That pile of unsold Cybertrucks in a Tesla parking lot???? ?????? ??????? ???????? ????? It's getting bigger by the day.
Despite its controversial styling and the fact that it gets recalled nearly every other month, Tesla Cybertruck was still the best-selling fully electric pick-up truck in America — until now.
According to data from S&P Global Mobility (via InsideEVs), in the first three months of 2025, there were 7,126 Cybertruck registrations in the U.S. That was only good enough for second place, behind Ford's F-150 Lightning which had 7,913 registrations. Next in line was the Chevrolet Silverado EV, followed by GMC Sierra EV, Rivian R1T, and the GMC Hummer EV.

Tesla doesn't officially share sales figures per each model. Another source reports Ford sold 7,181 F-150 Lightning units in Q1 2025, but that's still ahead of Cybertruck.
Wait, you're saying that this is not the best-selling EV truck in the U.S.? How is that even possible? Credit: Anadolu/Getty Images The numbers look even worse for Tesla if you compare them with the last quarter of 2024, when Cybertruck had 12,991 registrations. The quarter before that, Tesla sold 16,692 Cybertrucks, meaning that sales have now been on the decline for two consecutive quarters. Tesla recently introduced a more affordable Long Range model; whether that will be enough to increase sales remains to be seen.
Ford can celebrate this small victory, but the F-150 Lightning sales figures aren't that great given that the company sold 183,202 F-series trucks total in the first quarter of 2025. It appears that electric pick-up trucks aren't as lucrative as manufacturers once thought they'd be, especially if the CEO keeps antagonizing potential customers.
The Cybertruck is only available in the U.S., but Tesla sales are plummeting globally, too. The company is hoping that a redesigned Model Y — the company's best-selling model — will make things better, but so far the signs point to no.
