The truck that was supposed to revolutionize everything is flopping fast.

The truck that was supposed to revolutionize everything is flopping fast.

The hype is dead. The Tesla Cybertruck, once billed as the future of electric vehicles, is now looking like a commercial bust.

In the second quarter of 2025, Tesla sold just 4,306 Cybertrucks, down a staggering 50.8% from the 8,755 units it delivered during the same period last year, according to new data from Kelley Blue Book. This plunge is a signal that America’s most hyped truck may already be out of gas.

      Well that was another thing - Elon did the usual bait and switch, promising a vehicle one price and then delivering something costing nearly double. He did the same with the Model 3 - promising 30k but launch price was nearer 60k.

      Anyway I don’t think this vehicle is worth 40k either. At least the Model 3 was fundamentally sound design unlike the Cybertruck.
