Tesla Stops Most Cybertruck Orders, Raises Cyberbeast Price $7,500 Ahead of Production Wind-Down

TSLA has stopped taking new Cybertruck orders for every trim except the top Cyberbeast, and raised the Cyberbeast's price by $7,500 to $109,990 from $102,490, Tesla Oracle reported on November 10. The Cyberbeast had already risen from $99,990 in a November 5 price increase.

The changes follow Musk's November 6 announcement that Tesla will wind down Cybertruck production at Gigafactory Texas around the middle of next year to make room for more Cybercab robotaxi production. On Monday he wrote that the "Cybertruck order rate far exceeds our production rate" and that Tesla will "try to make as many as possible before shutting down the line in about 8 months, but will have to return deposits for a lot of people". He said the decision reflects the opportunity cost of the truck's complexity, not unprofitability.

Sales never approached early targets. Musk predicted in 2023 that Tesla would sell 250,000 to 500,000 Cybertrucks a year. Tesla sold 20,237 in the US last year, down 48% from 38,965 in 2024, according to Kelley Blue Book data cited by 24/7 Wall St., and in the third quarter of 2026 it delivered 8,295 "other models", a category that also includes the Model S and Model X.

What to watch: how many deposits Tesla refunds, whether the remaining Cyberbeast backlog holds at the higher price, and the pace of the Cybercab ramp that replaces the truck at Giga Texas. Tesla does not report Cybertruck profitability separately, so the margin effect of the wind-down will be hard to isolate.
