Tesla’s newly completed Cybertunnel, designed exclusively for transporting Cybertrucks out of Giga Texas, is now fully operational. While its construction briefly delayed Cybertruck production, causing a short three-day pause, the long-term benefits far outweigh the short setback.
With the tunnel now open and operational, Tesla can seamlessly move Cybertrucks from the production floor to the transport area.
Creating the Cybertunnel
This tunnel is anything but boring. Excavated by Elon Musk’s Boring Company, which specializes in cutting-edge tunneling technology, this 1,355-foot passage was built explicitly for the Cybertruck—and that’s exactly what’s rolling through it.
The Boring Co. completed the entire tunnel in just nine weeks—a testament to Prufrock 3’s capabilities.
With a major highway in the way, we needed a faster & safer way to connect production with our end of line shop & outbound lot
This Cybertunnel isn’t just for the sake of making a grand appearance. It’s responsible for bringing completed Cybertrucks directly from the Giga Texas production line to the outbound shipping lot - which happens to be located on the other side of a major highway. This allows Tesla to quickly load vehicles going anywhere in North America.
By building the underground tunnel, Tesla connects its loading lot to the factory and avoids using public roads or having to load up Cybertrucks at the factory, where space is constrained. Crossing the highway on a level crossing would also mean the trucks would need to be registered and plated, as they’re no longer on private property.

The Cybertunnel has interior and exterior lighting. The external face on the outbound lot side looks like a Cybertruck, complete with a Cybertruck lightbar in the front. After Cybertrucks make their way through the tunnel, they take a right turn at the exit of the tunnel and make their way to the outbound lot, all prepped and ready for loading.
The map above shows the Cybertunnel in red and the previous route that Cybertrucks would have to take in blue. The highway is highlighted in yellow.
The Cybertunnel drastically reduces the time and effort it takes to get the Cybertruck to the loading lot. Tesla is all about efficiencies and vertical integration, and this is just one more example of how Tesla is able to reduce vehicle costs by making vehicles more efficiently.

Like clockwork, it’s time for the opportunity to submit questions for Tesla’s Q1 2025 Earnings Call.

Earnings Q1 2025 Questions
Tesla is gearing up for its Q1 2025 Earnings Call, providing an opportunity for shareholders to once again submit and vote on questions they want to be addressed during the event.

Questions and voting are conducted through Say, a third-party platform that validates share ownership. Once your ownership is verified, you can use your shares to vote, with your vote weight corresponding to the number of shares you hold. Submitting a question initially gives it votes equivalent to your number of shares.
Below, we also compiled a list of the top questions going into the Earnings Call, which takes place a week from today.
The Earnings Call itself will take place on April 22, at 5:30 PM EDT (2:30 PM PT). Links to the live stream will be made available closer to the event. A recap of the key points will also be provided as usual, so stay tuned for that in the hours after the call.
