Tesla Cybertruck Giga Texas wind-down mid-2027; floor space for Cybercab robotaxi — Musk
In an X post on November 6, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said the company "will be winding down production of the Cybertruck at Gigafactory Texas around the middle of next year to make room for increased Cybercab production." Reuters, citing the post, reported Tesla did not immediately comment further, and Musk did not say whether Cybertruck assembly would move elsewhere or stop entirely. Gigafactory Texas is the only known Tesla plant set up for the truck's specialized components, Reuters/CNA noted.

Cybercab is Tesla's purpose-built two-seat robotaxi; Cybertruck is the stainless-steel pickup built at the same Texas campus. Cybertruck lead engineer Wes Morrill wrote on X that the truck "was an incredible technology development platform and lives on through Cybercab," according to CNA.
Servospace take: a factory-capacity allocation, not a robotaxi launch. Musk is trading truck volume at Giga Texas for robotaxi build rate. Open: residual Cybertruck rate, any second plant, and actual Cybercab volumes.
