Ask what Korea is talking about.

Tesla will phase out Cybertruck production at its Texas gigafactory around mid-2027, CEO Elon Musk said on Friday, after years of weak sales for the futuristic pickup once touted as a rival to legacy trucks, the Korea Times reports. Yonhap says Musk called it "the end of an era," and Maeil Business reports the model, which G-Dragon also rode, is being discontinued. Dong-A Ilbo notes Tesla planned to sell 500,000 units a year but sold only about 20,000, and will instead expand production of its Cybercab autonomous taxi to speed its shift toward self-driving and robotics. Korean outlets frame the move as a strategic pivot, with Business Korea and others noting the broader context of automakers facing sales slumps and labor disputes, such as Hyundai Motor's Genesis line halt, though those are separate events.
