Is it the end of the road for Tesla’s Cybertruck?

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has said production of the firm’s Cybertruck is “winding down” in Texas, to focus on its self-driving Cybercab cars.

The model is only produced at Tesla’s Austin base, and he did not clarify if manufacturing would be moved elsewhere or simply cease.

The Cybertruck has received a mixed response since its launch in 2023, with some praising its individuality and others simply labelling it ugly.

It has also suffered from disappointing sales, quality problems and recalls.

BBC technology reporter Shiona McCallum has this report.
