. It’s a notable milestone, but if that was the output every week this year, that would still just be a little more than 50,000 trucks. Though, a reader pointed something out I hadn’t caught — at 1,000 units a week, it’s probably already beating the Ford F-150 Lightning. It’s also already beating the Rivian R1T.
In the 4th quarter of 2023, Ford sold 11,905 units of the F-150 Lightning. In the 1st quarter of this year, though, the total was 7,743 Lightnings. Naturally, with about 13 weeks in a quarter, if Tesla gets to an average of 1,000 Cybertrucks a week, that’s 13,000 in a quarter. With Tesla saying that Cybertruck production capacity is slowly but steadily ramping up, an average of 1,000 units a week in the 2nd quarter seems very possible.
As for the Cybertruck, I assume it will get ramped up to well beyond 1,000 units a week, and perhaps even to 2,000 units a week by summer, so I expect it will take the lead in the 2nd quarter. Overall, like a reader,published this week, based on the production equipment in place, they expect that they have production capacity for >125,000 Cybertrucks a year at the moment .
