Aftermarket firm Unplugged Performance offers to take over the Cybertruck line
California's Unplugged Performance publicly offered on X to take over Tesla's Cybertruck line with investor-consortium funding — an outside reaction to the mid-2027 production end, with no response from Tesla yet.
Per Teslarati, Hawthorne, California-based Tesla aftermarket firm Unplugged Performance posted a public offer on X on Nov. 10. If Tesla hands over the Cybertruck line, it would run it with investor-consortium funding and without using Tesla's factory space or staff.
The firm said Cybercab would get battery cells first and it would wait in line behind. It pitched a structure where Tesla earns per-vehicle license fees plus FSD and robotaxi network revenue, and also proposed a three-row CyberSUV and an unmanned CyberCargo hauler. It runs UP.FIT, a unit building police and fleet Cybertrucks.
Investment size, license rate and volume targets were not disclosed, and the firm said the inquiry only gauges interest and is not a securities offering. Tesla had not responded as of the report; this is a single-source story.
