Despite Elon Musk's love of the Cybertruck, a futuristic-looking electric pickup truck, it hasn't sold very well. When asked by investors about making a more conventional pickup, he called it a leader in its segment and offered a plan to sell it as an autonomous vehicle.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk overpromised sales of 250,000 Cybertrucks annually by 2025. The company has reached barely 8% of that target. The Tesla Cybertruck is the new Ford Edsel, taking the crown from one of the biggest flops in American car history.

Tesla is putting the brakes on production of the Model S and Model X. The automaker plans to end production of the large, electric sedan and SUV next quarter, effectively retiring its two longest-running electric vehicles.

Tesla is taking one of the boldest turns in its history, and it’s not just about electric cars anymore. After years of dominating headlines as a pioneer of electric vehicles, the company is phasing out its Model S and Model X as part of a strategic shift toward robotics,
