Demand for the angular electric pickup has continued to falter in the first quarter, making room for a new king.
The Tesla Cybertruck has lost the top spot on the list of best-selling electric pickup trucks in the United States. After finishing 2024 as a best-seller, Tesla’s only pickup has fallen to second place in the first quarter of this year.
After the first three months, the Cybertruck had amassed 7,126 registrations. The Ford F-150 Lightning overtook it with 7,913 registrations, according to the most recent data from S&P Global Mobility. The Chevrolet Silverado EV finished the first quarter in third place, followed by the GMC Sierra EV, Rivian R1T and GMC Hummer EV.
I see them annoyingly frequently in my part of Texas, although I guess my experience is skewed, because I live near their factory in Austin and I also travel for work.
The number of cars they’ve left rotting in the factory’s back yard grows day by day, though. Which warms my heart.
