A record amount of Tesla’s parked together reveals the astonishing Cybertruck production run rate

The question on everyone’s minds is: how’s Tesla going to deal with the demand for the Cybertruck?

Apparently, Tesla has been receiving close to 10,000 orders per day since the delivery event back in November.

As for how the EV maker’s coping with the demand – who actually knows – but drone footage gives reason to be hopeful that production has been ramped up.

The footage, captured by Joe Tegtmeyer, with a drone at Tesla’s Texas gigafactory, shows a record 140 Cybertrucks ready to be delivered to customers.

That many Cybertrucks in one place at one time is an unreal sight.

However, what’s really interesting is what can be extrapolated from the scene.

Another record over 140 Cybertrucks on site today, about 95 at the E testing & calibration lot, 15 at the SW corner temp staging lot & ~ 30 on the W outbound lot, with more departing on transport truck. Some have what appear to be VINs written on the driver side windows! pic.twitter.com/quGoaTX4jf

Throughout the course of the day at Giga Texas, Cybertrucks are loaded on semi-trucks and shipped across the US.

At the same time, new Cybertrucks hot off the production are being stationed in the factory’s parking lot.

That being said, despite there being 140 in the parking lot, it’s nigh on impossible to work out how many units of the Cybertruck are being produced in a single day.

But, if we’re take the 140 number at face value and estimate that’s the number Tesla is able to produce in a day, production may well be ramping up better than hoped.

140 units per day equates to a production run of more than 50,000 Cybertrucks per year, which isn’t bad going.

It’s fair to say, the Cybertruck looks like it’s going to be sold out for the forseeable.

Tesla CEO, Elon Musk, previously stated scaling production of a vehicle like the Cybertruck is hard.

Musk foresees “enormous challenges” in ramping up Cybertruck production, mainly because the pickup requires new manufacturing processes.

He estimates that it’ll take around 18 months until the EV pickup is cashflow positive.

It won’t be until some point in 2025 – once Tesla has navigated these production challenges – when the company will be producing “roughly” 250,000 units a year, Musk predicts.

If the volume of new orders coming in continues, Tesla is going to have a major problem on its hands.

They’ll need to get all hands on deck to continue ramping up production – just like they did for the Model 3.

Speaking of which, recent pictures give a first look at the new and improved Tesla Model 3 Performance.
