Tesla's unconventional Cybertruck electric pickup truck may soon be heading for an autonomous, commercial future, the company's CEO Elon Musk said

A comment under one of our most popular stories deserves to be explored. Is the Tesla Cybertruck actually not a “truck” in the traditional sense, but rather a work of art intended to be appreciated? Hear us out.

Despite Elon Musk's love of the Cybertruck, a futuristic-looking electric pickup truck, it hasn't sold very well. When asked by investors about making a more conventional pickup, he called it a leader in its segment and offered a plan to sell it as an autonomous vehicle.

The Cybertruck was America's best-selling electric pickup in 2024. Then sales were cut in half.

One Cybertruck owner has clocked 100,000 miles through dust storms, deep snow, and a literal "ballistic test" on his own driver’s side door.

Other Tesla vehicles also struggled to attract buyers, with sales of its X, S and Y models all sinking from the previous year.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk overpromised sales of 250,000 Cybertrucks annually by 2025. The company has reached barely 8% of that target. The Tesla Cybertruck is the new Ford Edsel, taking the crown from one of the biggest flops in American car history.

The Cybertruck is not doing well in America, so Tesla is trying to cover for the lost ground in other markets. Now, it's taken the pickup truck to the UAE

Prior to launching the Tesla Cybertruck, Elon Musk suggested they could sell as many as 500,000 of them per year. However, as sales of the electric pickup never really skyrocketed in the United States, Tesla has started selling the Cybertruck in more markets, most recently in the Middle East.
