CANCELED! Tesla Cybertruck Is Dead

In what must be the most shocking news story of the year, Tesla CEO Elon Musk has confirmed production of the long-awaited Cybertruck has been canceled. The reason? Ongoing development costs have far exceeded the original budget. The controversial-looking EV truck is no longer a viable business...

Personally, I found it to be hideous, but it sure got a lot of press.

You may be right. The article sounded awfully serious though. And I imagine that this will, for the short term at least, affect their stock prices. Not to mention disappointing customers. Let's see how this plays out.
Edit- Maybe Carbuzz is playing with us, not Elon. I haven't seen any other news about it.

@baydreamer Think about it statistically. Their are over a 200k+ reservations for this vehicle. They are not going to cancel it as 1 it is part of his plan. 2 he would lose millions if not Billions of dollars and the stock will take a great deep hit for months and months. It will be hard to recover unless he has another project truck he been working on behind the scenes that will be released when the cybertruck was going to be.

Yep, I believe it's just an APRIL FOOL'S DAY spoof! Seems none of the EV vehicle info sites are reporting any such news. Of course, this would be major NEWS in the EV world! Tesla's stock price is holding up pretty well on a generally down day. So, I doubt it's real.

Dang, I was so hoping this was true…I am dreading seeing those monstrosities on the road 🤮

The last sentence gives it away: "A Tesla source later admitted that this entire article is utter nonsense."

There’s over One million reasons NOT to cancel the Cybertruck!

Tesla Has An Estimated 1.3M Cybertruck Reservations Worth $80B

The interest for the Tesla Cybretruck is astronomical, and the electric pickup truck isn't coming to market any time soon. How will Tesla even build so many?
