what happened

Elon Musk said on X that Tesla will stop producing Cybertruck at its Texas factory around mid-2027 to free up people, equipment and floor space for Cybercab expansion. He said the backlog is larger than what the company can fill before the line is dismantled, so an extra shift will be added.

Separately, Nikkei reported that Terafab, the semiconductor project shared by Tesla and SpaceX, has presented procurement plans to Japanese equipment makers and is aiming for 1 million wafers a month from 2032. According to the report, suppliers welcome a potentially large customer but have questioned some of its unusual demands. TSLA shares slipped nearly 1% overnight, then rose 4% to $358.22 on Monday after a 10% weekly drop.

why it matters

For investors, the shift in priorities matters: Tesla is redirecting production capacity toward its robotaxi push, while battery availability, the company says, still limits its vehicle output ramp. Year to date, the stock has lagged the other Magnificent Seven members, down about 20%.
