$59k Base Dual-Motor AWD Cybertruck Begin Delivery!

Does anyone know when the production year changes from 2026 to 2027

All I can say with certainty is that the VIN I received this morning indicates a 2026. Cadillac apparently started production of one of its offerings of 2027 models a couple of days ago.

traditional auto makers generally start new model year after two weeks shutdown around July 4. My first full time job in the US was working for a first tier auto supplier. Tesla does things differently. Traditional auto dealers also know a lot more details about production schedule, I was able to talk to Cadillac dealer in 2014, make sure I ordered an Escalade that is 2015 2nd half model so I would get the new Cadillac logo.

Feb 20 order RN127133xxx No Vin Southern CA... Today I looked at my Tesla assist App and it changed my order date it said Feb21 order date, previously it said Feb 20th and the docs say Feb 20th... Tesla Assist screen capture from June 19th says Estimated Delivery Window July 12 August 23rd.... Today Tesla Asist says Oct 16 - Dec 11th... What kind of Musk madness is this?

My delivery dates disappeared a few days ago. I assume this thing won't show up until well into next year.

Only nice thing about the timeline is it gives me more time to see if Slate can actually deliver compelling vehicles. I am weighing trading my M3P for a SAWD against keeping the M3P and picking up a barebones Slate truck in addition.

I can promise, a RWD light small truck isn't going to be good in western NY winters

I just got the below message from Tesla. I was also allowed to complete steps 3 and 4. But no access to an actual VIN was available. Any others had this experience? And if so, when did the next things happen?

can you pick a delivery location by choice ?

Question for you all, I am currently taking delivery in California at the seaside location near Monterey. Talking to them, their cybertrucks have been slow to come in there. Would it make sense to switch to a big location in San Fran in hopes that it would speed up delivery for me? I'm a 2/25 SAWD reservation holder

Delivery scheduling remains pretty mysterious. It might help and it might not. Whether it makes sense or not has to be judged with the time and inconvenience of the trip (and most likely a second driver or public transit) against the possibility of an earlier delivery.

Yes, though I am not sure that is directly offered in the app. I was originally set up to take delivery in NW Austin. I texted (in the app) a while back requesting delivery be shifted to the delivery center across the street from the Gigafactory where the truck is made. Hoping to schedule a Friday delivery and combine delivery with a factory tour. They only do the tours on Friday.

Does anyone know when the production year changes from 2026 to 2027

No sooner than mid-November based on previous years.

Musk has said that HW5 is not for cars and that HW4 is adequate for FSD. Expect first year’s chips to go to Optimus robots.

Here is Copilot’s expectation for 2027 model changes:

• PCS v2
• Suspension v3
• Thermal system v2
• Structural pack v2.1
• Steering rack hardening
• Interior refinements
• Exterior fitment improvements
• Charging curve updates
• Drive‑mode logic improvements

In the Delivery Status app mine updated to Oct 16 - Dec 11. I have a 1129xxxxx reservation number. 2/22 was the day I decided to start the order.

I almost struck a deal late last year for a 2026 RWD Cybertruck from an individual who won the truck in a contest.

Thankfully the deal didn‘t pan out but the build date was September, 2025. The window sticker showed it was a 2026 model. I am assuming this year will be the same.

Personally I would not like getting a late 2026 on the cusp on when 2027 models start production.

Your RN# aligns with some of the other 2/20 order dates we're tracking.

As far as "What kind of Musk madness is this?".... the answer is in your question.

i think the most accurate photo for all of this is the claw game. It seems like VIN's are just randomly assigned.

I give Slate credit for diving into a tough EV market but every time I see one, my mind conjurs up this image:

Tesla doesn’t really do things by model year. They change things weekly if it suits them. I have heard they start to switch the year on paperwork late in November, but I’ve always bought spring Teslas, so I can’t say for certain.
I think most interested in a 27, are interested in HW5. If HW4 is any indication, it made its first appearance in late Feb of 2023. So getting a ‘27 won’t guaranty ‘27 goodies.

HW5 won't be in cars for a long time. Elon has stated that they are for the optimius robots first. I'm guessing another 3-4 years minimum seeing as they haven't even started manufacturing the robots. They might do a HW4.5 or something equivalent, but there are no reports saying anything other than HW4 will exist for the foreseeable future.
