Unplugged Performance offers to take Tesla's Cybertruck line, fund it via investor consortium
JoeJustice · x · 2026-11-11
Tesla tuner Unplugged Performance published an open offer: full support for prioritizing Cybercab, with Unplugged taking over the Cybertruck line—funded by an investor consortium at no cost to Tesla's floor space, headcount, or focus, and with battery cells prioritized for Cybercab.
Tesla would gain incremental profit via license fees plus FSD and Robotaxi network revenue per vehicle. Unplugged would build the Cybertruck, a three-row CyberSUV, and an unmanned CyberCargo hauler. Former Tesla factory employee JoeJustice publicly endorsed the idea, saying he'd invest or even volunteer to work there.
