Tesla pulls out all the stops as Cybertruck sales grind to a halt (www.arenaev.com)

Tesla Cybertruck appears to be facing significant sales challenges. After initial hype faded, and over a million reservations turned out to be as real as unicorns, Tesla is now enabling leasing options and free upgrades to move its inventory of the futuristic pickup truck. The company's recent silence on the Cybertruck, even omitting it from their earnings call, speaks volumes about the situation.

Tesla initially projected sales of 500,000 Cybertrucks annually and established production capacity at the Giga Texas for 250,000 units per year. After working through the initial reservation backlog with fewer than 40,000 deliveries, the automaker is now struggling to sell the remaining vehicles.

This isn’t Reddit. Why are you forward slashing? Jesus Chris, people left Reddit to leave Reddit. You left Reddit….to continue Reddit here? Also, stop using that fucking stupid forward slash s, it’s so lame. It’s the equivalent of saying “Oh yeah, I love standing on hot coals that’s sarcasm I don’t like standing on coals hahaha everybody look I’m joking.” We fucking get sarcasm. The ONLY reason to /s is you’re afraid of people downvoting you. Which is really really sad. You’re afraid of a fake internet grading scale. How embarrassing.
