Musk Tempers Expectations on Cybertruck Production Amid Delays and Uncertainty

Tesla CEO Elon Musk said he wanted to "temper expectations" about Cybertruck production in Tesla's Q3 earnings call.

The Cybertruck was revealed in 2019 with promises of bulletproof windows and revolutionary design, but production has faced delays and changes.

Musk said Tesla "dug our own grave" with the Cybertruck and warned of challenges reaching volume production profitably.

It's uncertain if there's enough demand for 250,000 electric pickups per year as Tesla hopes amid high prices and limited range.

Unlike Tesla's other models, the Cybertruck has little appeal outside North America, and the sub-$40,000 price is gone.
