Tesla is ending Cybertruck production after U.S. buyers took just 20,237 of them in 2025, and every owner now holds a model its maker will stop building. That fact cuts both ways for anyone planning to sell. It removes future competition from new trucks, but the shutdown does nothing to create the buyers who never showed up in the first place. "It doesn't make sense to keep it going when it's not meeting its targets," Andy Palmer, former Aston Martin CEO, told Reuters.

Elon Musk announced the wind-down on X in early November, according to Reuters. myEV had already pulled listing data on Sept. 14, 2026, so the asking prices below predate the decision and the market has not yet priced it in. No one knows whether buyers will pay more for a truck no longer built, or stay away from used trucks as they did from new ones.

What do the listing numbers show?

The headline averages flatter the newer truck. Owners of 2025 Cybertrucks ask an average of $88,227 across 12 listings, while 2024 owners ask $72,357 across 48, according to myEV. U.S. sales fell 48% from 2024 to 2025, which leaves few 2025 owners who could list a truck at all. With only a dozen trucks behind it, the 2025 average could shift sharply if one or two more owners listed theirs.

The bottom of the ranges tells a harder story:

• No 2025 owner is asking below $75,990 — above the entire 2024 average.
• 2024 sellers compete with listings as low as $44,722, which drags that year's average down.
• The 2025 premium depends on which trucks happen to be listed, not on a set value for the model year.

A seller should price against the listed trucks closest to their own, not against either year's average.

Does the used-EV market penalize sellers?

Not the way many assume. At the current pace, dealers would need 42.8 days to sell their used EV stock, roughly the same as the 43 days for gas vehicles, myEV found. A Cybertruck seller gets no penalty for being electric and no head start either.

The surplus sits on new-car lots, where dealers would need 82.2 days to clear new EV inventory. The used side is where electric vehicles change hands at a normal rate — a reasonable place to sell, not a market where buyers bid up an electric pickup.

Timing matters. Used-vehicle prices across the whole market fell in October from September, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics data reported by FRED. Buyers keep taking used EVs at a normal pace while prices drift down. One month's drop does not make a trend, but a seller should not count on rising prices to lift the sale.

Can scarcity support the price?

The strongest card a seller holds is the closed production line itself. At the top of the range, the highest-spec Foundation Series trucks sometimes command 20% or more above sticker, according to myEV. That premium belongs only to the rarest, best-equipped trucks, and only some of the time. For most owners, the shutdown produces a discontinued model, not a collector's item, and buyers do not value those two things the same way.

Supply is also less scarce than it looks. Only 60 Cybertrucks were listed on myEV as of Sept. 14, 2026, but U.S. buyers bought 38,965 new ones in 2024 alone, according to Kelley Blue Book figures reported by ABC News. Trucks already on the road can be resold for years, and used-vehicle supply tends to grow later in the year as leased vehicles return to dealers. Holding out for a scarcer market carries its own risk.

The buyer pool is also hard to widen. Pedestrian-impact rules make the truck impossible to approve for Europe, ABC News reports, and domestic interest is weak across the category. "All of them lost the competition because electric pickups aren't popular in the US," automotive analyst Felipe Munoz said of the Cybertruck's electric rivals.

What about the recall record?

A buyer weighing an abandoned model also weighs the cost of keeping it running. Since first deliveries in late 2023, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued 11 recalls for the Cybertruck, ABC News reports. Any future fixes will come from a company winding the truck down, and those doubts can push buyers to offer less even as sellers ask more on the strength of scarcity.

The practical read for owners: a closed production line gives a seller a talking point, not a price floor.
