Summary

Tesla is struggling to sell its Cybertruck, even after applying discounts of up to $6,000. Inventories are piling up in the U.S. and Canada, with demand falling short of expectations.

The 2025 model qualifies for a $7,500 tax credit, but the 2024 model—still in stock—does not. There are also concerns that the tax credit may soon be eliminated.

Tesla’s goal of producing 250,000 Cybertrucks annually seems unrealistic, and analysts suggest a cheaper single-motor version may be needed to stimulate demand.

The Cybertruck’s hype appears to be fading.

    I had a BMW for a long time, and i was really quite the anti BMW driver, at least if you care what redditors say. I never rewlly understood the whole car cliché thing, BUT, fuck me i hate tesla drivers. Somehow they are always on their phones. Like phone on their head, not with the fancy bordcomputer. And because they are always on their phone, they can’t use turn signals. And even that aside, most tesla drivers seem to have a lot of trouble driving.
