musk originally said Tesla would wind down production by mid-2027 when he broke the Cybertruck news to customers.
Days later, he revealed Tesla would have to return some customers' deposits, noting that the Cybertruck order rate "far exceeds" the electric vehicle maker's production rate.
"We will try to make as many as possible before shutting down the line in about 8 months, but will have to return deposits for a lot of people," he said on X.
