Tesla Cybertrucks are gathering dust, even with $6,000 discount
As unwanted Cybertruck inventory rises, Tesla is forced to introduce discounts. But even $6,000 savings aren't bringing buyers into showrooms.
Summary
Tesla is struggling to sell its Cybertruck, even after applying discounts of up to $6,000. Inventories are piling up in the U.S. and Canada, with demand falling short of expectations.
The 2025 model qualifies for a $7,500 tax credit, but the 2024 model—still in stock—does not. There are also concerns that the tax credit may soon be eliminated.
Tesla's goal of producing 250,000 Cybertrucks annually seems unrealistic, and analysts suggest a cheaper single-motor version may be needed to stimulate demand.
The Cybertruck’s hype appears to be fading.

I would seriously consider buying one for $6,000
Not $6k OFF, just 6k total because that would make it the cheapest new vehicle available and it’s worth that shitbox status
I wouldn't get one if they paid me $6000.
If they paid me 6k to take it, I would. I’d park it and use it as a whole house backup battery. I have no interest in driving around a piece of shit swasticar.
I would. I imagine the battery could be sold for a decent sum, and scrap prices for stainless steel usually aren't bad.
Foreal dude! 6k is chump change, they really think anyone's gonna waste cash on a death trap just cuz it's dropped by 6k? Theyr twacked!!
Not if it was just a one off. My car is fine and people dont flip me off when I drive it.
lol there is that.
6k though, haha I’m getting it at that point and I’ll just paint “fuck Elon” all around so folks know I only got it because it was cheap.
I do think the truck will have a cult like following one day by collectors who were 17 when it came out but 75 at that point.
If Elon didn’t have his nose in every piece of business around the planet and go out of his way to be famous/infamous, someone could have used it as a movie prop like the DeLorean.
In about 20 years I expect the Cybertruck will be on par with the DeLorean with the complicated history to boot.
Idk i think it might, but the problem is the Honda 0 series looks like it's about to do what the cyber truck clearly was going for aesthetically, but like, good looking.
If it winds up an early, ugly, and politically controversial interpretation on a style that winds up being picked up its not likely to hold the DeLorean position.
