- Elon Musk says Tesla will refund many Cybertruck deposits before the production line closes.
- The company plans to redirect factory space, equipment and labor toward its autonomous Cybercab.
- The December 3 annual meeting is the next confirmed corporate date for shareholders.
On Monday, November 9, 2026, Reuters reported that Tesla will refund deposits to many Cybertruck customers because outstanding orders exceed the number of vehicles the company can build before the line closes. The Reuters report carried by the Miami Herald said Elon Musk expects the line to shut in about eight months.
Tesla stock traded at 337.83 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 16:47 CET on Monday, November 9, 2026, 4.37 percent above the Xetra close of Friday, November 6. The quote was 4.78 percent above the 322.43-euro level cited in the latest relevant report published on November 7, providing a fresh market development separate from the Xetra day comparison.
Cybertruck gives way to Cybercab
Musk said Tesla would try to complete as many existing Cybertruck orders as possible before closing the line, but many customers would receive their deposits back. Tesla has not disclosed how many buyers will be affected or how the refund process will work.
The production change shifts factory space, equipment and labor toward the Cybercab, Tesla's autonomous vehicle for its robotaxi strategy. For investors, the move creates an execution trade-off: Tesla is limiting the remaining contribution from the electric pickup while betting that additional Cybercab capacity will generate greater long-term value.
The transition also leaves near-term tasks for Tesla, including maximizing Cybertruck output, identifying customers whose orders cannot be fulfilled and preparing the Texas facility for the new program. The company has not provided a detailed timetable for the final Cybertruck build or the resulting Cybercab capacity.
