Tesla Announces Cybertruck Deliveries In November, Claims 125K Production Capacity


An anonymous reader quotes a report from Electrek:

Today, Tesla released (PDF) its Q3 2023 financial results and as expected, there was an update about Cybertruck in there. In the quarterly presentation, Tesla mentioned that “pilot production” of the Cybertruck has begun: “At Gigafactory Texas, we began pilot production of the Cybertruck, which remains on track for initial deliveries this year.” While that doesn’t include any new information, in the photo section of the presentation, Tesla added a comment confirming that “deliveries will begin in November 2023.”

The previous official comment from CEO Elon Musk was that Tesla was aiming for the end of Q3, which ended last month. Interestingly, Tesla also updated its “installed annual vehicle capacity” and added capacity for the Cybertruck for the first time. Surprisingly, Tesla already claims a capacity of “over 125,000 Cybertrucks” at Gigafactory Texas.

In a company post on X, Tesla specifies that its first Cybertruck deliveries are scheduled for November 30th at Giga Texas.

These are the highlights of Tesla’s Q3 shareholder update, as mentioned in the company’s X post: “Cybertruck production remains on track for later this year, with first deliveries scheduled for November 30th at Giga Texas.
