Elon Musk confirmed Tesla will cut Cybertruck output mid-next year to boost Cybercab production. That single line ignited the biggest Tesla Cybertruck cancelled update chatter in months.
The move comes after months of slowing registrations. Only 17,000 Cybertrucks hit U.S. roads in the first eight months of 2025, down 30 percent the following year. Rivian R1T numbers tell a similar story. Demand for electric trucks is simply softer than SUVs right now.
What the numbers actually show
Tesla still holds hundreds of thousands of Cybertruck reservations, yet many owners wonder if their $59,000 orders will survive. Early buyers who locked the old price can still change configurations and keep the discount. New orders now start at $82,000 and the base model is no longer listed.
Tesla Wall Connector giveaway
While the Cybertruck story dominates headlines, we are running a Tesla Wall Connector giveaway. Like the video and drop the secret code in Gleam for extra entries. The latest code was "corgi" and we have six days left.
Tesla Optimus 20k price
Elon also floated a $20,000 Tesla Optimus 20k price target. I linked the full breakdown here: https://www.denniscw.com/blog/tesla-optimus-20k-price-elon-musk-update. At that number the robot becomes a real household tool, though leasing looks more likely than outright sales.
Tesla Supercharger update and Tesla Model 3 next
A separate Tesla Supercharger update showed damaged charge ports after repeated use. EV Jack adapters prevent that wear. On the vehicle side, speculation is growing that the Tesla Model 3 next could face the same production questions as the Cybertruck. https://www.denniscw.com/blog/tesla-cybertruck-production-cancelled-elon-update has the full timeline.
Bottom line: the Cybertruck is not cancelled, just scaled back. Owners who already ordered at the old price are sitting on the best deal. Everyone else should watch inventory and order before any further changes hit.
