Tesla seems to be ramping up Cybertruck manufacturing early as an honest fleet has been noticed at Gigafactory Texas.

After Tesla delivered solely 10 Cybertrucks on the launch occasion final month, there have been some issues that Tesla would pull a “Tesla Semi launch” and solely ship just a few extra automobiles all through the following few months. Nevertheless, it appears prefer it received’t be the case.

We already reported on how Tesla began reaching out to reservation holders to transform their reservations into orders, with deliveries beginning proper now in Texas and California.

The Cybertruck is at the moment manufacturing constrained, but it surely appears like Tesla is already ramping up and appears to have the ability to ship the brand new electrical pickup truck in vital numbers.

Joe Tegtmeyer, a drone pilot who usually flies over Gigafactory Texas, noticed a fleet of practically 40 Cybertrucks on the manufacturing facility:

As per Tegtmeyer’s observations, 19 Cybertrucks have been being prepped for delivery, just a few extra in testing areas, and about 15 extra parked on the south finish of the manufacturing facility.

The quantity of Cybertruck exercise on the plant is an efficient signal that Tesla is actively ramping up manufacturing.

Nevertheless, it should nonetheless take a very long time for Tesla to work by way of its backlog of reservations even when the upper costs introduced final month end in cancellations.

CEO Elon Musk mentioned that he expects it might take Tesla about 18 months to ramp as much as a quantity manufacturing of about 250,000 models yearly.

However manufacturing ramps aren’t easy. Will probably be fascinating to trace Cybertruck manufacturing within the coming months and see how rapidly Tesla ramps as much as 1,000 models per week.

Electrek’s Take

When is your finest guess for Tesla reaching a manufacturing charge of 1,000 Cybertrucks per week? That’s a pleasant milestone. I may see Tesla testing that stage pretty early in 2024. Almost definitely by the top of the primary quarter.
